Wise World of Wellen presented by Salem Eye Clinic

1. A football player named Bobby Singh won a Super Bowl with the St. Louis Rams in 2000 . . . an XFL championship with the L.A. Xtreme in 2001 . . . and a CFL championship in 2006 with the B.C. Lions. No other player ever won all three.

2. Your brain represents 2% of your body weight . . . and uses up to 20% of your body’s energy. That’s more than any other organ.

3. Johnson & Johnson was founded by THREE guys named Johnson, not two like the name implies. They were all brothers: Robert, James, and Edward Johnson.

4. Coca-Cola got into the wine business in 1977, but wound up selling everything in 1983 when they discovered soda was much more profitable.

5. The guy who invented the “upside-down” ketchup bottles with the opening at the bottom instead of the top sold his company to Heinz in 1995 for $13 million.
