On March 22, 2005, ‘Boom goes the dynamite!’ was coined by Brian Collins on Ball State University’s student newscast. Filling in for the regular sportscaster, Collins was forced to ad-lib when a teleprompter error caused the script to skip ahead, resulting in the now-viral moment

Police in Central Park thought they were hunting down a skilled pickpocket after multiple visitors reported their phones mysteriously disappearing without anyone noticing a thing.
But while officers were questioning people in the park, a raccoon suddenly ran up, grabbed a phone, and exposed itself as the real thief. After chasing it through the trees, police found a hidden stash of stolen phones tucked away in a raccoon’s hiding spot.
They later announced that anyone missing a phone in Central Park could check with the station to claim it.

On New Year's Eve 1759 a brewer signed a 9,000 year lease on an abandoned Dublin brewery for 45 pounds a year. That brewery is now the most visited tourist attraction in all of Ireland.... It was the last day of 1759, and a 34 year old brewer from County Kildare walked into a negotiation for an abandoned, run down brewery in Dublin and signed a lease for 9,000 years at 45 pounds per year. Not a 50 year lease. Not a 100 year lease. Nine thousand years. The document still exists. It is embedded under glass on the floor of the Guinness Storehouse in Dublin and you can stand on top of it today. Arthur Guinness had inherited 100 pounds from his godfather a few years earlier, started a small brewery outside Dublin, and then watched a financial crisis sweep through Ireland in 1759 and make property in the city suddenly very cheap. The St. James's Gate site had been abandoned for nearly a decade. It was four acres, a small brewhouse, two malt houses, stabling for twelve horses, and a loft that could hold 200 tons of hay. It was not impressive. But it sat along the route of Dublin's new Grand Canal, had access to the city's water supply, and was available for almost nothing. Guinness signed on New Year's Eve and got to work. The water was almost immediately a problem. The 1759 lease had granted Guinness free access to Dublin's water supply as part of the agreement, which turned out to be one of most consequential lines ever written into an Irish property contract. By 1775 the Dublin Corporation had decided Guinness was drawing far more water than the lease permitted and sent the city sheriff with a crew of men to physically cut off the supply and fill in the channel. Guinness met them personally at the pipe with a pickaxe, declared with what the official record describes as very much improper language that they would not proceed, and threatened to dig his own channel into the city water system if they touched his. The city backed down. Guinness kept his water. The dispute ended up in court and was settled in 1785 with Guinness agreeing to pay 10 pounds a year for the supply, which was still an extraordinary deal. By the time Arthur Guinness died in 1803 at 77 years old, St. James's Gate was the largest brewery in Ireland. By 1886 it was the largest brewery in the world, producing 1.2 million barrels a year. By 1906 the workforce had grown to over 3,200 employees, with 10,000 people directly dependent on the brewery for their livelihood, roughly one in thirty of Dublin's entire population. The four acre site of the original lease had long since been swallowed by expansion. Guinness eventually bought the land and the surrounding properties outright as the brewery grew, which technically rendered the 9,000 year lease obsolete. The most famous lease in Irish history became a curiosity rather than a binding document, a victim of its own success. The original signed document from December 31, 1759 is still there on the floor of the Storehouse in Dublin. Guinness is currently about 265 years into a 9,000 year agreement. They are right on schedule. © Eats History #archaeohistories
