Ugh, I hope not! Would you want to eat lettuce that's 101 years old?

Comment: Here's an item that just came to my attention when I was checking out the
"is he still alive?" status of Harvey Korman: http://www.funnyordie.com/articles/b...ace-at-funeral I checked your site by using the same string of words and came up empty! Also, no other sites re: Mr. Korman's funeral told of this strange occurrence. I'd love to know if this is, in fact, true or (as so often happens) it's just another urban legend that you hadn't gotten around to checking out (because no one told you about it until now!) |

Comment: is this true??
Every time a new Pope is elected, there are many rituals in accordance with tradition. Well, there is one tradition that very few people know about. Shortly after the new Pope is enthroned, the Chief Rabbi of Rome seeks an audience. He is shown into the Pope's presence, whereupon he presents the Pope with a silver tray bearing a velvet cushion. On top of the cushion is an ancient, shriveled envelope. The Pope symbolically stretches out his arm in a gesture of rejection. The Chief Rabbi then retires, taking the envelope with him and does not return until the next Pope is elected. A new Pope's reign was shortly followed by a new Chief Rabbi. He was intrigued by this ritual, and that its origins were unknown to him. He instructed the best scholars of the Vatican to research it, but they came up with nothing. When the time came and the Chief Rabbi was shown into his presence, they faithfully enacted the ritual rejection but, as the Chief Rabbi turned to leave, His Holiness calls him back. "My brother," the Pope whispers, "I must confess that we Catholics are ignorant of the meaning of this ritual enacted for centuries between us and you, the representative of the Jewish people. I have to ask you, what is it all about?" The Chief Rabbi shrugs and replies: "But we have no more idea than you do. The origin of the ceremony is lost in the traditions of ancient history." The Pope said: "Let us retire to my private chambers and enjoy a glass of kosher wine together; then with your agreement, we shall open the envelope and discover the secret at last." The Chief Rabbi agrees. Fortified in their resolve by the wine, they gingerly pried open the curling parchment envelope and with trembling fingers, the Chief Rabbi reached inside and extracted a folded sheet of similarly ancient paper. As the Pope peered over his shoulder, he slowly opens it. They both gasped with shock - It is a bill for the Last Supper from "Moishe the Caterer" |

Why should Catholics pick up the tab for the Last Supper? Jesus was Jewish.

Comment: One of my Facebook friends reposted this, and I thought it was
suspicious: DO NOT wash your hair in the shower!! It's so good to finally get a health warning that is useful!!! IT INVOLVES THE SHAMPOO WHEN IT RUNS DOWN YOUR BODY WHEN YOU SHOWER WITH IT. WARNING TO US ALL!!! Shampoo Warning! I don't know WHY I didn't figure this out sooner! I use shampoo in the shower! When I wash my hair, the shampoo runs down my whole body, and printed very clearly on the shampoo label is this warning, "FOR EXTRA BODY AND VOLUME." No wonder I have been gaining weight! Well! I got rid of that shampoo and I am going to start showering with Dawn Dishwashing Soap. It's label reads, "DISSOLVES FAT THAT IS OTHERWISE DIFFICULT TO REMOVE." Problem solved! If I don't answer the phone, I'll be in the shower! |

Comment: I've been hearing this story that the inventor of sugar-sticks
committed suicide because nobody used his invention correctly. Most people shake the packet and then tear of the top, instead of just snapping it in half as intended. I can't find out anything about the actual inventor of sugar-sticks (as opposed to the inventor of sugar packets, who died at the ripe old age of 89). |

Comment: The following is something I came across on facebook in conjuction with a
photo of a girl sitting on an airplane. Because of the dialogue and the source (who posted this) I question the validity of this scenario. I would like to know if this was contrived or based on an actual situation. Thanks, looking forward to your reply -------------------------- An atheist was seated next to a little girl on an airplane and he turned to her and said, "Do you want to talk? Flights go quicker if you strike up a conversation with your fellow passenger." The little girl, who had just started to read her book, replied to the total stranger, "What would you want to talk about?" "Oh, I don't know," said the atheist. "How about why there is no God, or no Heaven or Hell, or no life after death?" as he smiled smugly. "Okay," she said. "Those could be interesting topics but let me ask you a question first. A horse, a cow, and a deer all eat the same stuff - grass. Yet a deer excretes little pellets, while a cow turns out a flat patty, but a horse produces clumps. Why do you suppose that is?" The atheist, visibly surprised by the little girl's intelligence, thinks about it and says, "Hmmm, I have no idea." To which the little girl replies, "Do you really feel qualified to discuss God, Heaven and Hell, or life after death, when you don't know shit?" And then she went back to reading her book. |
