  1. The cake in the movie “Sixteen Candles” is made of cardboard.
  2. New York City was the capital of the U.S. during the first two years George Washington was president, and Philadelphia was the capital for the next six.  The capital wasn’t officially D.C. until three years after he was out of office.
