My secretary began to post unusual news articles, cartoons and pictures of faraway lands on our office bulletin board. Although she changed the items on a regular basis, no one mentioned her efforts.
Eventually she put up a notice stating that she would give one dollar to the first person who read the announcement and informed her about it. Two weeks later, she received her first acknowledgment, a handwritten reply left on her desk:
"I just wanted you to know how much I enjoy your interesting bulletin board. /s/The cleaning lady."
I've met a few people in my time who were enthusiastic about hard work. And it was just my luck that all of them happened to be men I was working for at the time.

False eyelashes were invented by film director D.W. Griffith while he was making the 1916 epic, "Intolerance." He wanted actress Seena Owen to have lashes that brushed her cheeks.
