The word “moment” debuted in the 1398 Oxford English Dictionary, and it says there are 40 in an hour . . . so that’s 90 seconds each. But obviously the definition has evolved to just mean “a short amount of time.”
2. The only planet in our Solar System that’s not named after a Roman god or goddess is . . . Earth. Earth comes from an old English word “ertha,” which means “ground.”
3. The busiest day of the year for KFC is Mother’s Day.
