aussie, kennedy and lincoln weren’t exactly living in the same century – how the heck could they have been friends??
yeah it was on july 4th.
April 5, 2009 10:26 am at 10:26 am #926519aussieboyParticipantmoish: Oh yeh. Good point.

right = conservative & left = radical (liberal) because that’s what side of the room they sat in during the legislative assembly of the french revolution.
April 6, 2009 8:52 am at 8:52 am #926524h2MemberJax- on the last page you wrote about a myth of mentos and coke, why don’t you try it? Take a new bottle of coke. Within the first 10 seconds after you open it drop in mento and see what happens. Be sure you do it in a place where yoy don’t mind a mess! Have fun!
April 6, 2009 1:20 pm at 1:20 pm #926525mepalMemberh2: if you drink coke and then eat mentos, would the same thing happen in your stomache?
April 7, 2009 2:56 am at 2:56 am #926526JaxMemberh2: sure i’m running to try that! you think it’ll work with the pesach coke?
April 7, 2009 3:03 am at 3:03 am #926527moish01Memberjax, i wouldn’t drink it if i were you. first try it in a cup or something. and yeah it should work with pesach coke just the same.
April 7, 2009 3:11 am at 3:11 am #926528JaxMembermoish: sarcasim, and i hate coke so i won’t be trying it anytime soon!

April 7, 2009 8:37 am at 8:37 am #926533aussieboyParticipantMost average adult african elephants weigh less than the tounge of a blue whale.
April 7, 2009 4:55 pm at 4:55 pm #926535squeakParticipant“If you did your eyes would fly out of their sockets” – That my friend, is a myth. I suppose that if someone hits you on the back while you are cross-eyed you will stay crossed-eyed forever as well?
April 7, 2009 6:15 pm at 6:15 pm #926538April 7, 2009 6:39 pm at 6:39 pm #926539aussieboyParticipantsqueak: Actually its not a myth (at least I dont think it is). There is a reason your eyes automatically close when you sneeze.
April 7, 2009 6:43 pm at 6:43 pm #926540areivimzehlazehParticipantUncommon knowledge: chewing gum slows the metabolism because the stomach thinks you are eating (glands create digestive juices when chewing) but nothing is being swallowed or digested. So the muscles are working to digest, but nothing’s there. I guess we’re tiring out the system? Then when we really eat, the muscles need to work extra hard to get it digested
April 7, 2009 10:16 pm at 10:16 pm #926541anonymisssParticipantOh, areivim, and I thought that the body would just start burning other calories from chewing gum. How disapointing.

April 13, 2009 3:20 pm at 3:20 pm #926542mepalMemberAreivim: did you check that one up? Cuz its something I really hope is false…
April 13, 2009 5:25 pm at 5:25 pm #926543areivimzehlazehParticipantno- didn’t check it up. But if you think about it, it makes sense. Perhaps gum chewing helps you lose weight short term, but is very bad in the long run
April 22, 2009 4:51 am at 4:51 am #926545April 24, 2009 1:27 am at 1:27 am #926548moish01Memberwow here’s one that i just came across…
anyone know who/what/where Ittoqqortoormiit is?
not saying what it is, but i’ll give you a hint:
it’s a Danish word.
April 24, 2009 1:37 am at 1:37 am #926549JaxMembermoish: i donno, but won’t google it! just was thinking what an awesome hangman word that’ll make!
April 24, 2009 1:39 am at 1:39 am #926550an open bookParticipantdid you want to know if anyone knew offhand, or are you telling us to google?
April 24, 2009 1:48 am at 1:48 am #926551April 24, 2009 2:04 am at 2:04 am #926552moish01Memberjax and kapusta, i’m laughing so hard from you guys. (can i make a shidduch??)
anyway, it’s the name of a town in Greenland. i was just reading an article on greenland and i saw it and thought it was cool. (thank god i’m not talking to you in person because i have NO idea how to pronounce that…)
April 24, 2009 2:19 am at 2:19 am #926553moish01Memberby the way that’s not a good hangman word. all double letters and the only one that’s not “basic” is the “q”
April 24, 2009 2:19 am at 2:19 am #926554JaxMembermoish: a bird?!
April 24, 2009 2:21 am at 2:21 am #926555JaxMembermoish: now i’m laughing so hard & turning purple from you!
but the word would look so wild, on the board when we guess!

