Things Are Not Always What They Seem.

Okay, you're driving and you look out your window and see a friend walking towards a traven and  you assume he is going there for some drinks. Is he/she really?  Well, in my case there happens to be a movie theater right next to the bar even tough it seems I was going to a traven actually I was going to the movies.

You walk pass my house look in my window and you see smoke and assume I am smoking. I could be I am old enough ,but in this case I was soldering wires from an electronic piece of hardware.

You heard of caesar salad and assume it was named after Julius Caesar not so. It was named after an Italian Caesar Camdini who moved to Mexico and had control of restaurants in both U.S.A and Mexico.

Fig Newtons  was not named after the scientist but for a small town in Massachueets and the story of an apple falling on scientist Newton's head was all fantasy.

Now buffalo wings: wait !  buffaloes do not have wings.Actually buffalo wings is a recipe that came from Buffalo, New York akin to Pekin duck.
