Tegis Posted February 25, 2007 VT Supporter Share Posted February 25, 2007 The microwave was invented after a researcher walked by a radar tube and a chocolate bar melted in his pocket. And my favorite: Your fingernail has the same ingredients as fly poop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazdavies79 Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 Light travels at approx 186,000 miles per second and takes 8 seconds to travel from the sun to the earth. Which is slightly longer than it would take Gabby to get there and back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoony Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 You can not die in Parliament! If you die in Parliament it has to say on your death certificate that you died in the ambulance on the way to hospital. That's true by the way i didnt' just make it up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anthony Posted February 26, 2007 VT Supporter Share Posted February 26, 2007 The shortest war in history was between Zanzibar and Great Britain in 1896. Zanzibar surrendered after 38 minutes. Hmm. Taking its inspiration from the UK, Zanzibar is a shithole. (Really, it is) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOF Posted March 22, 2007 Moderator Share Posted March 22, 2007 Bump. Did you know that the Full Members Cup (aka Simod Cup aka Zenith Data Systems Cup) was thought up purely as a replacement for European Competition while English clubs were banned from Europe after the Heysel disaster. It only ran from 1985 to 1992. Something I learned only today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paddy Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 Don't know if anyone ever listens to the World Football Phone-in on 5 live on Friday night but last night they mentioned how Carlos Valderama had a son called Kevin. I wonder how many Colombian Kevins there are, I'm thinking not many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Rev Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 True of almost any location. You ain't dead til a doctor says so. When i first started working on the railway, i was at Nuneaton station. I think i had been there for six weeks when some fella jumped in front of a Manchester - London express. The train would have weighed about 450 tons. It was doing 100mph. The bloke was decapitated, and the parts of his body that werent scattered around the station were found strewn along the track at various distances of up to half a mile away. He wasnt actually dead until the coroner said he was about an hour later! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
