I heard silly putty was invented while trying to produce an alternative to rubber in WW1.

Escorts at M.I.T. Dance Pay 1c a Pound on Girls, Tax on Hair. Yes, you read that correctly. Every male student that brought a girl to the December 17, 1932 “dorm” dance had to pay an admission fee based on his date’s weight. In addition, there was an added tax on the girl’s hair color. Brunettes were an added dime, blondes fifteen cents, and the rare redhead was twenty cents.

lol..
