Marcia Smith 0:22
and Marsha Smith.

Bob Smith 0:39
Welcome to the off ramp a chance to slow down steer clear of crazy. Take a side road to Saturday and learn something with some trivia. We do this program each week for the Cedarburg Public Library and we love to learn new things. Marcia I found this fact recently and I was astounded. One of the modern telecommunications technologies we both use and most people use was named after an ancient Danish king. Do you know what it was?

Marcia Smith 1:06
Something we both use? Is it is it a phone or a computer?

Bob Smith 1:12
Or here’s a hint we get in the car we

Marcia Smith 1:15
set up the navigation system radios

Bob Smith 1:18
so we want to play something from our phones. What do we have to hit? There’s a button we

Marcia Smith 1:22
have to hit navigation.

Bob Smith 1:24
It’s a button.

Marcia Smith 1:24
What are you doing?

Bob Smith 1:26
I pointing to my teeth? I’d help you that with a visual clue.

Marcia Smith 1:32
Yes, Francisco Tooth Fairy. I don’t know

Bob Smith 1:36
Bluetooth. Oh, Bluetooth Bluetooth. Bluetooth. Yes, I have my Bluetooth was named after Harold Bluetooth Grimson you’re kidding a 10th century Danish king.

Marcia Smith 1:50
Could you believe that? Now Bluetooth was his name. Yeah, pretty because

Bob Smith 1:53
apparently he had a dead tooth, which looked black or blue to his followers. He was a king who died around 986 ad and the reason they named Bluetooth for him was because he brought together the warring tribes of Denmark the inventors of Bluetooth named their technology after that because they thought it would unite devices the way Harold Bluetooth united the tribes of Denmark

Marcia Smith 2:17
Wow, that’s pretty out there is that Yes. Should we name this okay remember barrel Bluetooth and there’s

Bob Smith 2:24
a Bluetooth logo which you if you look at any of your devices you’ll see it it consists of two runes are you any s which are ancient written symbols combined into one that’s known as a bind rune? And it’s his two initials. Really? Yeah, ancient B.

Marcia Smith 2:41
Well, that is actually fascinating. Yeah. That these guys knew about Bluetooth was amazing. Bluetooth is

Bob Smith 2:48
named after a Danish king. How can the nine hundreds I can’t believe

Marcia Smith 2:54
well, how about 1959? That’s pretty far back. hound dog man introduced what singer to film audiences?

Bob Smith 3:02
Well, obviously it’s not an Elvis film. Why do you say well, because we never

Marcia Smith 3:06
can give you an easy way. Okay,

Bob Smith 3:08
yeah. Give me an easy one. Is it Elvis? No. Thanks a lot for you just got me on that one. We

Marcia Smith 3:14
just saw the movie Elvis.

Bob Smith 3:16
Okay. So it was just like somebody like Gene Pitney. Somebody else from that area?

Marcia Smith 3:20
Yes, it was somebody else from that era. Now. We were pretty young. I don’t know. Did you ever see it? I don’t remember. I don’t know. When it hit television. I think I eventually saw it. But the answer is Fabian. Oh, no kidding. He cute but not not how? Singer Fabian. Yeah, he was no Elvis, that’s for sure. But he looked good. And he I don’t know what he did in Hound Dog, man. But that was his claim to fame and it introduced him to the world.

Bob Smith 3:48
Maybe he ate hot dogs. Hey, I

Marcia Smith 3:52
got a hot dog fan. I got a hot dog fact to really? Yeah. Last week, how many millions of people eat hot dogs on the fourth day? So my

Bob Smith 3:59
new one is and maybe it’s the same one you’ve got? You’ve probably read this in the recent news, which US city consumes the most hot dogs? No, I didn’t read that. I’ll give you four cities and you choose which one? Baltimore Philadelphia, Los Angeles or New York City?

Marcia Smith 4:14
What was the question? Where was it originated? What

Bob Smith 4:17
city consumes the most? The most? Because we said 150 million are consumed on the Fourth of July alone. Yes. What city overall? New York, New York. Well, that makes sense. Yes, because fatdog Nathan’s hot dogs was in where it was at Coney Island, I believe. Yeah. No, it’s Los Angeles. Oh, really? I went to guess. Yeah, Americans spend more than $7 billion on hot dogs and sausages in supermarkets. The city that took the Top Hot Dog honors Los Angeles Angelenos eat 30 million pounds of hotdogs a year followed by New York, Dallas Fort Worth, Chicago and Philadelphia.

