…That Will Change Your Concept of Time Forever, at least according to Todd Van Luling for The Huffington Post:

I’m not going to spoil the whole relatively short list, but my favorite bit has to be number 3, that the Ottoman Empire still existed the last time the Chicago Cubs won a World Series!

No, I’m not a Chicago Cubs fan nor, for that matter, all that much more than a very casual baseball fan, but I am keenly aware of the struggles that long suffering club and her hometown has had.  The last time the Chicago Cubs won the World Series was way back in 1908, years before the beginning of World War I and, yes, before the fall of the Ottoman Empire in 1922.

Amazing.

If that one intrigues you, you’ll enjoy the other 7.  My second favorite item is the first one listed and involves Betty White.

I’ll spoil things no more!
