Hunters used to bring home squirrels for dinner when they couldn't catch anything better, and in fact, the meat is said to be quite good -- sweet and nutty, like a cross between rabbit and (what else?) chicken. It's still appreciated in West Virginia, which hosts an annual Squirrel Fest, and where frying is a preferred method of preparation.

You probably think you know Pepsi. It's bubbly, it's cola-colored...but what if I told you that this classic soda is getting a big makeover? That's right, Pepsi is going orange for a limited time.

You might be wondering why the heck Pepsi is choosing to go orange specifically. Pepsi is teaming up with Cleveland Browns defensive end Myles Garrett and Sunday Night Football to create "Believeland" Pepsi in a bright orange hue. The drink was made in honor of the first time Cleveland will be featured on Sunday Night Football in 11 years.

If you want to get your hands on this special soda, you'll have to live in, or visit, Cleveland. Pepsi only made 1,100 bottles of the stuff (100 for each year Cleveland has waited) and they're only being given out at the free tailgate party at Lindey’s Lake House Flats in Cleveland on September 22.

Assuming this car has a black interior, I passed on a twin to this one in late 1971. Belonged to one of my best friends, and he was wanting to buy a 72 Cutlass convertible. They offered him $1000 for the Z/28. All original except for the Hurst shifter I helped him install. I even had the original Munchie shifter (that was my "pay" for installing the Hurst shifter).

So, why did I pass? 2nd gear made a little noise. At 18, I had never been inside a transmission, and was afraid to tackle the job.

Fast forward to 1997. After my first shoulder surgery, I am out in the garage rebuilding a Muncie one handed, with the other arm in a sling. Started thinking about how stupid I was to pass on the red Z/28.

The car? Another friend bought it. He pulled out of a McDonalds a bit too fast, got sideways and the car was T boned so badly the dash was an inverted "V". The engine ended up in another friends 57 Chevy bracket racer. About 15 years ago, someone on this site who shall remain Jonesy was looking for an original 67 Z/28 oil pan. I called up the bracket racer, and he still had it in his attic. Sold it to Jonesy.

I know most of you older guys have similar stories.

Not much on presentation in WV I see. They could have removed the head at least or put a cherry tomato in it...........lol

This was in the small town I live near today. Luckily I was stopped and had my phone close!

When Jonas Salk created the polio vaccine, he could have patented it and made an estimated $7 billion, according to Forbes. Instead, he chose not to do that. On April 12, 1955, when CBS’s Edward R. Morrow asked the scientist who owned the rights to the vaccine, Salk replied, “Well, the people, I would say. There is no patent. Could you patent the sun?”

When children write a letter to Santa Claus around Christmas, most of the mailed messages end up in Canada (you can send them to Santa Claus, North Pole, Canada HOH OHO). That’s where Canada Post volunteers reply to the millions of letters that come in each year in more than 30 different languages, including Braille.

Spending time in the hospital is never fun, especially for children. That’s why teams of window washers nationwide have been known to attempt to cheer them up by dressing as superheroes. “We donned the Spider-Man costumes and we rappelled down the side of the buildings,” Harold Connolly, president of Highrise Window Cleaning, told USA Today in 2013. “We knocked on the glass, waved hello—there were a lot of big smiles.”

Still not in the best mood of all time? Try smiling. One 2009 study presented at the British Psychological Society’s annual conference found that even if a smile is forced, the brain still responds to the expression by releasing chemicals that improve your mood.

See someone without a smile . . . . give em one of yours!

In March 2019, the Roosevelt Hotel in New Orleans decided to celebrate its 125th anniversary by offering a free seven-night stay in its presidential suite, along with complimentary private dinners and spa treatments worth a whopping $15,000. But this wasn’t a standard giveaway. The prize was only available to the person who returned the “most outrageous” item ever stolen from the hotel.
