“Look what I can do!”

As Marty is demonstrating, cats have 20 more vertebrae than humans do, making them very flexible.

Reynard tells me that refried beans are not actually refried. “Refritos” in Spanish means “well-fried”, but gringos don’t much like being corrected.

Did you known that for about six months in 1981-1982, the PGA Tour changed its name to the TPA Tour (Tournament Players Association Tour) because of a marketing/trademark dispute? Good job, fellas. #golf #pga #pgatour #sports #tpa

Today I learned that the head strap on this pack sack (backpack) is called a tumpline or mecapal, and helps use the spine/back with carrying the load.

Found in a reprint of Camp and Trail Methods by Elmer Harry Kreps. It came home with me.
