Brock's Daily Post

Good morning Phoenix! Welcome to Tuesday - Tasty Tuesday, as I sometimes refer to it. Stay safe and warm, and curl up with us!

Pop Culture Trivia for February 11, 2014
► 1752- The first hospital in the United States, Pennsylvania Hospital, opened
► In 1808, as an experiment, anthracite coal was burned as a fuel
► Vice President Dick Cheney accidently shot good friend Harry Whittington in 2006 while the two were hunting together

Joke of the Day:
A cab driver reaches the pearly gates. St. Peter looks him up in his Big Book and tells him to pick up a gold staff and a silk robe and proceed into Heaven.
Next in line is a preacher. St. Peter looks him up in his Big Book, furrows his brow and says, "OK, we'll let you in, but take that cloth robe and wooden staff."
The preacher is shocked and replies, "But I am a man of the cloth. You gave that cab driver a gold staff and a silk robe. Surely I rate higher than a cabbie!"
St. Peter responds matter-of-factly, "This is Heaven and up here, we are interested in results. When you preached, people slept. When the cabbie drove his taxi, people prayed."

Quote of the Day:
If what you've done is stupid but it works, then it really isn't that stupid at all. David Letterman

Random Factoid of the Day:
Spotted skunks sometimes do a handstand as a warning before they spray.
