My ex-husband was in the Navy 30 years ago, and I *still* refer to vending machines as "gedunk."
(This statement is also a "useless fact," ;) )

Probably wise, Sir ;)
I heard this little gem on WGN radio, while I was on my recent drive to Muskogee for their Halloween festival. I was so excited, because it seemed an excellent fit for this space ;)

It's estimated that at any one time around 0.7% of the world's population is drunk.

That begs the question: 
At any one time during any Faire, what percentage of the Faire population is drunk?   ???
I'm betting it's a bit higher then 0.7%.
