I am a big Snopes fan, but who are they really? We pretty much take their word as gold, but who says they are not pulling one on everyone? Just a thought.

Snopes = Hoss. I own Snopes.

"He was glued to his computer 24/7," she said tearfully. "He was so afraid he was going to miss an opportunity to contribute a comment or start a discussion, that he just stopped eating."

I was right there with him up until the "stopped eating" part. Eating is never something I've had a problem finding time to do.

Sorry Shovelhead. Didn't mean to steal your thunder. And thanks for bestowing me with the hallowed 'Snope'r 'o the day title

Ford = Cummins. Ford owns Cummins. Don't act like you didn't know.

That is the only advantage to having a dial-up connection ... plenty of time to empty the fridge before the next page pops up on the screen .
