7.24.09

• Bourbon is the national native spirit.

• After the oak barrels used to store bourbon are retired, they're sold to the scotch industry and used for storage again.

• Midnight is part of the day ending, not the one beginning.

• Tanning beds date to at least 1945.

• Frost-free freezers are prone to frozen lines and have to be thawed (read: take everything out and unplug it).

• The federal minimum wage increases to $7.25 today. When I got my first job, it was $5.15.
