Most times when you’re flying all you want to do is get to your destination in the quickest way possible. Layovers, detours, delays are all words you do not want to hear mid-flight.
Unless you were on this easyJet flight from Iceland to the U.K. this week, maybe. The pilot of the plane decided to take a quick detour spinning the plane around 360 degrees to allow the passengers to see the amazing and extremely rare Northern Lights display. Seeing is from land is one thing, I can only imagine how cool it is from the air.
I would’ve been more than okay with this one, but I’m sure there were a few grumpy passengers who just wanted to get to the runway.

This is one of those heated debates that pops up every once in a while on the internet. Twitter, reddit, comment sections, people have hot takes on Oreos apparently. Mainly, are they evenly part cookie part cream. I always thought it was almost 50/50. But that isn’t the case at all.
The real ratio of cookie to cream is 71% cookie, 29% cream. Which is way more cookie than I thought! I guess once you get into the Double Stuffed Oreos these numbers get a little more close.

Greg and Breanna have a six-year-old son. Breanna is adamant that he does not overconsume sugar because he turns “crazy”. She has worked hard to remove sugar from his diet to help manage his tantrums. The problem is when he goes to his friend’s birthday parties (and there have been many lately) and he has cake or cupcakes. She would like to start bringing her own dessert for him to these parties so he doesn’t have the sugar, but Greg thinks it’s humiliating to their son. What do you think? (37:05)

It’s scary enough to be stranded at sea on a boat. Now imagine being stranded with no food except one bottle of ketchup.
That’s exactly what happened back in December to this sailor named Elvis Francois who was stranded for 24 days until the Columbian Navy rescued him. Elvis says he only had some seasoning packets, a little garlic powder, and a bottle of Heinz ketchup. That’s what he was able to survive on.
Now that Heinz has heard about his story they want to help and support Elvis and his family. Including buying him a brand new boat!
I’m guessing he’s sick of ketchup… but a lifetime supply would nice too.

Welcome to the last day of February Snow Storm! The 28th. The shortest month of the year. But why is February shorter than every other month?
It all goes way back to Roman superstitions. A Roman king named Numa wanted the calendar to match the lunar year so part of that was to make every month have 29 days. In those times ever numbers were bad luck, hilariously. But he needed one of the months to have an even number so it would all work out so he decided to shorten February to 28. February was a month that Romans would recognize the dead so they figured that would be okay to make it unlucky with the even number
Now, the calendar as we know it has changed many times since then. Yet no one has ever changed February from 28 days. Weird!
