Fall Is Here
With autumn here, I am shocked at the speed in which this year is passing. As the weather starts to cool down, I am finding gratitude for the slowness of fall. Soon, the trees will be turning red and the comfort food will be on the table. I like to find small things to be grateful for, even when the circumstances are grim. We hope that everyone enjoys the ability to return to the community, and also continues to follow CDC guidelines to keep our vulnerable populations safe and healthy.

Fun Facts
#1. Walmart has a lower acceptance rate than Harvard.
Harvard might be hard to get into with a 4.5 percent admittance rate, but try this on for size: only 2.6 percent of Walmart applicants are accepted.
#2. There is a technical name for the "fear of long words."
It's called "hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia."
#3. Hunting unicorns is legal in Michigan.
Lake Superior State University in Michigan offers a unicorn hunting license. Unsurprisingly, the "chief herald of the Unicorn Hunters" was once quoted saying: "The pursuit of the unicorn is a lonely quest." We wish them nothing but good luck!
#4. Someone actually paid $10,000 for invisible artwork.
An art collector once paid $10,000 for a "non-visible" sculpture created by actor James Franco. The artwork was billed as an "endless tank of oxygen." Um, yeah… it's called air. We're breathing some now… for free!
#5. There is an official ruling for how many Tootsie Pop licks it takes to get to the center.
It officially takes 364 licks to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop. Well, at least according to engineering students' scientific endeavor at Purdue University, who used a proprietary "licking machine" rather than a human tongue.
