Coke Zero Coke II Coke Jr. Coca-Cola Classic Coke II 2 hours ago, dgrimm60 said: COKE II Answer: In 1985, Coca-Cola retooled their formula and introduced a newer, sweeter beverage called "New Coke." Less than three months after New Coke's unveiling, the company gave in to protests and returned to the original formula under the name Coca-Cola Classic. The new product continued to be marketed until 1992 when it was renamed Coke II. The new name didn't help, and Coke II was soon killed off for good in July 2002. The story of New Coke remains a cautionary tale in business against tampering with a well-established and successful brand.

Georgia Jimmy Grits Mr. Peanut Grits 2 hours ago, dgrimm60 said: GRITS Answer: A southern gentleman to the core, Jimmy Carter loved his grits. After Carter and his family moved into the White House in 1977, his daughter Amy Carter’s teacher gave the 9-year-old a Border Collie mix. The dog, who was born on the same day Jimmy Carter won the presidential election, was named Grits in honor of the Carter family’s Southern roots. Grits’ arrival at the White House was recorded in the presidential diary on June 8, 1977. Some sources report that Grits had a few behavior problems, including soiling the White House carpet — not to mention that Grits didn’t get along with the Carters’ cat, Misty Malarky Ying Yang.

Hover Fly Pluto Platter Whirlo Sky Bomber Pluto Platter 1 hour ago, dgrimm60 said: PLUTO PLATTER Answer: On this day in 1957, the Wham-O toy company rolled out the first batch of their aerodynamic plastic discs—now known as Frisbees. The story of the Frisbee began in Bridgeport, Connecticut, where William Frisbie opened the Frisbie Pie Company in 1871. Students from nearby universities would throw the empty pie tins to each other, yelling “Frisbie!” as they let go. In 1955, Walter Morrison invented a plastic version of the disc and sold it to the toy company Wham-O as the “Pluto Platter”–an attempt to capitalize on the nation’s flying saucer hysteria. A year after the toy’s release, Wham-O changed its name to the Frisbee, a reference to the historic pie company.

Paul Revere The Lone Ranger Roy Rogers Alexander the Great Alexander the Great 9 hours ago, dgrimm60 said: ALEXANDER THE GREAT Answer: Bucephalus was Alexander the Great’s horse and is considered by some to be the most famous horse in history. Bucephalus and Alexander were inseparable; only Alexander could ride him, and indeed he did, for nearly two decades and through numerous battles to create his mighty empire. At one point, the steed was stolen and Alexander is said to have threatened the destruction of an entire country unless he was returned — which, of course, he promptly was. When Bucephalus died, Alexander named a city after the horse: Bucephala. Quote phkrause When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; But when a wicked man rules, the people groan.

Cullinan The Golden Jubilee Excelsior Hope Diamond Cullinan 17 minutes ago, dgrimm60 said: CULLINAN Answer: The Cullinan Diamond was discovered on this day in 1905 at the Premier Mine in Pretoria, South Africa. Weighing a staggering 3,106 carats, it was the largest rough diamond ever found. It was named after Thomas Cullinan, the mine's chairman. The Cullinan was later cut into nine large stones and about 100 smaller ones. The largest stone is called the “Star of Africa I,” or “Cullinan I,” and at 530 carats, it is the largest-cut fine-quality colorless diamond in the world. The second largest stone, the “Star of Africa II” or “Cullinan II,” is 317 carats. Both of these stones, as well as the “Cullinan III,” are on display in the Tower of London.
