Good Stuff

 

Things are more like they are now than they have ever been before.

Progress might have been all right once, but it has gone on too long.

Never become irritable waiting for things to get better. If you’ll be patient, you’ll find that you can wait much faster.

If you have always done it that way, it is probably wrong.

Things will get better, despite our efforts to improve them.

Fun Facts: Food & Drinks Part 6

Coca-Cola has made over 3,500 different kinds of beverages. If you drank one per day it would take you over nine years to try them all.

The term “sandwich” was named after  John Montagu, fourth Earl of Sandwich, a town in England. He would ask his servants to bring him slices of meat between two slices of bread while he was gambling at a table so he wouldn’t have to leave the game.

In the Philippines, there’s a banana ketchup. During World War II there was actually a shortage of tomatoes, so they used bananas as a replacement in ketchup.

The  Assistant Editor:   Who fell at your place today, LL ?   

The Worried Cat:    It’s personal, but  two strong men were nearby and rescued the fallen person. He was a fool for wearing flip-flops at 78 years old.  Fortunately, only his pride was hurt.

This video shows one way to help a fallen person up, if the person is uninjured.

Wear sensible shoes, keep your phone on your person, and know who to call.   There are many videos, but the most important thing is to have a plan, and keep some friends on speed-dial. 

Get your drama from the media.

Socialism works as well as flip-flops.
