That's a typical piece of relatively unimportant information that would be all over the news. Since I've never heard about it, I don't buy it either.

CRAP

Crap because of What Green said. 

If not all over the news then an email forwarded by my mother's cousin.   Wait, if it were true then my mother's cousin wouldn't have forwarded it.

Well, our panel of experts was not fooled, and unixTechie is still not housebroken.

CRAP.  Bill's only connection to Tahiti is that he sometimes docks his $250 million, 413-foot-long boat, The Octopus, with a crew of 60, in Tahiti.

The Octopus?  Orly?


Heh, some U.S. pop culture/politics for today, which somehow seems appropriate for Johnny Slick's birthday.

Tuesday, May 1:  George H.W. Bush once had a cameo on "Saturday Night Live" in which he critiqued Dana Carvey's impression of him.  Fact or Crap?

I almost want to refuse to answer since the video will not be allowed to play in my country. :(

Fact
Nobody these days holds the written word in such high esteem as police states do.  What statistic allows one to identify the Nations where Literature enjoys true consideration better than the sums appropriated for controlling and suppressing it.

Fact.

The previous FoC was double crap because Paul Allen owns the Octopus, not Bill Gates.
