    I have always wondered in the truth about this great mystery. It would be interesting investigating this mystery, but with even a little truth to it, would you really take the chance?

    Mythological vacation

    I know it doesn't really fall into the mythological vacation per se, but I have been thinking about it since yesterday. I would love to go to Iceland, Norway, etc and learn first hand about Vikings.

    Do you believe in past lives?

    I am on the fence about past lives. However, I also have had a lot of deja vu instances in my life. However, I would love to be conscious of past lives if they really exist. I would love to have lived many times over. I think each era had a beauty to it.

    Have native american legends survived better than others?

    I have always been found of the native american legends. It is a good thing that the internet have allowed for the dissemination of them since before it was mainly passed on orally. It would be terrible if all the culture dies when there are no more people interested in passing the stories on.

    Your life?

    I would have loved to live in the medieval times. The only thing that I would add to the era is more frequent baths. :-) As for the myth, I would have loved to be Aphrodite.

    Spitting on a broom

    I know that in Latin America if a girl gets her feet swept with a broom, the myth says she will not marry. I wonder if the spitting on the broom will reverse said myth.

    May showers

    They always say that April showers bring May flowers. I think April and May have brought too much water as it is. I have also heard that if you wash your face with the first May shower, your skin will get younger. I wonder if there are other Spring myths and urban legends.

    The lost atlantis

    I don't really think it exists. However, it would be so cool, if it really did. I can imagine many great things coming from a culture that hasn't been polluted from all the garbage that has been going on for generations. How do you imagine Atlantis?

    Thirteen?

    Personally, I do not consider any number or day unlucky. I have heard that the reason why the 13 is considered unlucky had to do with the last supper where there were 12 apostles and Jesus. You do the math.

    Does anybody know when did the legend of the Jersey Devil started? I have heard that it is true, but I highly doubt it. Where they going to make a movie about it or did they?

    Class of fairy tales

    I know I sound like a wuss, but even though I like the real ones, they are a little too dark for my taste. I rather give the water down Disney version to my kids. :rolleyes: My

    Urban legends (on syfy)

    I love Sanctuary which is also beside the point for this topic.... LOL ;) I have to admit that I love Urban Legends. I really like trying to figure out which of the four scenarios actually happen and which are just things that people make up and get bigger with time. It is a must see.

    Is astrology also a myth

    I don't personally know about myths surrounding astrology, but I am sure there must be a ton. After all, a lot of people (especially because of their religion), consider astrology against God's teachings. Which I don't understand because weren't the Maggi following a star?

    Microwave

    I was just watching the show Urban Legends, and I was surprised to hear that there was an urban legend about people putting their pets in the microwave. Have you heard of this? Any other urban legends with the microwave in it?
