The US House of Representatives recognized that Alexander Graham Bell was not the original inventor of the telephone, in H. Res 269. They gave that recognition to Antonio Meucci. In 1887, the SCOTUS found the case viable and remanded a trial, but it was dismissed shortly after Meucci’s death.

Tweets From People Who Might Love Their Dogs More Than Their Life Partners
I have a feeling that this article is going to resonate with a lot of folks out there…
Why, you ask? Because I’ve seen countless examples of people out there who seem to like their dog more than their spouse or their partner.
You think I’m crazy? Well, you’re about to see the proof, my friends…
And then you’ll never doubt me again! Ever! About anything!
And I think these tweets might even resonate with YOU…let’s take a look.
1. Don’t even worry about him.
You’re the ones I really love.
Whenever my husband shows me affection and my dogs get jealous, I have to tell them that they are my true loves and he means nothing to me.
— Stacey (@skittle624) November 3, 2018
2. Hmmm. I don’t like the sound of that.
What do you think it means?
I sneezed and my husband didn’t say a word.
Fifteen minutes later the dog sneezed.
Husband FROM UPSTAIRS, “BLESS YOU!”
— Lady Lawya (@Parkerlawyer) February 26, 2020
3. We all know who she loves more.
There’s really nothing you can do about it.
If you want to know how I rate in our household, my wife has one term of endearment for me and 74 for our dog.
— Kent Graham (@KentWGraham) March 24, 2017
4. Get a free pass.
On pretty much everything.

me: Hi puppy— Josh (@iwearaonesie) October 6, 2016
5. Starting to hurt your feelings.
Might need to go to couple’s counseling…with the dog.
My husband has already apologized more to the dog in 3 weeks than to me in 6 years
— Sarah Cooper (@sarahcpr) January 6, 2020
6. Give it a rest, okay!
The dog is driving a wedge between the two of you.
Husband: *gets in the shower*
Me: Honey! Come quick! Hurry!
Husband: *soaking wet* What is it? What’s wrong?
Me: Look what the dog is doing. Isn’t he the cutest?
— Jingle Bell Jawbreaker ? (@sixfootcandy) December 18, 2019
7. This is what it’s like.
Oh well, that’s life.
My husband came home from being gone for 6 days, walked through the door & went straight to the dog.
And that’s what it’s like to be married for 20 years.
— Sarcastic Mommy (@sarcasticmommy4) January 6, 2020
8. Let’s have a talk.
Good, she’s not around…
I like to think my dog follows me to the bathroom so we can gossip about my wife in private.
— lucy bexley? (@bexley_lucy) July 10, 2020
9. I agree with this philosophy.
You’re doing the right thing, sir.
I will give my wife a back rub for 5 minutes before I get tired but I'll rub my dog's ears for hours until he ends it.
— Dan Regan (@Social_Mime) November 17, 2017
10. Not you, the dog.
Oh…never mind…
*Arriving home at the end of the day*

11. You sound a little annoyed.
Are you annoyed yet?
Another romantic evening with my husband except it's us watching TV while he cuddles with the dogs.
— EricaTriesToTweet (@EricaWhoToYou) July 3, 2017
12. This is gonna be great!
No, not you! The dog!
Me: Don’t forget we’re wearing matching costumes for Halloween.
Husband: Great! What should we be?
Me: I meant me and the dog.
Husband: Of course you did.
— Jingle Bell Jawbreaker ? (@sixfootcandy) October 7, 2019
13. I think it might be true.
Hey, it is what it is.
WIFE: He never pays any attention to me. All he cares about is that dog.
THERAPIST: is this true?
ME: [sewing swim trunks for the dog] is what true?

“Safety First” Does Not Apply to These People
How many times did you hear that when you were growing up in school, at home, and at various jobs you might have worked?
Well, apparently it didn’t really resonate with everyone out there, because these folks look like they’re about a millimeter away from something really terrible happening…and we’re worried about them!
Take a look at these photos of people who clearly aren’t too concerned with their safety…even though we all are.
1. Can’t you find another surface?
You’re making me nervous!
2. It was a different time…
I wonder if that thing tipped over.

