March 25, 2009 9:53 pm at 9:53 pm #926409aussieboyParticipantkapusta: goole it i think there are much more words 🙂
March 25, 2009 10:11 pm at 10:11 pm #926410kapustaParticipantmoish now I want another joke, to make up for it 🙂
aussie I really dont know, these are the ones that go around and around in forwards so this is what I know, I’ll give you the honor of googling it, no time now 🙂
March 26, 2009 2:20 am at 2:20 am #926411squeakParticipant3 US Presidents were also Generals.

March 26, 2009 7:48 am at 7:48 am #926414kapustaParticipantI think this is also part of “the list” (where my other two came from)… peanuts are one of the ingredients in dynamite 🙂

March 26, 2009 8:02 am at 8:02 am #926416moish01Membersqueak, washngton, jackson, and grant. there aren’t more?
March 26, 2009 4:36 pm at 4:36 pm #926417squeakParticipantnot jackson – but eisenhower. jackson was made a major general (2 star), not a general
March 26, 2009 4:43 pm at 4:43 pm #926418anonymisssParticipantsqueak, why’d you say the answer? I knew that!

March 26, 2009 5:35 pm at 5:35 pm #926421squeakParticipantsorry, anonymisss. I was correcting moish, who listed 4 when there are only 3.
moish’s list was
squeak, washngton, jackson, and grant.
The first one was obviously wrong, the third was wrong but not as obvious.
How does everyone know he was stuck in the bathtub? Any secret service people here?
March 26, 2009 6:03 pm at 6:03 pm #926422anonymisssParticipantnice, 39!
Which president was taught to read and write by his wife?

anonymisss: Interesting and Uncommon Facts not Random Questions 🙂
My guess is tyler?
March 26, 2009 8:07 pm at 8:07 pm #926424yossieaParticipantSqueak, a Major General is still a General, it is the lowest level of Generals.
(check Wikipedia)
Interestingly enough, a Lieutenant General outranks a Major General, even though a Major outranks a Lieutenant.
March 26, 2009 8:41 pm at 8:41 pm #926426moish01Membersqueak, way too corny
March 26, 2009 8:49 pm at 8:49 pm #926427anonymisssParticipantok, aussie, so if I would say (now, I know you will tell me that I’m asking a question now and not stating a fact, sorry,) “President Taft got stuck in the bathtub.” Would that be acceptable for this thread?
~a~
March 26, 2009 9:00 pm at 9:00 pm #926428aussieboyParticipantanonymisss: Yes. IM just embaressed tha i dont know the answers 🙂 I was kidding you can ask questions i dont care.
March 26, 2009 9:16 pm at 9:16 pm #926430anonymisssParticipantOh, I’m sorry, aussieboy. I’ll try to just post facts in the future. (I let you cheat, though. You can google.)

March 26, 2009 9:32 pm at 9:32 pm #926431squeakParticipantThe longest English word that does not repeat any letters is 17 letters long.
That would make a great hangman word, if you wanted to let just about every guess be correct. Unfortunately, I’m not that nice and I haven’t ever visited the hangman thread.

March 27, 2009 4:46 pm at 4:46 pm #926434squeakParticipantPepsi is commonly used by wooden boat owners to clean mold from decks. They leave it on for about thirty seconds, then it must be rinsed off as not to cause erosion.
Just another reason to drink Coke….
March 29, 2009 9:21 pm at 9:21 pm #926437moish01Membersqueak, coke isn’t any better? you know that science experiment that they do in like sixth or seventh grade? take a tooth and put it in coke for a little while. it gets holes in it – it’s disgusting.
How cool: Did you know that: 111,111,111 x 111,111,111 = 12,345,678,987,654,321?
March 29, 2009 11:13 pm at 11:13 pm #926439kapustaParticipantSheep snore. (I never checked it out though)

March 30, 2009 2:06 am at 2:06 am #926440moish01Memberhey today is Walt Frazier birthday! March 29, 1945.
March 30, 2009 3:53 am at 3:53 am #926441anonymisssParticipantmoish, cool! I had to verify it, though. I don’t accept things like that without investigating.

March 30, 2009 10:35 pm at 10:35 pm #926446an open bookParticipantinteresting how “right-wing” people seem to put more emphasis on the “right side of the luchos” – ben adam lamakom, & people who are more to the “left” seem to focus more on the “left side” & ben adam lachaveiro.
March 30, 2009 11:55 pm at 11:55 pm #926447moish01Memberhey i’m not “left-wing!”
March 31, 2009 12:20 am at 12:20 am #926448anonymisssParticipantAOB, where’d you pick that one up from? It’s an interesting point, though.
~a~
March 31, 2009 1:14 am at 1:14 am #926449aussieboyParticipantIsnt it the “right-wingers” who want the people to have more power and the “left-wingers” who want the government to have more power?
Maybe I am just misunderstanding what was said.
March 31, 2009 1:20 am at 1:20 am #926450an open bookParticipantmoish01: …trying to figure out what to say to that…
i’m sure there’s a fuzzy middle ground though, i see it more as a spectrum than just “2 categories”
anonymisss: i don’t remember if i heard it from somewhere or came up with it myself (i didn’t just think of it now though).
March 31, 2009 1:24 am at 1:24 am #926451an open bookParticipantaussie: are you talking about conservative vs. liberal?? i think that’s true, now that you mention it, but i was referring to jews…
March 31, 2009 4:46 am at 4:46 am #926452aussieboyParticipantAOB: Yes. Thats usally what you are reffering to when you speak about right-wingers and left-wingers.
March 31, 2009 4:54 am at 4:54 am #926453aussieboyParticipantIf you mix amonia and bleach the fumes could kill you.
March 31, 2009 7:30 am at 7:30 am #926455JaxMemberaussie: i’ll keep that in mind the next time, i think of trying that!
March 31, 2009 7:33 am at 7:33 am #926456JaxMemberis it myth or reality: that if you eat mint mentos & coke together, your stomach can implode?
March 31, 2009 7:41 am at 7:41 am #926457aussieboyParticipantmoish01: What?
March 31, 2009 7:42 am at 7:42 am #926458JaxMemberlightning never strikes in the same place twice!
March 31, 2009 8:04 am at 8:04 am #926459JaxMemberaussie: i guess you don’t read books!(then again i should not be talking!)
