August SKI Tips

  1. ​The sandwich was invented in August of 1762 when the Earl of Sandwich requested two pieces of bread with meat inside.
  2. Bamboo in August can be seen growing with the naked eye at up to two inches an hour.
  3. Prepare beds for fall planting of spring-flowering bulbs.
  4. Place a dryer sheet in your pocket to help keep mosquitos away.
  5. In 1959, Ruth Handler’s idea was rejected by the Mattel Corp., a company that she and her husband, Elliot, had founded in their garage some years before. After revising her product, Handler reintroduced “Barbie”, named after her daughter. “Ken”, named after her son, was introduced in 1961.
  6. Don’t put cold meat on the grill. Bring ingredients to room temperature before you cook; they will then cook more evenly and quickly.
  7. About 2,000 years ago a mysterious culture now called Hopewell Tradition filled earthen mounds with tens of thousands of artifacts, giving Indiana one of the most important archaeological sites in the United States.
  8. You actually lose a large percentage of your taste buds while on an airplane. This might explain a lot about those less-than-stellar in-flight meals or why you find yourself craving the saltiest foods while in the sky.
  9. Green algaes are food for fishes and brown algaes are usually in salt water and are called seaweeds. Kelp is one of these. Brown algaes are used as fertilizer, and from the ash that is left after burning it, we get iodine and potassium.
  10. If humans had the proportionate capability of a tiny flea (less than an eighth of an inch in size) they would be able to do a 600-foot broad jump and a 360-foot (36 story) high jump. In nine leaps you could cover a mile.
