I believe this is true. I am convinced our President George W. is in a perpetual sneeze and therefore lacking brain function.

Who voted for him? This is like like everyone denying that they ever went to a Michael Jackson concert.

Of course, I'm not accusing YOU of having voted for him; I don't know anything about you. But SOMEONE must have.

Claim: Coca-Cola was originally green.

Status: False.

Origins: Though this tidbit of knowledge has been widely distributed as part of an Internet "Did You Know?" list, at no time in Coca-Cola's history has that beverage been green. The original formula called for caramel to give Coca-Cola its rich brown color, and although the recipe has undergone some changes through the years, none of them affected the ultimate color of the product.

(Brown also hides impurities in any given batch, something the backroom chemist who invented Coca-Cola in 1886 kept well in mind as he proceeded with his formulation. These days syrup producers and bottlers have no impurities to hide, but back in the "three copper kettles in somebody's basement" days, covering up what might have inadvertently dropped into the mix was a concern, and brown hid indiscretions remarkably well.)

Coke has at times been bottled in green glass bottles, which perhaps explains the popularity of this particular rumor.

Someone or something. At least we know whom the machines voted for.

I did. Given the same options I would again. That said, for me he ranks only a step or two above Jimmy Carter as the worst president of all time.

Here's hoping that we have other options in 2008.

I love you guys! Who else would enter into an earnest discussion about whether or not simultaneous sneezing, burping, and farting can kill? And then talking about Pres. W right after? The lil twit is finally being fit into a proper context.

Whoa!! I just sneezed and farted....that was too close for comfort.

-grins- Same here. I'm a smidge too young for Michael Jackson concerts (oh god... please no jokes). And there's a snowball's chance in hell that I'd ever vote for He Who Must Choke On A Pretzel.
