The idea of the sandwich came from the Earl of Sandwich in 1762, when he was too busy gambling to stop and eat. So, he asked for his roastbeef to be put between two slices of bread. He did this so his fingers wouldn't get greasy while playing cards.

When the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan began, only less than $5 million was given to the CIA to covertly help the Afgans to resist Soviet occupation.
Whereas Reagan couldn't even get Congress to agree on giving $5 million to combat drug lords in Columbia (I think), US Representative Charlie Wilson rose the budget for the Afgans agaisnt the Soviets from $5 million to $500 million.
In the movie "The Grey" Liam Neeson wasn't the original star of the movie. They originally cast Bradley Cooper, best known for his role in "The Hangover" movies as the character Phil, to play the main role.
