Just when you think things couldn’t get any weirder…

• Paris has its own miniature version of the Statue of Liberty, facing the larger statue in New York as a symbol of friendship between the two countries.

• Earth is estimated to be 4.543 billion years old, but this is a theory based on current facts and hypotheses. A new theory could disprove this estimate.

• August 9 begins a full week of honoring Elvis (yes, it’s a holiday).

• Some Olympic sports have age limits, but many children have won medals, including Nadia Comăneci, who won nine medals and became the first Olympic gymnast to score a perfect 10 at age 14.

• State Fair food is weird. Texas has fried beer and Kansas has pickle pop.
