The last execution by guillotine was Sept 10, 1977. The Atari 2600 video game was introduced on Sept 11, 1977. The age of the guillotine and the age of video games is only separated by 24 hours.

A Frenchman's first reaction to trying Coca-Cola in 1950.

Coca-cola? Merde alors.

They should use that photo in their advertising. They could be the next Anheuser Busch.

This is a language I don't understand. I'll take your word that it's "mildly interesting."

I know a woman with Euler’s equation tattooed on her arm.

Only 4 people have served in the House of Representatives, the Senate, Vice President, and President:

1. John Tyler
2. Andrew Johnson
3. Lyndon Baines Johnson
4. Richard Nixon

[jon-nyc]

I forgot Nixon was a senator for a short time.

[Copper]

Kamala will probably end up with 3 of the 4.