Marcia Smith 4:58
Good to know I know our son out Los Angeles must have ate a lot but that was due to poverty.

Bob Smith 5:05
You know most of the hotdogs are consumed at baseball stadiums are many of them. Oh, and they cost a fortune. They’re 18 point 3 million are consumed at baseball stadiums. Can you believe the EN LA Dodgers fans alone consume 2.7 million hot dogs in 2019? So might think of Hollywood and Los Angeles as the glamour capital but the favorite sandwich is the hot dog

Marcia Smith 5:27
Darren I think they serve that at the Academy Award dinner don’t pay. Okay, so here’s the big question, Bob. Why do we call them hot dogs?

Bob Smith 5:36
Oh, I see. Was it because they looked like dachshund in those. Those buns?

Marcia Smith 5:42
That’s out. One thought Yes. In the mid 1800s German immigrant butchers in the United States began selling variations of sausages. Some of them were long and thin. They look like the axens the wiener dog and over time that phrase may have been bastardized into hot dog. You know the call them Dachshund sandwiches. Oh, is that right? Dachshund sausage. It’s sad because they look like that’s what the National Hot Dog and sausage Council suggests.

Bob Smith 6:13
There’s a sub there’s a council, the National Hot Dog and sausage Council. I didn’t know we weren’t invited. I didn’t go to their music.

Marcia Smith 6:21
Yeah, so that’s the Dachshund but there’s two words for hot dogs. There’s frankfurters and wieners. And can you tell me the difference? No, I can’t I guess you just are not up on your

Bob Smith 6:32
trivia. Not a big one on wintertime. I know where most of them are eaten, but I don’t know why they call this an

Marcia Smith 6:38
unsettled debate out there on the council. Especially

Bob Smith 6:42
a big hot dog debate going on. Okay.

Marcia Smith 6:44
The former is named for a city Frankfurt, Frankfurt, Germany. Yeah. And the latter Vienna because wiener is the German adjective that means Vienna. So that’s where they’re from Frankfurt and wiener Vienna today, so I didn’t know that and the council, the sausage conscious. And the sausage Council easy for you to say says this argument is too hard to pin down

Bob Smith 7:09
winning winner versus frankly. It’s been a burning argument of mine. Yes. They

Marcia Smith 7:14
just dumped it is too much for him. Okay.

Bob Smith 7:17
All right. Let’s speak more of Europe. I have an interesting question for you today. What country does the word spa come from? Does it come from Sweden, Finland, Belgium, Turkey or the UK?

Marcia Smith 7:33
Well, you know that the one that seems most obvious would be the first one. What was that Sweden? You know, Swedish massage? Yes, sure. Did you ever get a massage? Oh, we got one together. Yes,

Bob Smith 7:43
it was good.

Marcia Smith 7:44
So I’ll say Swedish.

Bob Smith 7:46
Well, you know, they had spas in Europe during the the Romans had spas in England and other places they built why wouldn’t you think the UK?

Marcia Smith 7:54
Okay, the UK? No.

Bob Smith 7:58
It’s neither Sweden nor the UK. I’ll get to it. It’s Belgium. I’m surprised it really Yeah. If you’re a spa lover, you might want to add Belgium to your bucket list because there is a Belgium city actually called spa and most historians say that’s the origin of the word we commonly use today. And in Roman times that town was called aqui spondon A and was known for its healing thermal baths according to the writings of Pliny the Elder I know you’ve been reading him every every night and nobility frequented the town’s baths now Peter the Great put Spa on the map all over Europe in 1717 and then that name made its way to other similar establishments. Okay, Bob,

Marcia Smith 8:38
in the US. What are considered the most lethal and dangerous animals?

Bob Smith 8:44
Other than human beings? Yeah, that’s

Marcia Smith 8:46
number one.

Bob Smith 8:46
Okay, Bears

Marcia Smith 8:48
Bears. That’s number nine.

Bob Smith 8:49
Oh, really? Okay, so it’s in the top 10 All right, let’s say dogs.

Marcia Smith 8:53
That’s number two.

Bob Smith 8:54
There we go. Because you know rabid dogs things like that are dogs that attack people are three

Marcia Smith 8:59
things here in Wisconsin. What causes a lot of accidents, badgers?

Bob Smith 9:04
No. Wait a minute. Wait a minute. You’ll get it cheese heads. No, no, wait a minute. No, I don’t know what causes a lot of accidents deer.

