This informative post will be posted on Saturday along with my usual writing. We can all appreciate some of the lesser known facts from around the world.
Rain falls at a maximum speed of eighteen miles per hour.
Both President Lyndon Johnson and tenor Luciano Pavarotti spent several years as elementary school teachers after graduating from college.
These facts have been discovered in I NEVER KNEW THAT by David Hoffman (2009).

One more curious trivial fact: The school where I will be teaching is located on the same city block in Houston where LBJ taught. The old school (Sam Houston High School) is now gone, but it changed locations (now Sam Houston Math, Science, and Technology). And a new school (Kinder High School for the Performing and Visual Arts) was built.

Awesome fact! I always thought it was significant that LBJ was a schoolteacher.
