How Odd?

There's some weird facts out there, right? I mean, some of the things people come up with, you 

wonder what kind of mind they had? 

The follwing are a few examples:

Pay for sunlight?

Who would think of taxing windows in a building? Well, according to weird facts, William III introduced a tax in 1696 requiring those who had more than 6 windows in their house to pay a levy! No, really, it was known as daylight robbery! 

In order to avoid the tax, people would brick up all windows except 6.


Ever wonder why dogs get sprayed so much by skunks?

I can tell you when they do, wow, is it stinky! We had 2 Irish setters when I was a kid and they got sprayed. I remember lots of tomato juice being used on them!

Well, when skunks lift their tales, dogs think it's an invitaion to sniff! The reality is a warning. Talk about getting the wrong message! 

What a smelly outcome!
