STOOPID FACTZ !

The word "Salary" was derived from the Latin salarium referring to the salt allotment for soldiers in the Roman army.

Steak tartar was created by the men of Attila the Hun who tenderized raw lean meat cuts by placing them under their horses' saddles.

Forks as eating tools were introduced in Greece by 1100 AD.

Eskimos use refrigerators to keep food from freezing.

PS Two years ago we lost two TV in a storm at the beach and after we bought new TVs we found out the cable company hadn't grounded the cable and that it was their fault.
