The Caesar Salad was first created in Tijuana, Mexico on 4th of July, 1924. Caesar Cardini ran out of ingredients for other dressings on busy holiday weekend (prohibition era so TJ was popular vacation destination), so he made a fancy tableside production of what he had available (original had no anchovies).

Here’s one more relevant to this forum:
The Beach Boys first hit was “Surfin’” in 1961. Brian Wilson had never actually surfed before, and wouldn’t until Lorne Michaels did a comedy special in 1976, “The Beach Boys: Its OK” where Dan Akroyd and John Belushi dresed up as “surf police” and ordered him into the water. He surfed for his first time wearing a bath robe to cover his large stomach which he was really self conscious about. Annie Leibowitz was present and snapped the pic from this day that would become the Nov ‘76 cover of Rolling Stones magazine. |

Now you know thread.
Quote:
A professor once explained Einstein’s Theory of Relativity to the class… When you put your hand on a hot stove for only a fraction of a second, it seems like an eternity; When a beautiful girl sits on your lap for an hour, it seems like only a second. Now you know. |

In former times, … when ships buffeted by storms threw a portion of their cargo overboard, it was recognized that those whose goods were sacrificed had a claim in equity to indemnification at the expense of those whose goods were safely delivered. The value of the lost goods was paid for by agreement between all those whose merchandise had been in the same ship. This sea damage to cargo in transit was known as “havaria” and the word came naturally to be applied to the compensation money which each individual was called upon to pay. From this Latin word derives our modern word average.
