CRAP

Penguins can waddle-walk backwards. There are only two creatures that find it impossible to walk backwards: the kangaroo and emu, both from Australia.

CRAP

On June 26th, 1974, a single pack of Wrigley's chewing gum became the first item sold via a barcode.
This was accomplished without gumming up the works! <
