Notions of a Texas Ranch Girl

Aug. 22, 2006

Truth or fiction

Ever get one of those emails that warn you about parasites in bras, spiders under the Olive Garden toilet seat, or pet-killing swiffer WetJets????

 

Truth or Fiction to the rescue.   I first learned about this site when I emailed every woman I knew about toxic tampons, then had to (with tail between legs) email back every woman I knew that it was a hoax.

 

It is a great site for determining which emails are true and which are just plain made up.  But sometimes I visit the site just for a laugh (mouse sets house on fire as revenge, most embarrassing date, cow tipping - although I knew several gullible girls in college who were ready and willing to go cow tipping).   And sometimes they are funny and true:  soldier unhappy about shaking hands with Hilary!

 

Some stories are inspiring and true:  whale thanks rescuers, prayer in Kansas legislature, and forest fire picture:

 

 

While others are inspiring - for a hoax - Bill Gates's 11 rules of life.

 

And if you have ever seen the movie Napolean Dynamite, you have to check out the story of the Liger!
