“Great Place For Mozzarella Sticks & Elixirs…He Was Moving at 40 Moments An Hour…& No Goddess… Just Ground!!”

The first ever Applebee’s opened in 1980 in Decatur, Georgia . . . under the name “T.J. Applebee’s Rx for Edibles & Elixirs.”  (Yes, despite that name, it was 1980, not 1880.)

Technically, a “moment” is 90 seconds. The word “moment” debuted in the 1398 Oxford English Dictionary, and it says there are 40 in an hour . . . so that’s 90 seconds each.  But obviously the definition has evolved to just mean “a short amount of time.”

The only planet in our Solar System that’s not named after a Roman god or goddess is . . . Earth.  Earth comes from an old English word “ertha,” which means “ground.”
