Facts I’ve learned on the street today.

Hence, the next logical nomenclature: Ford should be the father of the Tailgate Party.
A dog’s smell is more than 100,000 times stronger than that of a human’s. Dogs’ sense of hearing is more than ten times more acute than a human’s.
With that said….. It is best not to yell at your dog. Or to fart at him.
Bananas contain a natural chemical which can make a person happy.
This makes good sense to me. Now I can guess where the phrase “Going Bananas” really came from.
There were 42 known assassination attempts on Hitler.
This does not surprise me. At all.

This fact may very well…… stop me from swimming in public pools.
A pizza delivery will arrive more quickly than an ambulance 40% of the time.
So… play your odds. If you are having a heart attack, call BOTH….. 911 and Dominoes.

I totally believe this. Someone whispered it to me today.
Seven percent of Americans think Elvis is still alive.
This does not surprise me either. Truth be told…. I think I have met all 7%.

If you mouth the word “colorful” to someone, it looks like you are saying “I love you”.
So as I close this tonight… I say to all of you…. “colorful”
