Poop molecules from flushing give us a regular low dose to keep our immune system polished and ready to fight a major immersion during some kinkier aspects of our sex lives.

Today I learned about Lester Wunderman.

Ol' Les was an ad man. A great ad man, apparently.

He and two associates opened Wunderman, Ricotta & Kline in 1958 with no clients. They billed out $2 million in the first year. 1958 dollars.

Among the things they came up with were direct marketing (Les basically invented this, we know it as junk mail), the Columbia Record Club, the toll-free 1-800 number (?), the magazine subscription card, the postal ZIP Code system (?), and the customer rewards program.

Making me feel kinda, idk, less.<---See what I did there?

Ol' Les died January 9. At 98 years of age.

No Les, no more.

Today I learned:

Quote:
Hahajima Island of Japan is home to a fragile snail. All right, “fragile” in the sense that it is really tiny—around 0.25 centimeters (0.1 in). A thumb can easily crush Tornatellides boeningi.

When researchers recently collected bird feces on the island, they found that it contained snail shells. Oddly, some of the snails appeared to be alive. Curious, the team fed over 100 mollusks to a captive population of the two bird species known to snack on the snails.

Remarkably, around 15 percent were expelled unharmed. One snail even gave birth shortly after being pooped out. The digestive system is not a Disney ride. The snails endure a harsh journey lasting 30 minutes to two hours. Why such a good percentage appear to suffer no ill effect is a mystery.[1]

The best theories at this point?

Small equals survival. Tinier shells might be less prone to cracks and digestive juices seeping in. Tornatellides could also seal themselves away behind a mucous film that safeguards the shell’s opening.
From here. Yeah, Wiki, it ain't.

There’s some 63,000 licensed gun dealers, more than twice McDonald’s+Starbucks.

Burglaries of federal firearms licensees increased, from 377 in 2012, to 577 in 2017.

Between 2012 and 2017, burglars stole more than 33,000 guns from dealers.

Stolen firearms bring the highest price in CA, NJ, NY, and New England.

Only CA, CT, MN, and NJ laws require gun stores to use physical security measures.
