The jokes and interesting facts threads were fun so lets continue in that vein

Here are a couple to start the ball rolling

I can be long, or I can be short. I can be grown, and I can be bought. I can be painted, or left bare. I can be round, or even square. What am I?

Something very extraordinary happened on the 6th of May, 1978 at thirty-four minutes past twelve a.m. What was it?

I'm a five-letter word that has no end, Commit a sin? One through three can amend, One, four and five are something alive, Two and three occur near to thee. What am I?
