Under healthy circumstances, Horseshoe Crabs and a few other sea creatures have blue blood which uses hemocyanin, a copper-based blood protein that turns dark blue when it carries oxygen. The rest of us animals use iron-based hemoglobin, which turns red when it carries oxygen.
I knew those dirty San Francisco hippies invented blue jeans! Why can’t young people wear neatly pressed trousers and sensible skirts?! (I’m kidding of course, jeans were no doubt invented before the 1960s.)
During the Gold Rush of 1849 a young tent maker with a load of cotton denim went to San Francisco looking to ply his trade. He found that the miners wanted pants, not tents. He went about making pants and soon everyone wanted pants made by Mr. Strauss. “We want pants like Levi’s”
Dogs have been mayor of Rabbit Hash, Kentucky for years. The last mayor was a Pitbull. The election for Wilbur had some animals that weren’t even dogs! No people, but, I do know that there was a candidate that was a donkey!
I lived in a small town for awhile that had a Labrador mix dog who was elected mayor. Mayor Bosco. He won two terms, and served until his death. I think it is not all that uncommon, really.

We should replace mitch with Wilbur! I am positive He will do a better Job.

Wilbur was tricked into becoming mayor. He thought it meant that he would get all of the Rabbit Hash he could eat.

Rabbit Hash’s mayor is always an animal. It’s been a tradition for more than 20 years.

And the leaf on the Canadian flag is based on a real leaf. The resemblance is uncanny… :P

Wilbur is already better than the horse manure Columbus OH has for a mayor!

CBC had a documentary on jeans. The UN says it takes 7500 litres of water to create one pair of jeans.

Monarch was the 2nd cousin of Yogi and just as smart. The state of California still pays his estate royalties.
Wilbur is the odds on favorite to unseat Rand Paul, or finally beat Senator McConnell in an election.
With no known vaccine, the only way to avoid contracting sulfhemoglobinemia is by abstaining from having sex with a Vulcan.
The original California 49ers liked the way their butts looked in the new pants.

Good for Wilbur! His first action will be to remove all leash laws.
