DON’T PANIC!

Canada Goose 

A man goes to his doctor because he’s been feeling very ill for days. The doctor gives him several sets of pills.

The doctor instructs; “Take the green pill with two big glasses of water when you get up. An hour later, take the white pill with another glass of water. Take the blue pill with a big glass of water after lunch. Mid afternoon, take the orange pill with plenty of water, and repeat that at dinner. Then, just before going to bed, take the red pill with several big glasses of water.”

The man is alarmed at huge volume of medicine he has been given to take, and nervously asks, “What’s the diagnosis? What’s wrong with me?”

The doctor says, “You’re dehydrated.”

Interesting Fact: The “giant” Canada Goose, Branta canadensis maxima, bred from central Manitoba to Kentucky but was nearly driven extinct in the early 1900s. Programs to reestablish the subspecies to its original range were in many places so successful that the geese have become a nuisance in many urban and suburban areas.  ( https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Canada_Goose/lifehistory )

Day 154 / 365

Nobody ever reads the rules for Monopoly except when an argument breaks out.  🙂

Interesting Fact: Charles Darrow was from Philadelphia, and he first developed the Monopoly game in 1933.  The first pieces were made from materials from Darrow’s home.  A piece of oilcloth covered the board, the cards were handwritten, and the houses and hotels were made from wooden scraps.  The shiny pieces were inspired by Darrow’s nieces.  The first Monopoly die-cast tokens were metal charms from the girls’ charm bracelets.
