Everybody’s Talking!Fainting canine: Emma Clayton and Oliver Broomhead ofSheffield, England, have a unique dog in their family. Thecocker spaniel named Peter has a rare condition in which hismuscles tense up, causing him to fall over. This happens whenhe gets excited about something, such as chasing ducks andsquirrels. The couple has taken the dog to many veterinariansand animal specialists, but the condition continues to be amystery. They assure onlookers who witness Peter’s faintingspells that he does not appear to be in any pain, and that hecomes out of it just fine, with tail wagging.Wacky car rentals: When people rent vehicles or use acar-sharing service, the logical reason for doing so is to travelfrom one location to another. However, car rental agencies inJapan found that some customers were putting very littlemileage on their rented car, and they wanted to find out why.It turns out that people have many more reasons for renting avehicle than simply driving somewhere. Renters were usingvehicles to take a nap, eat lunch, get work done on their laptops,or make phone calls. They do so because car rentals are usuallyaffordable and provide a quiet space.Odd name: A couple from Indonesia gave their baby boy aunique and unusual name: Google. Parents Andi CahyaSaputra and Ella Karina decided to give their child a technology-related name with the idea that he would grow up helpingothers. At first, their friends and relatives wondered about thedecision, some thinking that the couple’s hidden agenda was toget compensation from the technology giant. However, thatwas not the case, and the name eventually started to grow ontheir friends. Baby Google does not have a middle or surname.Good-looking goat: Who would have thought that a good-looking goat could garner widespread attention? That’s whathappened when Ahmad M Fadzir of Perak, Malaysia, postedphotos of his newly purchased goat, Ramos, on social media.The goat is so cute, with his goatee beard and blond bangs,that the photos went viral. Ramos seems to love being acelebrity and even appears to pose for the camera with asmile on his face. A few people asked Fadzir if he would sellRamos, but he declined. Instead, he offered them anothergoat from his herd.

Did You Know...Building designer: Moshe Safdie is an Israeli-Canadian-American architect who has designed many famousbuildings around the world, including Marina Bay Sands, ahotel in Singapore, and Habitat 67, a housing complex inMontreal (Canada).Falling water: Niagara Falls, which is on the borderbetween the province of Ontario (Canada) and the state ofNew York (U.S.), is made up of three cascades. The largest ofthese is called Horseshoe Falls, named for its shape.Main stage: The Nippon Budokan arena in Tokyo was builtin 1964 as a site for judo in the Olympic Games.

On the Lighter SideWhat’s the difference between ignorance and apathy? I don’tknow and I don’t care.

I tried to say, “I’m a functional adult,” but my phone changed itto “fictional adult,” and I feel like that’s more accurate.

Recording on a tax help line: If you understand English, press1. If you do not understand English, press 2.

I have cities, but no houses. I have mountains, but no trees. I havewater, but no fish. What am I? A map.

Nothing ruins a Friday more than an understanding that todayis Tuesday.