3. That’s a heater?
You’re gonna have to figure out a different way, pal.
4. It looks totally safe.
Are you sure you’ve done this a million times?
"I’ve done it a million times. This is totally safe." – My coworker from OSHA
5. I’m surprised that works!

6. That’s really not good.
Let’s have an asbestos party!
7. Good Lord, get out of there!
Definitely an accident waiting to happen.
8. Don’t stand up too quickly.
I really hope you don’t get startled.
9. It’s cool, it’s only been 26 years.
What could possibly go wrong?
Today at work. from OSHA
10. Everybody hang on tight.
How do you think this ended?
Thanks guys! from OSHA
11. I’m gonna go ahead and put my foot…
Right here!
Stairwell was a bit tight for a ladder, no problem though, my coworkers are always there to support me! from OSHA
12. This is making me nervous.
About to be a bloody mess up in here.
Be careful out there, friends… because apparently a ton of you are taking some INSANE risks.
But first, we want to hear from you in the comments!
Tell us about a dangerous situation that you wiggled your way out of at some point in your life! At work, school, home, etc.
Thanks a lot!

Cooking Fails That Will Make You Shake Your Darn Head
Do you feel like your skills in the kitchen have improved during the pandemic and the lockdowns because there’s not really much else to do?
If so, then you are NOT like these people. Not at all, actually, because, based on these photos, these people shouldn’t even be let near a kitchen…or an oven…or even a toaster.
Take a look at these epic fails that took place in the kitchen and say a special prayer that these folks get their acts together soon…
Let’s see what happened.
1. Well, you failed.
Don’t try that again!
2. Who’s ready for a tasty, historical dish?
I don’t think that went over too well…
Tonight was foreign culture night in my house so I decided to cook a traditional dish from Pompeii from funny

This Artist Uses Tech to Show What Historical Figures Really Looked Like
Sometimes it can be hard to imagine what people from the past looked like before cameras were invented.
Yes, we have paintings and sculptures we can admire, but it sure would be nice to know what ancient leaders and famous artists of centuries past REALLY looked like.
Well, thanks to a photographer and artist named Bas Uterwijk who specializes in computer graphics and 3D animation, we have an idea of what some famous figures from history might have looked like.
Uterwijk started tampering with the likenesses of historical figures in 2019 and his work is really something. Here are some faces that the Dutch artist made come to life.
Let’s take a look.
1. Is that Bill Shakespeare?
Why yes, it is!
2. Albrecht Durer.
A German painter, FYI.
3. Portrait of a lady.
This one is pretty interesting.
4. That’s Lady Liberty.
If she was a real person…
5. Alexander the Great.
A giant historical figure.
6. Emperor Caligula.
A lot of crazy stories about this fella.
7. They lived in Pompeii in AD 79.
What they must have seen…
8. Playwright. Politician. Philosopher.
Taken from a sculpture. I like this one.
9. Marcus Aurelius.
An emperor and a philosopher.
10. Julius Caesar.
We all know what happened to him…
11. The one and only Vincent van Gogh.
A master Dutch painter.
Those are awesome! I love all the detail. His creations seem to jump right off the screen.
Who else would you like to see given this treatment?
Share some fascinating historical figures with us in the comments. Thanks!

Things That Looked Very Different Once They Were Cleaned
There are few things in life that are as great as seeing before-and-after photos of the magic of power washing.

Please and thank you!

People Shared Their Epic Cooking Fails and They’re Something to Behold
This is not good. Not good at all…
What you’re about to see might cause you to experience a range of emotions. You’ll probably laugh, you might cry, and you’ll most likely cringe and shake your head in disgust.
Because these photos of cooking and baking fails are not pretty…
