It is fun to watch. I love how all the couples are dressed like grown ups.

Yup. We've talked about this before. As Mark Twain said, "Clothes make the man. Naked people have little or no influence on society."
Extending that thought - if you're dressed like a slob, people will treat you like a slob. Look at any photos regarding air or train travel from the 1950s and even up to the 1970s. It was different. Now they have to tell you not to take your shoes off and clip your toenails on an airplane.

(Maybe obvious, but it wasn't to me. LOL)
Every place on earth (assuming cloudless days and line of site (no mountains, etc.)) get the same hours of sunlight over the course of the year.

Interesting, and not necessarily obvious.

I thought so, too. I’ve always wondered about the “filmed live before a studio audience” sitcoms about how much the cameras and crew interfere with the visibility. Anybody here ever sit in one of those audiences?

Blowing smoke up your ass was an actual medical procedure in 18th-century England. Before doctors invented a long tube to keep their faces away, they used a standard smoking pipe to perform the procedure.
