Who Came Up with Pullet Surprise?
The author Amsel Greene wrote the book entitled, "Pullet Surprises" in 1969 in which she writes her observations of the writing blunders of the students in her English classes of 30 years. She had been documenting her students' strange gaffes and had been searching for the perfect word for them. A student of one of her fellow teachers had written this in an essay: "In 1957, Eugene O'Neill won a Pullet Surprise." Greene had what she called a "eureka" moment and decided that "Pullet Surprise" was the perfect descriptor of these writing bloopers.

Netflix, Amazon and YouTube will all offer 4K streaming in the future. Vizio just unveiled a 50-inch 4K TV that will sell for the relatively low price of $999. All signs point to this technology jumping from the show room to the living room. The only problem? Americans might need to get rid of their VCRs first.
Yes, the majority of Americans still own a VCR, according to a Gallup poll released during CES. In fact, at 58 percent, more Americans own a VCR than own a desktop computer (57 percent) or tablet (38 percent).
You can basically do whatever you want with an empty church. Except turn it into a mosque. Christians HATE that.