moish: a bird?! try a plane…if that doesn’t work shoot ( 😉 ) for superman…
moish, did you hear about the lake that was misspelled (like 145 letters?) google it. and btw, what was so funny about that?
April 24, 2009 2:40 am at 2:40 am #926557moish01Memberi dunno, kapusta. just the way you both automatically assumed “hangman!”
WOOOOOOOOAAAAAHH! Lake Chargoggagoggmanchauggagoggchaubunagungamaugg????? i can’t believe it’s actually in a civilized country called the US of A!
(and by the way, it’s 45 letters – not 145)
now JAX: WHAT IS SO FUNNY??
April 24, 2009 2:46 am at 2:46 am #926558kapustaParticipantglad I made you laugh then. and I heard it as 145 letters, now that I see it, it looks more like 45 than 145.
WOOOOOOOOAAAAAHH! buddy, as girly as you can get…
April 24, 2009 2:50 am at 2:50 am #926559an open bookParticipantwasn’t sure what you guys were laughing about before, but this thread is getting funnier by the post 🙂
April 24, 2009 2:51 am at 2:51 am #926560moish01Memberhaha really? that’s funny – if you notice i don’t make a habit of OVERREACTING but i’m in a very weird mood. not sure why. (i feel like i have a part of jax in me ;))
April 24, 2009 4:40 am at 4:40 am #926564JaxMembermoish: (i feel like i have a part of jax in me ;))
ok now i’m rolling! what exactly does that mean? like now your drunk like me?
April 24, 2009 6:42 am at 6:42 am #926565kapustaParticipantrandom fact that most people don’t know apparently, alot is actually correctly spelled a lot, like a little, a lot.
April 24, 2009 5:28 pm at 5:28 pm #926566areivimzehlazehParticipantmoish I’ve never seen/heard you so hyper 😉 Enjoy the giddiness while it lasts 🙂
April 24, 2009 5:47 pm at 5:47 pm #926567April 24, 2009 5:48 pm at 5:48 pm #926568moish01Memberoh it’s over. i slept it off 😉
April 24, 2009 5:57 pm at 5:57 pm #926569moish01Memberkapusta, was that a code that was supposed to be difficult to crack??
April 24, 2009 5:57 pm at 5:57 pm #926570mepalMembergood morning to you, moish!
April 24, 2009 6:10 pm at 6:10 pm #926571April 24, 2009 6:12 pm at 6:12 pm #926572moish01Member;0
i would smile but my mouth hurts…
April 24, 2009 6:23 pm at 6:23 pm #926573JaxMembermoish: wow still hurts?
April 24, 2009 6:35 pm at 6:35 pm #926574kapustaParticipantmoish, from the retainer? geez… thats not good, I think I remember hearing a milkshake is good for that sort of things…
April 24, 2009 6:41 pm at 6:41 pm #926575JaxMemberkapusta: and where did you hear that from? moish’s milkshake handbook?
April 24, 2009 6:46 pm at 6:46 pm #926576moish01Memberhaha. i should go make one now. (and now i’m POSITIVE my teeth were shifting…)
April 24, 2009 6:47 pm at 6:47 pm #926577kapustaParticipantJax, didn’t I ever tell you i have my own milkshake handbook (I wouldn’t need to if I would actually get some ice cream, cough, cough) jk, you might notice I wrote a milkshake is good for that sort of thingS. a milkshake is good for anything. (honestly I think I like good old ice cream better.)
