A Texas woman became a recipient of one of these when she was just finishing up her shift at Dallas store Roma Boots and checked her bank account and discovered the surprise. . . $37,000,000.00!

Thomas Edison is known as one of America's greatest inventors. We can thank him for the light bulb, phonograph, and even the movie camera. But did you know he is also partly responsible, along with his friend Edward H. Johnson, for inventing Christmas lights? According to the Library of Congress, Edison created the first strand of electric lights in 1880, which he hung outside his laboratory in Menlo Park, New Jersey, during Christmastime that year. However, it was Johnson, his partner at Edison Illumination Company, who, in 1882, became the first to wrap a strand of hand-wired red, white, and blue bulbs around a Christmas tree. And the rest, as they say, is history!

Everyone should easily recognize the exterior of this house.
