Making Z Zoup
A pinch of this...a dash of that...
Minus 40 degrees Celsius is exactly
minus 40 degrees Fahrenheit.
This is the only temperature for which
the readings on both scales are equal.
Irving Berlin never learned to read music or to write it.
He hummed or sang his songs to a secretary,
who wrote them down in musical notation.
Chips Ahoy! cookies are baked in ovens
which are as long as a football field.
Over 4,000 cookies exit the oven each minute.
Sir Isaac Brock, the hero of the War of 1812,
was buried four separate times.
He was first buried in a fort,
then in the old Brock monument,
then in a temporary grave after that monument
was damaged in an explosion,
and finally laid to rest under the current Brock Monument.
I've got to make my rounds.
But, you stay right where you are.
Keep the troops entertained and the Canteen clean...
Cause...if you don't...I'll tell Ma!
REMEMBER THEM ~ DEFENDERS OF FREEDOM
