Mike and Mary Michigan and Maine Mars and Murrie Milk and Malt Mars and Murrie 22 hours ago, dgrimm60 said: MARS AND MURRIE Answer: In 1941, Forrest Mars Sr., of the Mars candy company, struck a deal with Bruce Murrie, son of famed Hershey president William Murrie, to develop a hard shelled candy with chocolate at the center. The name thus stood for “Mars & Murrie” the co-creators of the candy. The partnership allowed the candies to be made with Hershey chocolate, as Hershey had control of the rationed chocolate at the time. The story didn’t end sweetly for Murrie, though. When chocolate rationing ended after the war, Mars bought out Murrie's interest in the product and went on to become one of Hershey’s biggest competitors.

Clippers Aglets Tippers Fibbers Going to go with Tippers?? Answer: Those small plastic tips at the end of your shoelaces are called aglets. An aglet is a small tip often made of plastic or metal, used on each end of a shoelace, a chord or a drawstring. Aglets are believed to have been around since the time of the ancient Romans. The first aglets were made of metal, glass, or stone and many were highly ornamental. Today, most aglets on shoelaces are hard plastic. Although no one knows for sure who invented them, many sources credit it being popularized by an English inventor named Harvey Kennedy who is said to have earned $2.5 million off the modern shoelace.

Answer: As you probably know, our sun is a star. It’s our closest, most familiar star, but yet it’s still just a star. There are billions of stars that are scattered across the universe. Among them, the sun is classified as a yellow dwarf star because of the color it emits and its small size compared to most stars. Stars in the classification have a surface temperature between 5,300 and 6,000 K, and fuse hydrogen into helium to generate their light. The sun is relatively young at 4.6 billion years old and researchers estimate that it has another 5 billion years before it dies.

She was introduced in 1914 and can be seen holding an umbrella and a pouring salt container, referring to the company's slogan "When it rains, it pours" (referring to how Morton Salt stays free-flowing even in rainy weather after they began adding magnesium carbonate as an absorbing agent to their table salt in 1911 so it poured freely). The Morton Salt Girl, also known as the Umbrella Girl has become one of the longest-running and most recognizable brand mascots in U.S. history.

It's illegal to wear one with the intention of making people laugh. We’re not kidding! According to lawyers.com, there’s an archaic law in Alabama that makes it a crime “to wear a fake mustache that causes laughter in church.” Alabama is not the only state with dumb laws on their books. It's illegal in Rehoboth, Delaware to whisper in church. You are not supposed to eat peanuts while attending religious services in Boston. And, supposedly, it's against the law to kill a housefly within 160 feet of a church in Ohio unless you have a license.

Chevrolet Ford Dodge Chrysler Ford On 7/1/2018 at 5:12 PM, dgrimm60 said: FORD Answer: The explosive Ford Pinto will go down in history as one of the biggest car flops of all time. The Pinto, produced between 1971–80, was plagued by safety concerns, particularly the revelation that the Pinto’s gas tank was capable of exploding during a rear impact scared buyers away. The problem defined the Pinto, which became the butt of countless jokes. After several lawsuits, Ford initiated a nationwide recall to fix the problem but the damage was already done. Ford stopped production of the Pinto in 1980. Quote phkrause When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; But when a wicked man rules, the people groan. Proverbs 29;2
