Hump day randomness..... 1. The guy who invented the board game Operation sold the rights to a toy company for just $500 back in 1964. Now hes 77 and cant afford $25,000 for a REAL operation . . . so his friends are raising money through crowdfunding. 2. When people first came up with the concept of brunch in the late 1800s, they called it blunch. That didnt quite have a great ring to it, so eventually people preferred to call it brunch. 3. You could fit 1,000 Earths into Jupiter. 4. Fredric Baur is the inventor of Pringles, and before he died in 2008, his final request was to be cremated and buried in a Pringles can. His children fulfilled his request. 5. Madison only became a popular name for girls after Splash came out in 1984, when Daryl Hannahs character picks the name off a Madison Avenue street sign. Tom Hanks even says, quote, But Madison isnt a name.
