 CLAIM: Lemmings commit suicide by hurling themselves, en masse, off cliffs.


 FALSE:  Lemmings do not periodically commit suicide by hurling themselves off cliffs. The idea that they do is just a myth. Belief in this myth was strengthened by a 1958 Disney documentary, White Wilderness, in which the filmmakers herded some hapless lemmings off a cliff in order to show this supposedly natural behavior.

Where I learned that Disney circa 1958 was staffed by Lemming Haters:

OMG

The Magic Eight Ball has been replaced by

The Magic Cellphone!

When you’re done on the phone vist:

Visit the Magic Showroom

It’s fun and there’s snazzy music in the background.

Museums –

They’re not just a storehouse for overpriced paintings and marble statues of naked people you know

Like there’s a

Museum of Hoaxes

( be advised they take a lot of traffic on April Fools Day )

My favorite page was the Hoax Photo Test

Before Nintendo started putting arcades into little over priced plastic boxes there were places like Aracades and they had things that you can find at

Melvin Wright’s World of Slot Machines

and then there’s the

MuseumLink’s Museum of Museums

 Museum of Museums will eventually contain links to every museum on the planet, from the world’s largest to the most obscure (assuming they have a website). See the very beginning of this effort at U.S. Museums by State or the newly started Canadian Museums.

I say we hold them to it.

While we’re WAITING for them to get set up we can check it out ‘as is’… I suppose…

Now enjoy your toys and have a great weekend.

The Cookie Made Me Do It

plate of Oreos

If I tried to use this as an excuse I’d get  the ticket  AND a Court Ordered Mental Health evaluation

 By Associated Press

SALISBURY, Conn. (AP) – Police say a man’s excuse for speeding through a small Connecticut town takes the cake – or, at least, the cookie.A state trooper who stopped the 1993 BMW last fall says its driver, 28-year-old Justin Vonkummer of Millerton, N.Y., blamed his driving problems on an errant Oreo.

Vonkummer told the trooper that an Oreo had just slipped from his fingers as he dunked it in a cup of milk, and that he was trying to fish it out when he lost control of his car.

Prosecutors learned in court this week that Vonkummer had been charged with speeding and driving under a suspended license – not driving under the influence, as a clerk had mistakenly noted in the court records.

Vonkummer’s attorney declined to comment. The case is pending.

God Chat from The Bones

Hi God and Happy Easter….being it’s Jesus big day and all I thought I’d keep this chat in keeping with the day so here we go.

Dear God:

Do you know PEEPS has it’s own site?

and that they no longer just do Easter Candy? They have totally expanded and I’m impressed….those Christmas Tree Peeps are quite the treat.

And do you know there’s a remake of Jaws and Star Wars…with an  all PEEPS cast?

Plus God there’s even a group that does PEEPS research? They study the Basic Science of Peeps and Peeps Health HERE

Now instead of cards here are some  PEEPS pictures…they sort of celebrate your divine inspiration …like stained glass windows in church but you know…funnier.

Oh God up there in the Heavens I know how you feel about this cloning thing….so if I don’t get into cloning will you send one of the Plagues to get the person who made this….

Make your own PEEPS…Heretics…they’re truly a pain aren’t they?

Yeah, I thought you’d agree with me on that.

Well God, it’s been a good Chat.

It’s supposed to be a nice day and I’m super sorry you have to spend the entire thing  in church.

Ha.

Later Gator

and

AHHHPEEEEPPPP.

That BITES!