Marcia Smith 9:13
Do dear car accident. So it’s humans, humans, dogs and deer deer. Number four farm animals. Number five your favorite Hornets, bees and wasps. Oh, yes. due to allergies. Number six black widow spiders. Seven venomous snakes. Snakes. Okay. Yeah. Eight is mountain lions. Nine bears. And sharks are number 10. Sharks are the top 10 Well, yeah, but there’s only about 16 attacks a year. Well,

Bob Smith 9:42
that’s interesting. I

Marcia Smith 9:43
don’t know how it

Bob Smith 9:44
could be in the top 10. So those are the top 10 most dangerous animals and number one and number one is human being

Marcia Smith 9:50
Oh yeah. Buy tons more. Yeah.

Bob Smith 9:52
Is there any breakdown of human beings like man versus women? Versus Okay,

Marcia Smith 9:56
I think man probably taps it. Testosterone baby test. Astra Oh, that’s

Bob Smith 10:00
an interesting list. That’s a very interesting list.

Marcia Smith 10:03
Glad you like it.

Bob Smith 10:04
Okay, I’ve got some other lists. I got some names. I’m going to ask you about common last names around the world. Got a few questions on that today. So what is the most common last name around the world? Is it Zang Wang Smith or Rodriguez?

Marcia Smith 10:19
It is. It’s one of the Asians. Okay,

Bob Smith 10:22
you’re right on that weighing. It is weighing. You know what that means?

Marcia Smith 10:26
I don’t know. I mean, King

Bob Smith 10:29
in Chinese. It’s the most common last name in the world. Of course, China’s were more people named Wang are. And many of the most popular last names come from China. I didn’t know this either. With names like Wang Li Zheng, Liu Chen, Yang Huang, Xiao Zhu, or woo,

Marcia Smith 10:48
woo. I do like Vera Wang. So there’s one popular one that I like.

Bob Smith 10:53
So anyway, 40% of Chinese citizens use the last names that I mentioned just now, including Wang being number one.

Marcia Smith 11:00
Well, here’s a fascinating question, Bob. What’s the difference between lollygag and dilly dally?

Bob Smith 11:09
We were talking about this the other day. I’m gonna look this up.

Marcia Smith 11:12
I told you you weren’t lollygagging.

Bob Smith 11:14
I was accused of a boss of lollygagging once. Oh, did you? Oh, yeah. So we’ll don’t lollygag

Marcia Smith 11:20
My job was.

Bob Smith 11:20
Let’s not talk about. Okay, all right. lollygagging what’s the difference between lollygagging and dilly dally? Yes. Well, that’s a scientific question you’re asking there. dilly dally, doesn’t it come from the Howdy Doody show? Mr. dilly dally? Wasn’t that his name? I don’t know. Mr. lolligag was no no, I don’t know. The answer is I am at a loss bash. Well,

Marcia Smith 11:46
lollygag is to dawdle slack off or linger, and more appropriately to fool around in the most sexy way because back in the early 19th century in England, if you were a lollygagging, you were probably fooling around with somebody. Well, that sounds good. Yeah. Whereas dilly dally means more to waste time like you were dilly dallying this morning before we could get to the show. Oh, come on. It means that wasting time by being slow or not able to make a decision or to stall.

Bob Smith 12:19
So if you’re going to have an affair with somebody, you want somebody who Lolly gags not somebody who dilly dallies, that is correct. Okay, Don, dallying is wasting time. Yes, lollygagging is getting right to

Marcia Smith 12:28
write to it. You’ve learned a lot here. I’ll be right. Okay. Oh,

Bob Smith 12:32
my goodness. Hey, do you know what the big new trend in casinos is? I read about this the other day. This is fascinating. What’s the big new trend in casinos right now?

Marcia Smith 12:42
Hmm. A new trend in casinos. Yeah,

Bob Smith 12:45
it’s in many casinos right now is surprised to find this out. Cash. I don’t know. Fine Art. What? Yeah. For example, in 2022 Atlanta’s Hard Rock Casino is hosting the highly acclaimed beyond Van Gogh, the immersive experience, which was a huge hit here. It’s played all over the country. And it’s the thing that projects 300 of Van Gogh’s works digitally. On two screens, walls, ceilings and floors, other casinos are doing likewise, it’s bringing in new people. That’s right. Well, the Bellagio gallery of Fine Arts in Las Vegas has displayed works by Picasso, Monet, Warhol, Titian and Van Gogh. The Palms Casino Resort has pieces by Richard Prince and Andy Warhol. And Maryland’s live casino has an art collection including works by Robert Indiana Warhol and other artists.

