The Anglo-Zanzibar War was fought between the United Kingdom and Zanzibar on 27 August 1896. The conflict lasted 38 minutes and is the shortest war in history.

I didn't.
But boy, am I glad I do now!
Going to bed tonight will be a totally new experience for me being safe in the knowledge that I know that the greatest duck of all time had a middle name of Fauntleroy.

I once knew a bloke whose name was Donald Duck......How cruel were his parents?  :Shocked:

I have no idea what his middle name was though... :undecided:

When we went trough training we were told to always be careful not to be too quick to arrest for False Name because some people have strange names.
There is indeed (or at least was) a person in Perth called Donald Duck too.
And there was another one whose car rego kept getting called up to see who the owner was (for a laugh) because the owner's details came back (true story this) as Phat Long Kok.  :D

I've mentioned this before but I have a work-mate called John Smith and when a customer wanted to complain about him, he is a debt collector, she wouldn't believe his name... :whistler:

I know that the average 5 year old can use a whole lipstick in 30 seconds - so it comes as no surprise

So, there must be some correlation then between the height of a woman, the size of her lips and the length of the stick?  :confused:
There's probably a formula to it - I wonder what it is?  :undecided:

I don't.
The length of the stick tends to get in the way and would corrupt the formula.
