Thought I'd start a thread about random facts so people can just post things in here that they find interesting that other people might not know (plus then I can learn loads of random things...).

Decided to start this thread as I found out today the the person who voices Optimus Prime also voices Eeyore in various Winnie the Pooh things. Never knew that before and thought it was random as they are extremely different (imagine if the two got mixed up one day... :lol

If you had 3 quarters, 4 dimes, and 4 pennies, you would have $1.19 total.....this also happens to be the largest amount of money, in coins, without being able to make change for a dollar

Card trivia? Love that stuff.

King of Spades is David, King of Hears is Charlemagne, King of Diamonds is Julius Caesar, King of Clubs is Alexander. The Queens and Jacks are also named, spades hearts, diamonds, clubs as follows:

Queens: Pallas, Judith, Rachel, Argine
Jacks: Ogier, La Hire, Hector, Lancelot (or Judas Maccabeus depending upon which set of trivia you like)
