    Giant versions of popular snacks, or just normal-sized snacks in giant packages?

    Einstein had a sense of humor. In my opinion he was likely joking when he said he wanted to be a plumber.

    Perhaps, every now and then, he wanted to be normal? Celebrity can be wearing sometimes.

    “These cuckoo clocks are so difficult to make. The sound of a rooster is so hard to replicate mechanically. We’ll have to increase the price” “No! Don’t do that! Nobody is going to buy one at a higher price. I may have a better solution.” “What’s that?” “Let’s make it the sound of a cuckoo, it’s just a two-note sound.” “But, people would notice the difference.” “It’s OK. We’ll say that it’s a legal requirement to prevent fraud accusations because the clock is called a ‘cuckoo clock’ and it should sound like one.” “Wow! That’s clever!.. Say… why were we calling them cuckoo clocks?..”

    Einstein said the big bang you were hearing meant your steam radiator was clogged up.

    Coo-coo Clocks (1629) are the predecessor of orchestrions, but came after the earliest versions of barrel organs (16th century) all three of which are based upon mechanized bellows technology that had been in use since the hydraulis of the 3rd century.

    I like how snack companies sell a bag of air with a food prize.

    Whenever I binge on carbs late in the evening, I wake up the next day feeling, “hung-over”.

    Einstein in 1954 had just about reached the limit of what he was going to accomplish in Physics, so why not change careers at that point?

    So basically, Costco finally arrived in China?

    In pretty much every culture, the sound of a rooster is spelled and spoken differently than how Americans say it, as in Cock-a-Doodle-Doo. The above looks to be German.

    Einstein was a plumber of sorts, plumbing the depths of physics.

    That Belgian guy must be a cheap date.

    Decades ago, 60 Minutes had a story about a kid who was diagnosed as being mentally challenged. Parents didn’t accept that diagnosis. They took the kid to different doctors, who agreed with the diagnosis. Finally, they found a doctor who discovered the actual problem: The child’s gut microbiome was causing auto-brewery syndrome! The kid wasn’t mentally challenged. The kid was drunk.

    The air inside potato chip bags is to protect the chips. Without it, there would be many more broken or crushed chips per bag.The air inside potato chips is actually nitrogen. Without oxygen, the chips will stay fresh longer before the bag is opened.Laura Scudder pioneered selling potato chips in bags.

    Plumbing: That’s where the money’s at. And you only have to know 3 things (master plumbers know 3 more).

    To wit:

    1) Hot’s on the left.

    2) Cold’s on the right.

    3) Pschitt don’t run uphill.

    Master class corollaries:

    4) Payday’s Friday.

    5) Scrap copper buys the beer.

    6) The boss is an SOB.
