TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: Physicians Give Awesome News With Update On Damar Hamlin

TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: Physicians Give Awesome News With Update On Damar Hamlin

Some of the best “good news” stories come in the wake of something really bad that happened. Just how life works. And that is what happened earlier today when the Buffalo Bills and Damar Hamlin’s family gave us an update on Damar’s progress…

Apparently he opened his eyes and was holding the hands of his family members. Which has to be the most amazing feeling ever for them.

Sending all our prayers and love to Damar and his family. I think this tweet says it all…

MUNDANE MYSTERIES: Where did coffee tables get their name?

MUNDANE MYSTERIES: Where did coffee tables get their name?

Maybe you had friends and family over on New Years Eve and sat around the coffee table in the living room until midnight. But they weren’t always called that.

That name was because of prohibition. Before 1920, these tables were called “cocktail tables.”  When prohibition hit and alcohol became illegal, people started serving coffee to their guests instead. Ever since then the “coffee table” name stuck and has been used ever since.

I always thought they should be called “feet tables” because that’s when everyone does when the plop down on the couch, throws their feet up.
