Seven Things I didn't know last Sunday

I have had such a social life lately I have neglected this...so sorry.
I am going to be the proud Grandmother to a baby girl. The plan is to name her Khloe. Guess I can't call Joanna's tummy the grandbelly anymore.
I saw a car on my street here in Hollywood with a Oursman sticker on it. Oursman Chevrolet was a dealership in PG County Maryland. I can still sing their jingle.
England taxes their citizens for owning a TV.
Radio Caroline did sink in '79 but not as dramatically as the movie ship sank.
I disagreed with someone about the song "Aint no Sunshine when she's gone" I knew it was Bill Withers but the other person thought it was written by Al green and covered by Bill Withers. Well as we know I was right but, look what I discovered in my search to prove how right I was.
"When thirty-one-year-old Withers recorded "Sunshine," his first chart hit, he was still working at a factory making toilet seats for 747s." He originally intended to write more lyrics for the portion of the song where he repeats the phrase "I know" twenty-six times, but the other musicians told him to leave it the way it was. "I was this factory worker puttering around," Withers said. "So when they said to leave it like that, I left it."
