in the spirit of fun... lets start an old wives tale type thing.

We can all come up with one, and then vote on the best one, and the best one, we all agree to somehow pass the tale on to as many people as we can, and see if it comes back to you.

I need to get a good definition of old wives tale first. I would hate to look stupider.

Did you know that if an email has any Arabic in it, no SPAM filters on the planet will tag it as SPAM?
17 Days after September 11 attacks an FBI agent was going through his automatically filtered SPAM email and discovered a confession from one of the hijackers asking for help to get out of doing the attacks. Thats why ever since this day, no email with any Arabic in it at all will ever be marked as SPAM again.

something like that....
sounds like it could be possible... sounds like it might work... but is not based on any real facts.

Spam is made from meat that no normal person would ever buy or eat.

see more like. The FDA tested SPAM and 3 out of every 100 cans contains more then 7% rat meat. But since it averages out it is below the acceptable limit of 1% per can on average.

it only works if you say why we will have

Like..hmm... during that tour of the old Winnipeg waste disposal locations late last year, Doer and Katz both came into contact with some PCBs a huge amount of them. They just found out they have about 6 months to live and are trying to decide if they want to stay in office or spend more time with thier families.

see it does not matter that they did tour a waste disposal location or that PCBs would not act like that on them or that presumably everyone that was with them would be dieing too... you just got to throw the details in that makes it sound believable

The housewives association of the United States of Texicana is back in the news once again...
It seems their quest to retrieve Saturn's rings has turned out to be a hoax. The space trip from 2043 actually only made it just passed Mars, one month into the journey, after which, they were forced back due to a waste disposal backup.
They did state, however, that they will try once again to bring back those beautiful rings that surround Saturn, sometime before the year 2050, and that the occupants will all be over the age of 50.
(It's a tale, ladies, no harm done...).

Latest news...the Montreal Alouettes have signed quarterback Brett Favre to come up from New York. His new contract guarantees them a win in the Grey Cup next year, as Favre stated "Playing in the CFL will be like playing pee-wee league again."
