    Drinking milk with fish is poisonous. If one swallows a hair it will wrap around one's heart. I know a lot of women that could debunk that.
    Frogs give warts. Warts give frogs. Frogs are princes. The love of money is the root of all evil, but everyone knows that politics and religion remains the root of all evil.

    That's partly because both politics and religion demand HUGE sums of money, constantly. So they can continue being evil.

    According to Craig Ferguson, there are two things on earth visible from outer space - the Great Wall of China and Kim Kardashian's butt.

    Peter Belt is a hoot.

    www.machinadynamica.com is also something to see.

    There are lots of charlatans who prey upon the ignorant.
