Cliff Clavin

One of the t.v. shows that I really loved to watch was Cheers. It was such a funny show. One of the funniest characters was Mailman, Cliff Clavin. If you watched the show, you will know that Cliff was the resident "know-it-all". He was always spouting off "a little known fact". I wanted to list a few of Cliff's "little known facts" that made me laugh.

"It's a little known fact that the smartest animal is a pig. Scientists say if pigs had thumbs and a language, they could be trained to do simple manual labor. They give you 20-30 years of loyal service and then, at their retirement dinner, you can eat them."

"Everyone in the Swiss Army owns a Swiss Army Knife. That's why no one messes with Switzerland."

"It's a little known fact that the tan became popular in what is known as the Bronze Age."

Funny stuff. I never got into cheers, but that was pretty funny.
