The city of Pittsburgh (more appropriately Allegheny County) has a exorbitant number of bridges... some say the most of any city in the world. The number of bridges over 20 feet in length is 944 (not including railway bridges), and the number of bridges over 8 feet in length is over 2000!!! WOW! These 'facts' were found/confirmed by the internet.

sub-Fact: The Pizza Pizza jingle was so pervasive when it first came out that border agents would ask truckers to recite it to hurry them through confirming citizenship.

FACT: Both Allen Ginsberg and William S. Burroughs were interviewed by Kinsey or likely one of his associates making up part of the raw aggregate data that became the Kinsey Report.

FACT: Kenny Loggins is an avid ambassador of hydrocolon therapy (enemas) and met his wife a practicioner that way. First she opened his colon then she opened his heart. (It's in his autobiography)

Oranges eaten in Canada are dyed orange.

They are picked green for the purpose of transport to Canada, so that they won't spoil along the way. Unlike some fruits (eg. tomatoes) oranges do not continue to change colour after they're picked, so they dye them with food colouring for sale in Canada.

FACT.

FACT.

Lost my shape-Trying to act casual!

Can't stop-I might end up in the hospital

I'm changing my shape-I feel like an accident

They're back!-To explain their experience

Isn't it weird/Looks too obscure to me

Wasting away/And that was their policy

I'm ready to leave-I push the fact in front of me

Facts lost-Facts are never what they seem to be

Nothing there!-No information left of any kind

Lifting my head-Looking for danger signs

There was a line/There was a formula

Sharp as a knife/Facts cut a hole in us

There was a line/There was a forula

Sharp as a knife/Facts cut a hole in us

I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...

I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...

I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...

The feeling returns/Whenever we close out eyes

Lifting my head/looking around inside

The island of doubt-It's like the taste of medicine

Working by hindsight-Got the message from the oxygen

Making a list-Find the cost of opportunity

Doing it right-Facts are useless in emergencies

The feeling returns/Whenever we close out eyes

Lifting my head/Looking around inside.

Facts are simple and facts are straight

Facts are lazy and facts are late

Facts all come with points of view

Facts don't do what I want them to

Facts just twist the truth around

Facts are living turned inside out

Facts are getting the best of them

Facts are nothing on the face of things

Facts don't stain the furniture

Facts go out and slam the door

Facts are written all over your face

Facts continue to change their shape

I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...

I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...

I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...

Crosseyed and Painless, Talking Heads
