"You wanna know what I think?"

"I think you're some kind of deviated prevert. I think General Ripper found out about your preversion, and that you were organizing some kind of mutiny of preverts. "

:)

4. It's an old myth about the solstice (or is it equinox?)
Edited on Tue Jun-21-05 10:08 AM by Richardo
You're supposed to ba able to balance a raw egg on its end because of the gravitational attraction of the sun is aligned etc.

It doesn't work. Or, put it this way: It works (or doesn't work) equally well on any given day.

6. It is the equinox and it does work if you have a level surface
Most tables and counters are not as level as you think...

8. Ah, I see! Probably the myth is supposed to work on the equinox...
Edited on Tue Jun-21-05 10:13 AM by CaliforniaPeggy
Since there the days and nights are exactly equal in length...Perhaps it might work on the equator?

Anyway, thanks for the info on this particular myth!
