Wise World of Wellen presented by Salem Eye Clinic
- Neil Armstrong and the crew from Apollo 11 all had to fill out customs forms when they landed back on Earth.
- Yosemite National Park has struggled to design garbage cans, because they have to be easy enough for humans to open, but complex enough so bears can’t, and they’ve found there’s a, quote, “considerable overlap” between the intelligence of the smartest bears and the dumbest tourists.
- Comet tails always point away from the sun, because they’re created by solar winds.
- The frozen margarita machine was invented by a guy named Mariano Martinez in Dallas in 1971. He modified a soft serve ice cream machine to sell drinks at his Mexican restaurant.
- Ducks quack in different accents depending on where they’re from.
Bonus fact: When you visit the Salem Eye Clinic, you’re supporting a small locally owned business, that’s been a part of the community since 1979!
