My fun facts for today include the fact that The Russian Tea Room in NYC has four floors that hold hidden treasures like a giant glass bear that has fish swimming inside it. I know this fun fact because my friends and fellow group therapists Jen and Patty saw that after I left the restaurant early last night because I was tuckered out after a too-full day with too-little sleep.
Here’s another fun fact: the incredibly fun and funny Mel Brooks, who is listed as a “noted guest” in the Wikipedia page about the Russian Tea Room, has a new TV show, “History of the World Part II,”which Nick Kroll talked about on the Stephen Colbert show attended yesterday by Jen, Patty, and me.
Fun fact: Stephen Colbert answers questions from the audience before every show taping, which yesterday included a reveal of the many pencils he throws around as a homage to his admired talk show predecessors David Letterman and Johnny Carson.
You’re bound to discover other fun facts if you click on the links I’ve embedded on this post so far. (Fun fact: when I type “fun facts” it often comes out as “fun cats.”)
Do you see fun facts in the images I captured yesterday?

Here’s the first thing I find when I search for “fun facts” on YouTube:
Thanks to all who help me share fun facts in this daily blog, including YOU!
Thank you for sharing your fun from New York City, Ann!
You’re welcome, my fun friend!
My name means bee. While I think bees are great in general, I don’t like being around them.
It’s great being around you, Debbie.
My mother named me after Christopher Robin from the Winnie-The-Pooh books because she thought it was an unusual name. The fun fact is a lot of other mothers of my generation had the same idea.
That is a fun fact, my fun and unique friend.
Fun fact – I love Stephen Colbert and the Late Show! And one fun fact about my name is when I was in 8th grade, there were 5 Susans in my math class of about 28 students. I asked my mother why she named me Susan and she said she thought it was a unique name. Guess everyone else did too that year.
I love your fun facts and your comments!
I love fun facts and love Colbert . fun fact about my name – my first and middle names were reversed by my parents when I was 2.
Thank you for another lovable and fun comment, beth.
I have been enjoying your trip to New York City even though I haven’t had much time to post.
Did you once meet Irvin Yalom at one of those conferences?
I did! Thank you for your memory.
