You learn something new everyday...

[Emadyville]

So I thought I'd start a thread about it, what have you learned today?


I learned that a Japanese company TCL (electronics) is a billion dollar company that buys up failing electronic businesses in Asain countries and their patents, and one well-known company they bought was Panasonic.
Also, they use both names in a lot of smaller buy-ups, so purchasers of the original brand still buy and buyers of TCL buy as well, which I guess is more for customers with brand loyalty.

Why did he do that?

I'm assuming just because he was insane. I think it had to do with his relationship with his mom, who was very controlling. Told her and her brothers women were evil and to never lose their virginity. I think that's why, cause he did dig up his mothes grave, take her skull, and shrink it.

Ha, Ed Gein was nothing. Look at what Albert Fish did.

I learned that "boston" was a racial slur Native Americans used to call white settlers. That's where the city name comes from.
