I was checking out this list of supposed facts and found at least two I know had been mythbusted

http://www.snapple.com/help/DefaultNonFlash.aspx

:haha:

#36 A duck's quack doesn't echo. (this is on SNOPES as false too)

#77 No piece of paper can be folded more then seven times. (they never specified how BIG a piece of paper!)

I'm not sure about this ones...

#117 The starfish is the only animal that can turn its stomach inside out.

Enough tequila can do a pretty good number on a human bean, too!

:rofl:

Life is like a bowl of beer flavored chocolate covered dog turds.. it makes no sense. :pokinit:

Where is the Mammoth?

How the Mammoth came to be

Number Two :pokinit:

I thought mythbusters did the paper fold thing and couldn't do it. They tried it with huge paper and little scraps.
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first.

I contend that for a nation to try to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle.

Nah, I saw this not long ago.  I think they wound up folding it 10-11 times.  It was a big ol'  piece of paper, and they wound up using a forklift to squash it down, but it folded!  :thumbs:

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free. "

"I don't believe in a government that protects us from ourselves."
              -Ronald Reagan

Don't take life too seriously, it isn't permanent
