DAD FACTS

If you’re like me, you hold on to trivial (aka useless) knowledge in the event a perfect conversation happens wherein dropping this knowledge will make me look like I’m smarter than I am, then here are some facts to commit to memory...

1. The Secret Service was originally created in 1865 to deal with rampant counterfeiting, to stabilize America’s financial system. By the end of the Civil War, nearly one-third of all currency in circulation was counterfeit.

2. If you’re over 50, the world population has doubled in your lifetime.

3. The word “Ouija” is trademarked by Hasbro.

4. Terrell Owens is the only player in NFL history who scored a touchdown against all 32 teams. In fact, he scored at least two touchdowns against all of them during his career as a wide receiver with five different teams.

5. With inflation, the value of a dollar is less than HALF what it was in 1996. In other words, it takes $211 today to buy what it cost $100 to buy 30 years ago.
