You can't sneeze and keep your eyes open.
In fact you can surpress a sneeze by forcing your eyes to stay open.

Back in 2013, the state of Wyoming only had two escalators (one pair) as it was cheaper to build outwards into the expanse rather than upwards.
Not sure of the escalator numbers now to be fair. South Dakota and Montana didn't have much more either!

After watching Henderson run around a bit tonight put me in mind of John Lennon' s lyric from Being for the Benefit of Mr Kite :
The Hendersons will all be there, late of Pablo Fanques Fair, what a scene.
So, with typical mid Victorian zeal, and Google, here's a poster that Lennon saw, containing virtually all the contents of the song.

The same shift in meaning from a gift is seen in German, where it means poison and Dutch where gif also means poison.
In fact it seems to only be in English, where gift or its cognate doesn't mean Poison in the Germanic languages.

Now, where's the port.
