I Didn'T Know That

Among coffee and peanut butter
Crayons have a most recognized smell
But did you know that smelling them
Can lower blood pressure as well?

Looking for synthetic rubber
World war two saw something displayed
But not what they were attempting
That was how Silly Putty was made!

June Foray the voice of Rocky
The squirrel that was known for flying
Also lent her voice to a doll 
Chatty Kathy on her was relying!

In 1955 Disney Land
Opened with Tomorrowland for kicks
Based on a city in the future
Around the year 1986!

Hmmm ... I didn't know that ... lol! Cool and hip infomercial poem, PAT. Very nicely layered w/facts that will come in handy, I'm sure, in case of a zombie apocalypse. Really cool poem of Seinfeld-esque facts. May love light your path always.
