As GamerDude has talked about in the past, he's a huge fan of trivia, and a lot of the little nuggets of knowledge he's learned over the years have been stuck in his head since childhood. This week, he shares some of that trivia. He talks about how John Tyler, the 10th President of the United States, still has a living grandson. He talks about how Marilyn Monroe and Queen Elizabeth II of England were not only contemporaries, but actually met each other. And, he talks about George Washington's knowledge of dinosaurs, and how recently famous actors and artists like Picasso, Salvador Dali and Charlie Chaplin were alive.
GamerDude also talks about how the list of coincidences he read when he was younger, comparing Abraham Lincoln and John F. Kennedy, is probably what set him down the road of accumulating trivia, and having it get stuck in his head. He talks about the coincidences in their lives, and their deaths. That's not to suggest that these facts are anything more than coincidences; they simply are what they are.
