Chuck Norris FotD:
“Chuck Norris was once on Celebrity Wheel of Fortune and was the first to spin. The next 29 minutes of the show consisted of everyone standing around awkwardly, waiting for the wheel to stop.”
“The original theme song to the Transformers was actually ‘Chuck Norris–more than meets the eye, Chuck Norris–robot in disguise,’ and starred Chuck Norris as a Texas Ranger who defended the earth from drug-dealing Decepticons and could turn into a pick-up. This was far too much awesome for a single show, however, so it was divided.”

Chuck Norris Fact of the Day
“Chuck Norris’ alarm clock plays Billy Joel’s ‘We Didn’t Start the Fire’ every morning at 7 am. Its not because he likes the song. It infuriates him, because Chuck Norris does indeed know that they started that fire, and they will pay.”
