What do you know today that you didn't know yesterday?
RE: What do you know today that you didn't know yesterday?
Kept seeing memes of Dave Grohl. Wondered who he is. Now I know. Meh, whatever.

He has been seen as a good guy, great family man, one of the rockers that behaves...it was recently revealed that he had a baby with someone other than his wife.  Oops...there goes that good guy image.

In 2005, the security film, Scotchshield placed a glass box filled with $3 million in cash at a bus stop in Vancouver, Canada, and issued a simple challenge: break the glass and keep the money.

People of all ages and backgrounds attempted to shatter the seemingly indestructible glass. From punches and kicks to using tools and even a sledgehammer, but no one managed to break it.

It turns out that Scotchshield wasn’t as confident in their product as you might think - the case only contained $500 in actual cash.https://dailyhive.com/vancouver/3m-three...cash-stunt


Quote:[color=rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.87)]Stacks of money were placed inside the glass case to fill up more than half of the volume with what convincingly looked like $3 million of cash. However, in reality, as it was later shared, only $500 of real money was inside the case, and the remainder was fake money. The real money was placed on top.

So, I guess we’re even about the Notre Dame rabbit situation, since I mentioned that before you did this time. Plus that the glass’ structural integrity seemed to hold out longer than the metal surrounding it.

The average rate of speech in English is about four syllables per second.

The entire Dark Knight Trilogy is 456 minutes long. Batman himself is only on screen for 105 of those minutes. Add in time for Bruce Wayne, and it's at 158.

That’s pretty standard - villains are always more interesting than heroes.

Mike Massimino, former NASA astronaut (two STS missions/25 days in space) and a current professor of mechanical engineering at Columbia University, has a fear of heights and believes that roller coasters are inherently unsafe.

When it comes to writing, I'm a pantser. Stephen King is a prime example of a pantser.

I found out that my second granddaughter has her first job. That's really good news as she is very bashful and timid and this is a good thing. She has been working at a Dunkin Donuts which will force her into talking with people. Apparently one is opening closer to home but her boss doesn't want to lose her. I am glad to hear this news.

I had called my younger daughter to let her know that a new quilt is on the way the way to her.

It also sounds like daughter may be getting her ankle fused...the one she really messed up last year in a car accident. It should reduce the pain she has been experiencing which is a good thing since she is prone to addiction. Overall, news on that front sounds very positive. Grandson is taking up archery too...along with baseball and football. He's a busy kid.
