    This game is pretty simple, all you have to do, is dip into your General Knowledge Pool & present us with a fact, that you think would amaze everyone else on EC (!)(!)(!)

    I will start us off, have you heard of that famous song "Smile" ?

    These are some of the lyrics!

    Smile though your heart is aching
    Smile even though it's breaking
    When there are clouds in the sky, you'll get by
    If you smile through your fear and sorrow
    Smile and maybe tomorrow
    You'll see the sun come shining through for you

    Well did you know that this song was written by no other that the famous Comedian
    Charlie Chaplin, not surprising really when you think his job was to make people smile :badgrin:

    Your Turn to amaze us (!)(!)(!)

    The Second tallest mountain in the U.S. is Mammoth Mountain in Mammoth, California. I took a gondola to that mountain and it was amazing but scary lol.

    Kresukun, the monkeys at the zoo are average. You won't have to worry. That much.

    Did you know that Reading Read as Read as oppose to Reading Read as Read is a very common mistake because Read can also be said as Read?
