Useless secret of the day

I can name all the wives of Henry VIII, in order, and tell you their fates.

Three Catherines, two Annes, and a Jane.

Catherine of Aragon, Anne Boleyn, Jane Seymour, Anne of Cleves, Kathryn Howard, Katherine Parr.

Divorced, beheaded, died. Divorced, beheaded, lived.

Tah-dah!

The embarrassing part of this secret: My refresher course on the subject comes from watching The Tudors. Which I think is awesome.

(I mean, horrible, of course, but awesome.)
