If you find yourself in the South, wear long pants and shoes no matter how hot it is, especially while asleep. These things are a foot high.

If you travel to England, it's the badgers you have to watch for. It's your fault now; you've been warned.

I've heard that Nutria are becoming more prevalent in Oregon:

I'm a big Gordon Ramsay fan, and I'm heartbroken at his porn dwarf double's gruesome death. Looks like his lookalike is named Percy Foster...

...and he got eaten offstage by a badger.

They found him in the underground chamber. Fortunately, the star we know, Gordon Ramsay, is alright. I own all his movies and he's really great.

Why are you biased against dwarves? Are you saying you don't believe that my favorite movie star Gordon Ramsay (he autographed my hand and I haven't washed it for 3 years) doesn't really have a porn dwarf double who is him only miniature? Or are you saying the porn dwarf double wasn't really gobbled up by a badger in his underground lair? What is your problem? Why are you a cynic?

Liquid Paper was invented by Bette Nesmith in 1951. And yes, her son Mike was a member of the Monkees, a 1960s TV show.

Bette's story is recounted in Why Didn't I Think of That? by Allyn Freeman and Bob Golden. She was divorced and approaching a new secretarial job; she had learned to type on manual machines and now faced electric typewriters. (If you don't know what we're talking about here, ask your parents to explain.) A light touch caused letters to appear on the paper, and the mistakes from a carbon ribbon didn't erase. (If you don't know what a carbon ribbon is, ask your 'rents about that one, too; there's only so much info we can provide.) So Bette put some white tempera waterbased paint in a small nail polish bottle, painted over her mistakes, and voila! Liquid Paper.

'Twasn't quite that easy, of course. She moved to another secretarial job with her little "white over" bottle, and other secretaries requested some for themselves. She labeled the bottles "Mistake Out." Friends and an office supply dealer suggested she market more broadly, and she changed the name to Liquid Paper and started to experiment with the formula.

In 1957, IBM rejected her product. Undaunted, she continued to turn out Liquid Paper one bottle at a time with the help of her son and his friends. By the end of 1957, she was selling about 100 bottles a month.

Over the next few years, word spread; by 1962, she was up to 5,000 bottles a week (having recruited part-time help) and by 1966 she moved Liquid Paper to a modernized production facility outside Dallas and produced 9,000 bottles a week, selling beyond just Texas.

Eventually, Nesmith hired marketers and sales and finance folk, and automation took over. Gillette purchased the company in 1979 for $48 million, when it was generating $38 million in sales.

Bette Nesmith died in 1980, at a young age 56, leaving about $50 million, half to her son and half to philanthropic foundations. Another American success story, a cottage industry operating out of a kitchen, growing to an international company.
