Feel free to e-mail me answers or post them in the comments:
• This leopard-looking cat eats monkeys and lives as far north as Texas. Chances are, the monkey supply is pretty limited there. Good thing it also eats snakes, rodents and such.
• This herb is eaten both as a seed and as leaves. Its name stems from the fact it smells like bugs. Mmmm.
• A centuries-old story about this man, who earned a "deserved death," may stem from a real person who tricked his jailor into shaving his face with arsenic. In his defense, that did take the hair off.
• This U.S. ship, torpedoed by an ally, was the only one ever attacked during peacetime without a subsequent Congressional investigation. Whether the strike was intentional or not is still debated today.
• Just this year, Western Union stopped offering telegraphs. But what major company still has "telegraph" as part of its name?
