    Dog park nails in cheese

    Lately I have gotten at least 5 emails claiming that some pervert has been giving dogs in dog parks, cheese cubes with nails stuck in them. There is a photo with the email that shows a handful of cheese cubes that has what looks like upholstery tacks in them. Well, it's an urban legend. There...

    Doppelganger

    I'm sure a lot of you know what a doppelganger is. For those of you who don't, a doppelganger is a spirit double of yourself. The legend says, if you meet your doppelganger, you will die soon. It's a German myth and was brought to the US by early German immigrants. Interesting concept though. I...

    Has anyone heard this one?

    A lady was wrapping Christmas presents when she started to have neck pain. She placed an electric massager on her neck and turned it on. When her husband came home, he found her collapsed with the massager not far from her lifeless body. Believe it or not, this one is TRUE...

    Roswell

    So, who thinks that the Roswell, NM crash of the "weather balloon" was as reported by the US government? It always makes me wonder when the "powers that be" came up with two or three different explanations for the crash, what were they trying to hide? What do you think?

    "hoop" snakes

    You have probably heard this one, that there are actually "hoop" snakes that will grab their tails when threatened and roll down a hill like a wagon wheel. Sorry to say, even though it would be entertaining, it's not true. The myth, according to some, may have been due to the behavior of the...

    Weeds

    I just started watching this and it's hilarious. It's rather crass sometimes but it's funny. Just the thought of a soccer mom selling weed is one of the funniest I've ever heard. I'm hooked.

    Graveyards and urban legends

    Have you ever heard of the legend that says that a graveyard on top of a hill has a ghost of a young woman who stops the cars that pass the graveyard, either by making the car fail mechanically or just dying, at the top of the hill. She will get into the car and the car will miraculously restart...

    Mount vesuvius erupts

    It's thought that today, in 79 AD that Mount Vesuvius erupted and buried Pompeii. It's a sad thought to know that so many people died by the super heated air that came from Vesuvius and then were covered in ash. It's amazing what nature can do when it gets angry.

    True, not an urban legend

    Our local newspaper came out with a story not long ago, asking that everyone who uses syringes, not to flush them down the toilet. It seems that one of the sanitation engineers at the local water treatment plant had been stuck with one. So I guess all of the heroin and meth users now can't...

    Egg whites and burns

    There has been reports going around that if you have a burn, you should beat up an egg white and apply it as fast as possible. This is NOT the case at all. I've also heard of using tomato sauce, potato slices, yogurt, cool mud and other things that are also of no use. Egg whites can actually...

    Kachinas

    The Hopi tribe say that the kachinas are the spirits that abide in everything. They were in every plant, animal, insect, reptile, rock and so on and so forth. They made Kachina dolls to teach their children about the various spirits around them. That's where the Kachina dolls started.

    Well, now I've heard everything. There are rumors going around that a Pepsi worker who is HIV + has put some of his blood into the Pepsi that was being bottled. Even if he or she did, HIV will not live long outside of the body so it's a non issue. The things that people will come up with!

    Spider under skin facebook scam

    There is a scam going around Facebook I thought I would warn everyone about. This is a "clickjacking" scam in which, you click the picture and it takes you to a survey. This will then send the video to everyone on your contact list and post on Facebook under your name. There isn't a virus...

    Spontaneous human combustion

    Has anyone ever done much research on spontaneous human combustion? It's a phenomenon which has puzzled scientist and doctors since it has been noticed. People will go to check on these people and there is nothing remaining but the charred remains of a limb or maybe nothing but a pile of ash...

    How do they start?

    I was thinking about urban legends and myths and wondering how all of these get started. Some are so unbelievable that it's hard to believe them unless someone presents irrefutable proof. Others are so real they seem like they could have happened and then turn out to be false. How do you think...

    Has anyone heard the urban legend about the guy who was working for a paving company and he tripped and accidentally got run over by a steam roller? I don't know if it's true or not but he supposedly lived afterward with some minor injuries. Weird huh?

    Have you guys been getting the emails that are saying certain celebrities are dead? I got one that said George Clooney had died from a fall in New Zealand while on a movie set. It even updates the date every day so it looks like a legit story. It's not true of course, and I've gotten other's...
