Hey look, that's the first thing that successfully landed on the moon up thar, folks. I reckon it was called Luna 2, I don't know. them russkies did it. Them thar Indians did something on the moon this week, too. Oh, Krishna, Krishna, what if wikipedia is full of lies?
OH man, my childhood pal "Malick" (code name) had a dad at NASA. He warranted that all the desks have sat empty for eons and that the whole Apollo 11 thing was a ruse.
OBAMA: arrange another moon landing, OK?
I will report on what I do know from time to time, you can be assured of that. I will include topic headers.
For instance:
GRAMMAR
often has a silent T
it's= it is
its=possessive
BARTENDING
***a whiskey sour comes with a cherry
n.b. recently discovered this is unsupported by my American Bartender's Guide or whatnot c. 1940 (1/3 of cocktails include a raw egg, mysteriously)
STUFF THAT'S SCARY
the plastic trash vortex in the Pacific Ocean
Princeton owns your AP scores
AMERICA
is not Christian
was discovered by Vikings
MUSIC
Schoenberg
Debussy
Shostakovich etc.
TRAINS
I'm always wondering what CSX stands for, watching endless metal scoot languidly (sometimes backwards) through Orlando's major intersections.
"The name came about during merger talks between Chessie System, Inc. and Seaboard System Railroad, Inc., commonly called Chessie and Seaboard. The company chairmen said it was important for the new name to include neither of those names due to its being a partnership. Employees were asked for suggestions, most of which consisted of combinations of the initials. At the same time a temporary shorthand name was needed for discussions with the Interstate Commerce Commission. CSC was chosen but belonged to a trucking company in Virginia. CSM (for Chessie-Seaboard Merger) was also taken. The lawyers decided to use CSX, and the name stuck. In the public announcement, it was said that "CSX is singularly appropriate. C can stand for Chessie, S for Seaboard, and X, the multiplication symbol, means that together we are so much more."
