I learned that Al Capone when in prisoner in Eastern State Pen was haunted every night by a spirit name Jimmy he would scream out to the guards to get him out of the cell. Jimmy was believed to be one Jimmy Clark murdered in the St. Valentines massacre believed to be a hit ordered by Capone. It is said the Ghost followed Capone back to Chicago after his release and haunted him till the day he died.

this guy was scary alive image him haunting you

I had never heard that before, very interesting! Thanks for posting that. I might haunt some people when I die.

Might have something to do with the syphilis that eventually killed him.
Edit: Capone, that is.

You know that was my first thought but it is reported members of his gang actually saw him standing in Capone's office real enough that they went after him with guns drawn

How about warm and dry? Hot?

Wait, what about very cold? Not just regular cold, but really, really cold. What about then?

If you step outside and instantly get frozen to the spot, it has worked too well.

Today, I learned that maybe it's worse to be offered a new job than to keep the crappy one I have now.
The devil you know, and all that.

Really, really nervous.

The harder I work, the luckier I get. I learnt that on this day, in 1973

 

[ZenG]

I learned that it's not the hours you put in to work..

It's the work you put in the hours.

Today I land that The ExoMars mission is hoping to land their module at 3:48pm UK time - that's just under an hour away

All the indications are good so far, but there is clearly tension in the ESA main control room as we wait for more signals from Schiaparelli to say what is going on.

The Schiaparelli decent module uses a heatshield, a parachute and thrusters to stop itself from crashing into the surface.

Practise makes perfect.......but not if you're practising wrong.

I learned today that the County Courthouse and Hall of Justice are two different places.

I also learned that I could not pay my property tax at the Hall of Justice

But you can file a report there if you have information about what the Joker might be up to.