Marcia Smith 13:36
Wow. Like I said, brings in different kinds of people. If anybody

Bob Smith 13:40
gets a connection with Van Gogh, maybe the next time they’re in New York, they’ll want to go to the Museum of Modern Art and see the actual Starry Night hanging on the museum wall. If so, that will be a win. Okay, hamburger. Well, you go from fine art to hamburger.

Marcia Smith 13:55
Where does the word hamburger come from? Well, that comes from , Okay, good. That was leftover from my hotdog cart.

Bob Smith 14:01
This is a leftover from a hot dog question.

Marcia Smith 14:03
Yeah, there’s no tofu, but that’s Chinese and you know what it means in Chinese? No. Rotten bean. Oh, God.

Bob Smith 14:10
That’s why I don’t like tofu. I

Marcia Smith 14:13
chew on that. Okay, let’s

Bob Smith 14:15
get you on that. Let’s take a break. We’ll be back with more food and name questions in just a moment. You’re listening to the off ramp with Bob

Marcia Smith 14:22
and Marsha Smith.

Bob Smith 14:26
Okay, Marsha. We’re back again with the off ramp.

Marcia Smith 14:28
All right, here’s a quickie who is Ethan Hunt. Ethan

Bob Smith 14:32
Hunt. He’s one of those characters on what is He? Is he a character? Is he an actor?

Marcia Smith 14:37
He is Tom Cruise in Mission Impossible.

Bob Smith 14:43
We all know the name Yeah, but it didn’t associated with like the James Bond films which of course you associate with James Bond. Right but Ethan

Marcia Smith 14:50
Hunt is if you choose to accept this assignment Okay, Bob. When and where was the first wheel barrel invented? The first wheelbarrow probably wondering that this morning over.

Bob Smith 15:03
I was wondering if I think

Marcia Smith 15:05
about it, who

Bob Smith 15:06
patented the wheelbarrow. Do we know the name of the person who actually came up with it? Yes. Okay. Let’s say it goes back to ancient Mesopotamia,

Marcia Smith 15:14
no. Samaria. No, Egypt. No,

Bob Smith 15:17
I ran no Iraq,

Marcia Smith 15:19
China, of course in 231, ad 231. Wow. I guess we do have a name is Xiao liang of Shu Han. In China. He created in 231 ad, a single wheeled cart for an efficient way of transporting food and supplies to the frontlines of battle.

Bob Smith 15:39
What have you got any royalties from that event? Yeah, I mean, that’s Yeah, but so

Marcia Smith 15:43
he had to get food and supplies up to the front desk. They were always fighting China. Interesting. And he’d bring it up in a wheelbarrow because it was too hard to you know, carry on your back. I

Bob Smith 15:53
wouldn’t have thought of the need for armaments or supplies and more I could see using it for agriculture. But yeah, okay. Isn’t that interesting, huh? That is interesting. All right. Marsha. We talked last week about the 574 tribes of the United States. And we talked about the states with the highest number of Native Americans being California, Oklahoma. What states have the smallest Native American populations? They’re both on the East Coast.

Marcia Smith 16:21
Yeah, I was gonna say I bet they’re on the East Coast. I’ll say, you

Bob Smith 16:27
say Virginia Marsh, Virginia. No. Just trying to help. Okay, tell me Vermont has the lowest total number of Native Americans of any state it has 8169 People recognized as being a Native American tribes. As far as counties go, Los Angeles County and California has the highest total number of Native Americans 233,000 officially recognized Native Americans in Los Angeles. Some interesting statistics leftover from the last time we talked about Americans, you’ll

Marcia Smith 17:00
like this answer. Okay. How about the question? Oh, all right. Do you know that the US Navy has a 50,000 acre forest to call its own? Yes, I do. I read about in Indiana. Why?

Bob Smith 17:13
Because they need the lumber for the USS Constitution for God’s sake. All right. Well, that’s a famous fact that yeah, they set up this forest. And they had the right timber there to prepare the USS Constitution, which is the ship in Boston Harbor.

Marcia Smith 17:29
Yeah, yeah. The US Navy is sustainably managing a 50,000 acre forest and Indiana to replace the old timbers in old ironsides.

Bob Smith 17:40
It is interesting that they were still doing that to preserve that old ship. They

Marcia Smith 17:45
sell some of the timber to sustain it by itself. Oh, really? Yeah. The waterproof wood is sold to the Kentucky distillers for our to make casks for bourbon. Now

Bob Smith 17:56
there it’s being put to good use it somehow we can all benefit from that. Yeah. So they are using that timber for other purposes. And it’s used to pay for everything now, huh? Okay. All right, Marsha. More common name questions. We talked about the most common name in the world. It’s Wang, w a n g. That was the first word processor I’ve used was a Wang word processor that goes back. What’s the most common last name in the UK? Australia and New Zealand? Is it Jones? Is it Williams? Is it Smith or Tremblay?

