Odd...I thought Coca-Cola soft drinks was made by accident. It was intended to be a drug for headaches.


It 1st started out as a heavy syrup. They used water to dilute it. But then someone mixed it with carbonated water by mistake. Turned out to be pretty good stuff.


Correct me if I'm wrong.

Evidently, it gets on the money when a bill with cocaine gets run through a counter, so all the bills that go through it after that get cocaine on it as well.

According to this page, ducks are the funniest comedy animals:

Laugh Lab wrote:Many of the jokes submitted contained reference to animals. We found that jokes mentioning ducks were seen as funnier than other jokes. And so it’s official — ducks are the funniest comedy animals. Perhaps it’s because of their beaks, or webbed feet, or odd shape. Regardless, the implication is clear — if you are going to tell a joke involving an animal, make it a duck.

But we already knew that, didn't we?

I wonder which one has more salt? The Black sea or the Dead sea? Or are they both the same the same body of water with different names?

Black Sea is a relatively unsalty sea. It is lies north of Turkey. Dead Sea, AFAIK, is not a sea, but a giant lake or something. It is a bit more to the east within mainland Asia, I think.

You want gross the emporer Caligula just for kicks cut of his servents hands and he made him ware them around his neck dangling and rotting, and he would go up to people at dinner parties lean over them and have the rotting hands dangling in front of his guests. the servent would then ask "can i get you anything. Would you like somemore." the guests would often barf. much to the amusement of Caligula. There that's gross.

I have a bad habit of connecting to completely unrelated sentences by starting the second one off with "Also".

werwolf mentioned in the bible (book of danial)

bloodwolf_345 wrote:According to something I read online(werewolf site) Werewolves were once used to slay the wicked, now they are thought of as the emobodiment of evil

that came from the fact that werewolves were originally "used" by Dhimprs (As their partners) to kill a vampire that had come from a cross road ( if no werewolf was around, they would often use white wolves.)
