Results: Strange But True

Singer Dolly Parton is without a doubt a talented woman, but Who knew she was this talented? Strangely enough, she wrote both I Will Always Love You AND Jolene on the same day. According to Parton, "That was a good writing day." I would think most people would agree with her...

A suspected car thief has been arrested - thanks to a DNA sample taken from blood found inside a mosquito. Police inspecting a dumped stolen car in Lapua, Finland, last June noticed a full-looking mosquito. It was sent to a lab for testing, and the DNA was found to match the sample of a man in the police register. The suspect has insisted he did not steal the car, claiming he hitchhiked and was given a lift by a male driver. Still, it was enough evidence to convict the thief. Do you think this was enough to convict someone for a crime?

Cats were valued members of ship crews in the mid-20th century. They were skilled rodent catchers, and their presence helped control the population of rats and mice on ships. These pests were notorious for damaging supplies and spreading diseases, so having cats aboard was essential to the safety of the crew. To acknowledge the cats' contribution and ensure their safety during international travels, they were given passports. These passports were not legally recognized, but they were a unique and lighthearted tradition. They typically consisted of a small booklet with pages that included the cat's name, description, and an area for their paw print. Did you know this?

What are the chances? Recently, two flight passengers were shocked to meet each other when they saw they looked the same — and even had the same names. The two men, both named Mark Garland, found themselves in a puzzling scenario when they encountered each other on a flight to Bangkok, Thailand. The unlikely situation unfolded at Heathrow Terminal 2 as 58-year-old Mark Garland was checking into his flight. To his surprise, airport staff informed him that he had already checked in. After a 40-minute confusion, it was revealed there were two Mark Garlands booked on the same flight and the check-in employee did not cross-reference the booking number and checked in his lookalike instead. That's when the similarities really hit home, as the pair realized they shared more than a name. The Marks met in departures, noticing an incredible resemblance with identical shaved heads. As fate would have it, they were also seated next to each other on the plane. The younger Mark, a bus driver from Wiltshire, and the older Mark, a 62-year-old builder from Bristol, spent the flight chatting away, discovering they shared not only the same name but also friends, hobbies, and a love for Thailand. Remarkably, they live just 15 miles apart and even realized that the builder Mark occasionally rides the bus driven by the younger Mark. Both men are single fathers with four children each. Is this bizarre or what?
