A farmer and a city slicker were outside watching the geese fly over. The farmer says, "See that v

formation that they fly in? Do you know why one side is always longer than the other?" The city

slicker thinks for a bit and says, "No, why?" The farmer looks at him and says,

"Because there's more geese on that side."

Pickling CrockQ: While cleaning out my family barn

in Kansas, I found an old crock that I am certain was used in my family for pick-ling. It has a large "10" on the side and is identified as being made by the Western Pottery company. Can you provide me with any other information I might find interesting? -- Steve, Kansas City, Kan.

A: You are correct in that your crock was probably used for pickling, since the "10" indicates it is a 10-gallon vessel. The Western Pottery Manufacturing Compa-ny was located in Denver and produced stoneware crocks in various sizes. One

• It was pioneering British director of suspense films Alfred Hitchcock who made the following sage observa-tion: “The length of a film should be directly related to

the endurance of the human bladder.”

• If you’re an arachnophobe, you probably don’t want to know that a tarantula can live for up to two years without eating a single thing.

• If you’re like the average Ameri-can man with a job, you spend 8 minutes per day cooking. If you’re like the average American woman who works, you spend 50 minutes a day preparing meals.

• There are four times more as-trologers than astronomers in the

United States.

• You may not think it significant that in 1921, Earle Dickson’s wife had a tendency to injure herself while working in the kitchen. He kept bandaging her wounds with gauze and adhesive tape, but the bandages al-ways seemed to be slipping off. Finally, in exasperation, he put a small piece of gauze in the center of a piece of ad-hesive tape, which worked beautifully. None of this would have made any dif-ference to us today, except that Dickson was an employee of Johnson & Johnson. He took some sam-ples of his invention into work, where the owner, James Johnson, loved the idea. The Band-Aid went into production shortly thereafter.
