Things that Trouble Me When I Should be Sleeping

How did the town in north Central Victoria known as Yea get its name?

It's obviously a town that sprung up out of necessity to the farmers and possibly miners (I don't know much about the history of the area). But did it reach a point when those in charge were like, "Right, this place is no longer a place for passing travellers to spend the night. It's a town now, and we need to give it a name, yea or nay?"

A chorus of "Yea!" from everyone.

"Right, what should we call it then?"

No response.

"Right, well, tomorrow we'll come up with a name for the new town, yea or nay?"

"Yea!"

And because no one could come up with a name someone decided to just name the town Yea in honour of the fact that they always said "Yea!" to naming the town "tomorrow" ... which, if that's the case Victoria could've had a town called Tomorrow instead of Yea.

Either that, or they were smoking something funky and thought that naming a town Yea would be extremely hilarious and made it official before they sobered up.

Why Are My Roof Handles in the Camel's Mouth?

Ok, so I get that companies like to think up new and unique ways of showing just how tough their product is. But generally these tough tests are done to the more extreme of whatever the product is likely to face once it is in the customer's hands.

That's why I'm confused about why one of the Roof Handles tough tests include being

chewed up by a camel.

When is a camel ever going to get the chance to eat your Roof Handles?

I mean, ok, I am a bit of city slicker as five year Flynn (not Finn!) so kindly pointed out to me over New Year's. But I do have some country blood in me and some experience in the country. Never did I once see a single camel running around on the roof of the farm houses, just looking for something to nibble on up there.

But then my country exprience is only limited to NSW and Victoria. Maybe the other states have a camel problem that is so bad that they even climb the roofs of houses.

It just seems to be a bit of a weird and very random test to include when testing the durability of a product.
