Here are some random facts for you.
1. Radiohead recorded most of “OK Computer” at Jane Seymour’s 15th century mansion in England, while she was in the U.S. filming “Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman”. The band said she just handed them the keys, and told them to feed the cat. They spent two months recording there.
2. No American has ever died outside of the Earth’s atmosphere. The three people who DID die were Russian cosmonauts on the Soyuz 11 in 1971. It depressurized and killed them.
3. There are only three states that have both “small square burger” fast food chains, White Castle and Krystal: Kentucky, Tennessee, and Florida. Other than that, White Castle is mostly in the north and Krystal is in the south.
4. “Billboard” started in 1894 as a magazine about ACTUAL billboard advertising. It started focusing more on music in the 1930s.
5. Marlon Brando had 16 children, and it’s believed he’s the father of a 17th, a woman named Linda Carroll. Linda went on to have a daughter, Courtney Love. So it’s possible Brando was Courtney Love’s grandfather.
