24. For some reason I always liked the name "Box of Frogs," but
there's a part of me that would root, in a contest for best band name, for a local band I saw in California, called "Carbon-based Douchebags."

30. Lake Titicaca and the Aquatic Scrotums.
Yes, the lake really exists in Peru. Yes, there is a frog there that has a scientific name that translates to "aquatic scrotum."
