Comment: I Have Heard A Very Interesting Rumour About A Cartoon Series
Based On The Video-Game Sonic The Hedgehog, This Particular Rumour Is
Based On The Series 'Sonic Underground'. A Character In It, Called Athair,
Is One Of The Main Characters' Grandfather...And There Has Been Much
Speculation About His Voice Actor, Because He Sounds Alot Like Sean
Connery!

But...It Is Unknown If This Is True, Because Of Many Unrealiable And
Unconfirmed Sources, Including IMDB, Who Say That He Is, But What Fans Of
The Series Don't Understand Is Why Sean Connery Would've Even Voiced A
Character In This Admitedly Unpopular And Quite Poor TV Show If He Has His
Fame, It Seems Unbelievable That Sean Connery's Acting Funds Could've Been
Funded By A Non-Wealthy Company.

I'm Not Sure, But I Have This Weird Feeling It Could Be 'Mr.Scotchland' In
That TV Show...

Comment: In Reference To The 11 Year Old Girl Shooting And Stopping Two
CRIMINALS From Doing Her Harm. I Hope She Takes Out More. Better Yet. I
Hope You People Get What You Have Been Wishing For. Murderous Criminals To
Invade Your Home. You Blow Me Away. If I Molested This Child. You Would
Want My Head. Someone Not Even From Here Can Attempt To Kill Her. That's
Ok With You. As Long As They Are From Some Other Country. Whose Own
Government Could Care Less About Them. I SO Hope You Have Children. AND i
Hope They Are Cofronted With A Far More Serious Situation Than This Kid.
And I So Hope I Get To Hear Your Screams When You Have To Bury What's Left
Of Them. WAKE THE **** UP.

Wow, so much wrong with that one, from sentence fragments, to immigration discrimination. (It's worse for someone "not even from here" trying to kill your daughter than a local?) And how ironic that the only word not capitalized is the word I.

It's hard to type that way - makes me think of Title Case in Word. Seriously, how did they get every word to be capitalized like that, without realizing it? Or do they think that's really how you write?

I'm Sure I Have No Idea What You're Talking About. I'm Sure Everyone Types This Way, In Some Way Shape Or Form.

Comment: First and Foremost:
You have a GREAT Site, and I Berate my Friends who Spread Urban Legends
for "Not Looking it up on Snopes before you Sent it!". You are the
Watchword in Accuracy, Ease of Research, Completeness, and Scientific or
Meaningful Examination of such a Wide Range of Tales.

Though it might be Beyond the Scope of your Articles, but I recently
looked at several Sites dealing with the Paul McCartney Death Conspiracy,
Backwards Masking, Album Cover Clues, etc. I found None on your site.
Have you Concidered such an Expose, or at least a Commentary that
Acknowledges this Urban Legend? I would like to See what you could do with
it, in the Quality I Expect from Snopes.

Keep up the MORE Than Excellent Work!
Have a Great One!

Comment: HELLO I am So VERY Sorry to Prove You Wrong But This Statement Must Be Made about
Sen,Barack Obama-- Indeed he is a Muslim Even Though he Joined a small Christian Church In Wash DC But that Pastor Said he Cannot Recall Seeing Him Attend, Also Sen. Obama REFUSED TO Place his Hand Upon a BIBLE ===But Instead==
He Demanded that he be allowed To Take His Oath With his hand on a Copy Of the Quran Which He Did
And then he went even Further as He Explained that this Exact Copy of the Quran was Originally Owned by Thomas Jefferson and Therefore This Was Proof that Jefferson was PRO-Muslim==
SO SAD BUT This was a False Statement==
Yes That Copy of the Quran Was Owned By Jefferson== But He Only Owned it Because He Considered Muslims to be THE Greatest Threat To America= They Had Sank Many American& British Vessels and They were the Main Reason America Formed the US MARINE CORPS THINK ABOUT THEIR SONG===
If you remember the Marines Hymn Goes LIKE THIS++ From the Halls Of Montezuma== To The Shores of TRIPOLI++ BECAUSE=IT Was In Tripoli That Muslims Took their Captives and Sold them as Slaves to Other Countries ==Here is MORE PROOF Of Obama's Involvent With MUSLIMS== Obama's Pastor said He was Upset Because OBAMA had Last Year Taken a Trip To TRIPOLI= and Met PERSONALLY with LUIS FARAKAAHAN THE LEADER Of the BLACK MUSLIMS
NOW = I ASK??? Please tell me Why Any Christian REAL Would Fly To Tripoli and Meet with the Leader of the BLACK MUSLIMS?? SIMPLY PUT OBAMA IS A MUSLIM 10000% SO PLEASE GATHER ALL OF THE FACTS BEFORE YOU REACH ANY CONCLUSION =A LOT OF PEOPLE TRUST YOU TO SPEAK THE TRUTH-- PLEASE DO NOT SELL OUT THAT TRUST TO SATISFY SOME POLITICIAN OK?????
His actions and Words Prove that He IS a MUSLIM WITHOUT ANY DOUBT==

My word, this hurts my eyes and head so much. I've seen a lot of caps abuse and the sort of ridiculous logic that this has, but what is up with the random equals signs?

Actually, it was the pastor (Jeremiah Wright), not Obama, who traveled to Tripoli; he went there to meet with Qadaffi, not Farrakhan (although the latter accompanied him); and this all took place four years before Obama joined the church.

Ambulance

Comment: In 1996 I had 2 Blood Vessels Burst in My Brain, the Emergency
Services (Ambulance) took me to Baylor Hosp. in Garland, they refused to
treat me because I was AMERICAN, had No Insurance, Medicare/Medicaid,
Emer. Ser. took me to Parkland, they also refused treatment for the same
reasons, I was admitted to Zale Lipsey Hospital, on the promise that They
could use me as a TEACHING PATIENT and TAPE the SURGERY for classes, I had
to have my wife sign the papers since I was in a COMA by the time I
reached the Hosp.

Emer. Ser. wouldn't take me to the VA (thank Goodness) I survived the
Surgery but it left me 100% disabled and it took me over a year to get
Disability from SSI, the Doctors stated that the cause was from a Head
Injury I received Probably while in Viet Nam, since I had been Under
Treatment for The Injury since 1974 from the VA, but the VA wouldn't
approve Disability, now the DAV is assisting me in attempting to get
Disability from the VA for the Injury, the VA says it's "Under REVIEW" !of
course they want witnesses, from 38 years ago !!!! They are all DEAD!!!!!

Just goes to Prove One Thing , or maybe 2, If Your AMERICAN don't expect
anything, if Your a VETERAN, EXPECT EVEN LESS !!!!!

I understand people typing in all caps, but this. I don't see how you can do it...

No? But she has three, count them, Three! Buldging Districts in her back! You would think she could at least get them to pay her a portion of their taxes considering she is letting them live in her body. Actually, maybe that is why SS has reduced her payments - they expct her to be charging those districts rent!

Isn't it illegal in the US to turn away an emergent situation due to lack of insurance? Case Here I remember in college a doctor here in the valley got in hot water for turning an undocumented patient away from his office. She later died of appendicitis.
