The RSPCA was puzzled by the number of dead crows being found on roads,  they had been hit by a moving vehicle while tucking into roadkill.  Even more puzzling when they examined the birds closely was that most had flecks of paint on them, but only from motorbikes, not cars....   They decided to watch the crows and see what was happening - well they noticed that the crows ( clever birds ) always posted a lookout to warn the others when traffic was approaching.  They found that the crows could make a Caw noise, but they hadn't learned how to say 'motorbike' yet....

If we are not supposed to drink WD40, why does it come with a straw?

it is to give you a straw to clutch at if you are reduced to using WD-40

What's the difference between WD-40 and varnish? About three weeks.

That is so true,  the maintenance department at one company I worked at banned WD-40 from the site, after initially being used as a lubricant it ended up sticking things together.  I am surprised Evostick did not take over WD for the recipe.  To be fair WD is an anti corrosive coating that disperses any water ( WD = Water Dispersant, and it was the 40th recipe they tried hence the '40' ) and then leaves a sticky coating behind to discourage corrosion ( a side effect is that the coating is a very effective 'dirt magnet' ).  Trouble is it is now sold as 'snake oil' being the cure-all for everything.

And things are even more confused as other lubricants (silicone oil, lithium grease) are also being sold under the WD-40 brand nowadays.

Guy from Texas visiting England, looking around his English friends 2000 acre Estate,  boasting that 'this little ol' patch of land would fit into a corner of my cattle ranch,  it takes me all day just to drive round my property' - the Englishman laughed and said, 'yeah, I used to have a car like that'....

I hadn't driven my car for a while due to lockdown and I just couldn't remember how to get the seatbelt on.  Then suddenly it clicked.

I want, nay, need to stop this horse from interrupting me.

Also, thanks to whoever explained the meaning of cornucopia to me. It means a lot!
