    Captain Frank and some of the boys were exchanging old war stories. Art Bragg offered one about how his grandfather led a battalion against a German division during World War I. Through brilliant maneuvers he defeated them and captured valuable territory.
    After the battle he was presented with a sword bearing the inscription "To Captain Bragg for Bravery, Daring and Leadership. World War I. From the Men of Battalion 8."
    Captain Frank looked at Art and said, "You really don't expect anyone to believe that yarn, do you?" What's wrong with the story?
    They wouldn't have called it World War I
    Even if they are starving, natives living in the Arctic will never eat a penguin's egg. Why not?
    They'd die of starvation before making it to the Antarctic.

    Why are 2004 One Euro coins worth more than 2005 One Euro Coins? They're not. 2,005 One Euro coins are always worth 1 euro more than 2,004 One Euro coins (you may just have typed this arseways )


    How could you rearrange the letters in the words "new door" to make one word? Note: There is only one correct answer. 'One Word' is an anagram of 'New Door'

    A child is born in Boston, Massachusetts to parents who were both born in Boston, Massachusetts. The child is not a United States citizen. How is this possible?

    The grandparents of the last child are illegal immigrants?




    What is one thing that all wise men, regardless of their religion or politics, agreed is between heaven and earth? the letter a.


    Whoever asked the question about Art Bragg obviously plays Mindtrap. a good game.

    For one second it was 1:23:45 on 6/7/89
    That question was less stupid, though you asked it in a profoundly stupid way.

    Help me, Arthur Murphy, you're my only hope!
