“Holy crap, I have ESP now!” Ford shouted in celebration.
“You’re getting six cents,” his lawyer replied, “Not a sixth sense.”
Which model Ford carried him to his final resting place?
It’s a trick question: a Packard.
I read somewhere (not Cecil? maybe) that Ford once saw sugar crystals under a microscope, and never ate sugar after that because he was convinced the crystals would cut up his insides.
Here’s a mention of that Ford fact
The word goodbye is just 16th century leetspeak turned into a word. It was originally a contraction of God be with ye .

One of the largest, if not the largest, gem-quality opal is coming up for auction. A guy in Palmer, Alaska has had it in his closet for many years. His father acquired it in the 50s from an Australian opal dealer. It’s in the neighborhood of over 11,000 karats and they’re expecting it to bring upwards of $250K or more.
It sold only for $144k. White opal with touches of fire opal color but not enough to rate the prices of a fire opal.
Still a nice influx of cash for the owner.

Well, too much sugar might cause your mouth to start hurting, as it did mine when I went wild on a visit to Sweden. So much good candy for cheap, put it into little baggies at the corner store. My mouth was sore as if the abrasiveness of sugar crystals had physically done damage. This is my theory anyway. After it dissolves, of course it shouldn’t hurt you (outside of the short term stress on your metabolism and long term health effects of course).
Today I learned that out on the fringe zone where conspiracy theory meets outright paranoid schizophrenia is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gang_stalking: the belief that a large number of coordinated people are following/ surveilling/ defaming/ gaslighting you. And not just you but other Targeted Individuals (T.I.'s) as well.

I leant this at the Pooseum - a museum in Richmond, Tasmania that has everything you ever wanted you know about … you know.

The beat of Boppin’ the Blues by Carl Perkins exactly matches the beat of the turn-signals and blinkers of my Chevy Bolt.
A “Tank Diver” is the guy or gal who goes into airliner fuel tanks to inspect and repair them. The link to a YouTube video is worth a look.
