At the Cheers Halloween party Cliff comes from the back room
explaining his latest insight to one of the bar patrons.
Cliff just returned from a Florida vacation an this is the
first of many interesting facts about Florida.
There are
many theories as to why the Florida orange is far superior to
it's California counterpart. I personally think it's the trace
mineral elements in the Floridian water. That's obviously due
to the frequency of typhoons in the nitrogen rich alligator
guano. Furthermore, there's three points...
(Bar
patron: "Say, I just remembered I left my oven on, if I
hurry I can stick my head in it")
The truth:
Although typhoons and hurricanes are
basically the same thing, tropical cyclones, they are only
called typhoons when they occur in the western Pacific or
Indian oceans. When they occur in the Atlantic Ocean, Caribbean
Sea or eastern regions of the Pacific Ocean they are called
hurricanes.
Even though guano is rich in nitrogen,
we are pretty sure alligators do not produce it. Here is the
definition of guano, you decide:
A substance composed chiefly of
the dung of sea birds or bats, accumulated along certain
coastal areas or in caves and used as fertilizer.
Any of various similar
substances, such as a fertilizer prepared from ground fish
parts.
