A few examples for ya:

4. Crows apparently like the taste of windscreen-wiper blades.

19. The collective noun for rhinos is "crash".

30. The Sydney Harbour Bridge contains just 16 nuts and bolts. The rest is held together by rivets, because it doesn't need to be dismantled.

Theres another 97 there...

i'm all for bridges that don't need dismantling.

PS how many plastic bags do YOU have? I'm sure my household has at least 100. All bundled up into one jumbo bag, on a peg on the inside face of the door to the understairs cupboard.
