12501 Antônio Vilas-Boas

A not-so fun fact for you:

In 1957 Antônio Vilas-Boas, a Brazillian farmer came forward with claims he had been abducted by humanoid aliens. His report was that a group of humanoid barking aliens covered him with gel, and a naked attractive female came in and fornicated with him.

His report didn't say if he enjoyed it though. More details on Wikipedia.

12445 and another session on bass

Random fact:

Due to the overwhelming crowds and limited availability of public restrooms, people celebrating the New Year in Times Square occasionally wear adult diapers.
