Pigs in Texas
One of the guys in the office has a real problem with this in his neighborhood.
They have feral hogs in Memorial Park, and the rangers used to hunt them for their annual BBQ

Fortran Introduced Today
Oct. 15, 1956: Fortran Forever Changes Computing’s Fortunes | This Day In Tech | Wired.com
From that link, you can download the original Fortran manual. I think that was back in the day when people actually read manuals.

Small things that make life more convenient
Oddly, they both come from Kohler.
One is the "quiet close" toilet seat. We alwasy close our toilet lids - first, because we don't want our dog drinking out of the toilet, and second, because they just look better that way. These quiet close seats mean you simply need to tilt the seat past the equilibrium point, and they gently close. This has a downside, however. At other people's house, we freuqently slam the toilet seats when we just tip them past the equilibrium point...
The second are bottom basin racks for sinks. We bought one of these when we decided to NOT buy a double sink. They are so nice to have, that we bought one for the other, exisiting sink in the house. It makes it much easier to wash and dry dishes, and it is simply convenient.
Odd, little things that make life easier.
