    did you know that linclon and kennedy had the same amount of letters in their second names.
    they both had the same golf handicap.
    there is a $1 bill dated the day kennedy was shot and is nicknamed
    , "the kennedy assasination bill", it ccontains all the details of where and when he was to be killed,(coincidence,,,,,i think not!)

    did you also know that it is pure unadulterated speculation that it took da vinci 10 yyears to paint her smile......he could have easily painted it in a day!!!!!
    now one knows for sure!!!!!!!!!

    Hitler did not only have one testicle, that's a longstanding myth. You can add that to the supposed vegetarianism (yes, he stopped eating meat and drinking in 1942 because he was ultra paranoid, but that's hardly the same thing), and that he was 1/8, 1/16, or 1/64 Jewish (depending on which sources you read).

    Dunno about Napoleon tho smile.gif
