The goldfish actually does have a memory span longer than 3 seconds; it’s just a myth. Goldfish can, however, grow up to 12 inches long if kept in a large area of water.

Canadian Myths
The American Flag on the 2 or 10 dollar bill
Many people seem to think that either the two dollar or ten dollar bills made in the 1989 “Bird” Series has the American Flag in it.
The two dollar bill is simply the Canadian flag, and is a false alarm. But, if you have a copy of the ten dollar bill and look very closely at the flag over the Parlimant Buildings you will see a patch in the upper left hand side, and this, combined with the pattern on the rest of the flag, looks like the American flag.
The flag is, in fact, the Canadian Ensign, the patch in the upper left is the Union Jack, and the stripe effect is caused by shading and scaling. If you look carefully, you can see a crest in the bottom right of the flag.
