Next batch.... It helps to read the question then rotate your brain through 90 degrees before answering.... and the answer is usually not the obvious one.

What do we have Thomas Crapper to thank for?

The flush toilet.

 

[TheDr]

The flush toilet.

Surprisingly not.

Thomas Crapper (1836 - 1910) was a London plumber who held nine patents: for manhole covers, drains, pipe joints, and, most notably, the ballcock.
Though Crappers 'Silent Valveless Waste Water Preventer' was a flush toilet, the patents was not his: it was giled by a Mr. Alfred Giblin in 1819.

when Neil Young switched from his long-time label Reprise Records to Geffen Records in the early 80s, he changed from his well-known musical style that had brought him much commercial success to other styles such as electronic, rockabilly and country - these releases were not commercially successful for Young. David Geffen, head of the label, promptly sued Young for producing "uncharacteristic and uncommercial music".

Queen Victoria was one of the first recipients to get a flush toilet but she refused to use it. Why?

She was afraid she'd get sucked in?

 

[Ceiling Cat]

I hear they kept you on though as the official Royal Ass Licker.

You heard wrong, I would never relieve you of your livelyhood.

BTW -Queen Victoria refused to use the flush toilet because it would announce her activities every time she used it because if the flushing noise.

The third fastest land animal, is me leaving Julie at Mirage, if you know what I mean.

Well, for your sake, I hope you aren't the fourth fastest land animal during your session. I worked as a farm hand on a dairy farm for a couple of summers in my mid teens, and I've seen cow sex. Blink and you miss it.
