Who cares any more?


The possible title for the last prediction
1.
What has changed in the world since 1987.  Nothing. New Zealand beats France in the World Cup in NZ.





How good and or stereotypically French, is Marc Lievremont’s lip warmer?



This quote is awesome




Now that I got that out of my system we can get down to busy-ness.

The breakthrough in pencil technology came when French inventor and chemist Nicolas Conte developed and patented the process used to make pencils in 1795.
The bikini was an invention created in France in 1946, named after the Bikini Atoll in the Marshall Islands, the site of atomic bomb testing. The French inventors were Jacques Heim and Louis Reard.
Francium was discovered by Marguerite Perey in France (from which the element takes its name) in 1939. It was the last element discovered in nature, rather than by synthesis.  Symbol Fr and automic number 87.
Greatest Inventions *
Referee whistle - William Atack 
New Zealand referee William Atack became the first sports referee in the world to use a whistle to stop a game in 1884. 
The referee’s whistle is now the norm for umpiring, but until Atack came out on the ground whistling, referees had to raise their voices to control games. 
Eggbeaters & hairpins - Ernest Godward 
Ernest Godward - who was British-born but emigrated to New Zealand in his teens - was a prolific inventor. His many inventions included an eggbeater, a burglar-proof window and, in 1901, the world’s first spiral hair pin - an international success that allowed him to set up as a full-time inventor. 
Jogging maestro - Arthur Lydiard 
New Zealand athletic trainer Arthur Lydiard invented jogging - the method of building up physical fitness by gradually increasing stamina. This system is used by millions of people worldwide as part of their everyday health and fitness regime. 






 *Greatest Inventions is a toss up
**A wise old hobo once told me ‘numbers don’t lie’.  France won the Tale of the Tape 4-2.  Therefore France will win the Rugby World Cup.  Or am I scoring like golf (lowest score wins) who knows. 


Enjoy muppets.
