Albert Einstein was born on March 14th, 1879.
The numerical date for that day is 3.14.1879. 3.14 is mathematical Pi. Einstein was a math guy.
*I only know this because we chose that date, next year, to get married*

The phrase "rule of thumb" is derived from an old English law which stated that you couldn't beat your wife with anything wider than your thumb

Flamingos are pink because of the pigment from all the shrimp they eat.
(or maybe I'm a sucker and I'll believe anything somebody tells me?)

Actually the flamingo thing is close to true ... it's not shrimp however (since shrimp don't actually turn pink until they're cooked!).
Flamingos' coloring comes from the different kinds of algae and microscopic sized sea creatures they eat. I believe Caribbean flamingoes are supposed to have the most vibrant colors because of the types of algae there.

And while we are on the subject of flamingos, plastic lawn ornament flamingos outnumber real flamingos in the US.
