Lincoln was laughing when he was shot

Because he contracted malaria,  Andrew Johnson showed up to his vice
presidential innauguration drunk. He downed some medicinal whiskey and slurred through his speech. 

It was on Feb. 12, 2002 when the oldest vomit was found. And not a moment too soon. It came from an Ichthysaur. Sure it did.
 
Julius Ceasar was able to stab one of his attackers on that dreaded Ides of March. But it really didn't matter, did it?

The thunder is not what causes the milk to turn sour. It's more likely to be the weather that follows the storm.

Swans cannot sing before dying because, well, they are mute. Some
hiss, however.

Apples in the Garden of Eden? Not likely because it would have been too warm.

Abraham Lincoln was laughing when he was shot.

There are so many trivia posted here that are new to my eyes. Thank you for informing us. This information about Abraham Lincoln and Julius Caesar are so funny. If all these are true, I can't just imagine how would I react if I was in their situations. By the way, I will be waiting for more trivia to be posted here. I had a fun time reading all of these!

I cannot identify if all of these are jokes, but I did not get the humor out of it. Of course, I tried to understand everything that you wrote but perhaps, some of these were too deep for me. How I wish I felt something after reading each statement, but I was not even affected by it. Well, it happens since all of us have different kinds of humor. That is also something that we should understand. But I am sure, those people who have the same wavelength as you laughed at your jokes! I am pretty sure that they got the humor on that something that you want to feed them!
