No-one knows where the saying's come from, but it's definitely not a storage method for cannonballs.

Snopes Debunks "Brass Monkey" Myth

Well feck me, I always thought it was to do with cannon balls. You learn something everyday. So in reality, it's just a weird saying, someone must have thought it sounded funny and it's stuck. Much like "Christ on a bike"?

Superman is the only superhero to have his alter-ego being a human.

Am I missing something here, surely Spiderman's alter ego is a human?

Kill Bill stylee, Supermans alter ego is Clark Kent. Spiderman is the alter ego of yon peter Parker. Subtle difference.

Superman isn't the only one mind, Thor has an alter ego - a doctor called Donald Blake.

That's me completely outed as a geek. nerd.gif

If you fart consistently for 6 years and 9 months, enough gas is produced to create the energy of an atomic bomb!!!

Each king in a deck of playing cards represents a great king from history; Spades - King David, Clubs - Alexander the Great, Hearts - Charlemagne, and Diamonds - Julius Caesar!!!

Swedish Beastiality Network

Members of the Swedish parliament are pushing to outlaw beastiality following a recent expose by a Stockholm newspaper featuring an animal sex network in Sweden. Beastiality and homosexuality were both decriminalized in Sweden in 1944.

The government in Sweden, one of the most sexually permissive countries, is resisting attempts to have sex with animals banned. The Agriculture Minister asked, "Should a human be allowed to affectionately stroke the teats of a female dog?"ohmy.gifohmy.gif ...unsure.gif

According to the Swedish Animal Welfare Agency, there were 115 cases of bestiality reported between 2000 and 2005. Some projections indicate that as many as 200-300 dogs and catsblink.gifmad.gif are sexually assaulted annually.

A football team once cosidered putting a moat round the pitch and filling it with.........................wait for it....................

crocodiles :o in a bid to stop hooligans

"Is it really true that a Romanian side once built a moat filled with crocodiles to stop the crowd from invading the pitch?" wondered Ben Evans back in the sepia-tinged days of 2006.

Incredibly, Ben, this snappy piece of hooligan deterrence actually was planned. Back in 2003, fourth-division Steaua Nicolae Balcescu found themselves in a quandary: Romanian leagues chiefs were threatening the club with expulsion following a series of pitch invasions and violent outbreaks. What was the club to do? Perimeter fencing? Increased stewarding? Not quite.

Chairman Alexandra Cringus came up with the 'innovative' concept of creating a moat surrounding the pitch, packed with fully-grown crocodiles. "This is not a joke," insisted Cringus. "We can get crocodiles easy enough and feed them on meat from the local abattoir. The ditch is planned to be wide enough that no one could manage to jump over it. Anyone who attempted to do so would have to deal with the crocs. I think that the problem of fans running on to the pitch will be solved once and for all." You don't say.

And what of players tumbling off the field and into the watering hole? Cringus planned to create the moat far enough from the pitch to prevent said calamity, yet not forgetting about the crocs; electric pipes were to be installed in the water to keep it heated during cold weather. The last we heard of the tale was that local authorities were considering the club's proposal.

Did you know that just because "Snopes" website says something is / isn't true, that doesnt mean it is / isn't actually true.

Always make mean laugh the way people slag of others who hold up "wikipedia" as being 100% gospel - which most folk know isn't the case - then do the exact same with "Snopes" themselves