Marcia Smith 18:28
Tremblay? I’ll say Smith. You’re right. All right.

Bob Smith 18:32
Yes, Smith, the Smith name, which refers to the historic profession of blacksmithing originated in England and it’s spread across the British Empire. But its popularity is waning, though. In 2020 Most newborn babies in New Zealand were named Singh s i n g h.

Marcia Smith 18:48
Their last name? Yeah. All right, Bob, does outerspace have a smell. Does

Bob Smith 18:55
outerspace have an aroma. You mean? Yeah. Yes, it does.

Marcia Smith 18:59
And what is it?

Bob Smith 19:00
It’s called Cosmic smell. I don’t know. Is it true? Yeah,

Marcia Smith 19:04
it does. Astronauts, they all report in sort of similar ways. It either smells like burning metal, walnuts and brake pads. Gunpowder, burnt almond cookie. One thing they all have in common is

Bob Smith 19:18
it’s a bird smell. Yeah, but those are all different kinds of Bootsma Well,

Marcia Smith 19:22
much like wine kind of sores. Bob. A smell is something a bit different in the bottle when astronauts report differ slightly in there smelling notes. But, but the one thing in common is it’s you know, a burnt smell.

Bob Smith 19:36
Burning metal or burnt walnuts or a totally different smell. It’s just accurate

Marcia Smith 19:40
and accurate. Well, you know, it’s like people taste different things when they taste cilantro. It’s totally different reaction.

Bob Smith 19:47
Is that right? Yeah. All right, Marsha. Almost 40% of the people in Vietnam have the same last name. What is it? Why? The name is ng Uyen with I believe is pronounced Nguyen. And here’s a tidbit Vietnamese people have been using last names since 111. BC. Really, it’s just like the wheelbarrow, you can actually put a dat to this. The reason they know that is because the country was under the control of China during the Han Dynasty, they kept great records. And back then the Chinese Empire was just beginning to assign people last names. And it’s believed that a Chinese official gave all the people in their newly entered territory of Vietnam, the same name. And the name actually then was are you a n which became n GUYE? N, it’s still used by 40% of Vietnamese people. Hmm.

Marcia Smith 20:38
I’ll be darned. All right, Bob. Did you know there are almost 2000 known species of cactus? No, I didn’t. And they are only located in the Americas. I

Bob Smith 20:49
just found that out recently. And I was surprised. Yeah. All except

Marcia Smith 20:53
one. Which cactus are we talking about?

Bob Smith 20:57
So this cactus is grown in the United States, but it’s also grown in other parts of the world. And it’s the only species that is in other parts of the world. Is that right? Yes,

Marcia Smith 21:06
Bob? And what is it it is the mistletoe cactus or the spaghetti cactus. So

Bob Smith 21:11
those are two very different names. Yeah.

Marcia Smith 21:14
But you’ll recognize it when you see it. Even I know that cactus when I see it. But the scientists aren’t sure how it migrated. But the best guesses are birds, or sailors? Or

Bob Smith 21:27
it’s so funny birds, or sailors, or both, or both. Yeah,

Marcia Smith 21:29
you know that they might have taken a little sample from the Americas and then took it to decorate their ship. Could

Bob Smith 21:36
be sailors with birds, you know, the parents

Marcia Smith 21:39
hadn’t thought of that. Look at a pirate movie.

Bob Smith 21:41
They always have a bird on their shoulder. Here’s

Marcia Smith 21:43
a little interesting factoid. A cactus can live up to 200 years and the tallest cactus in the world is in Mexico. And it’s 63 feet tall. Oh my

Bob Smith 21:53
goodness. That’s amazing. Now I knew that when I first went down to Arizona, I was told that those big cactuses that have arms, many of those are over 100 years down in Phoenix Tucson in that area. But I didn’t know they could live to be up to 200 here so yeah. Wow. And they’re basically containers of water, aren’t they? Yeah,

Marcia Smith 22:12
they hold their water. Okay,

Bob Smith 22:14
I do. That’s called retention motion. Okay, here’s some retention the brain let’s try this. Okay, nine of the 10 top most common Mexican surnames, and in what letter CAC you and your I’ll give you a choice you always want choices Marsh do I’ve given you choices. Okay?
