10 In Shakespeare's time, mattresses were secured on bed frames by ropes. When you pulled on the ropes the mattress tightened, making the bed firmer to sleep on. Hence the phrase 'goodnight, sleep tight'.

11. It was the accepted practice in Babylon 4,000 years ago that for a month after the wedding, the bride's father would supply his son-in-law with all the mead he could drink. Mead is a honey beer and because their calendar was lunar based, this period was called the honey month or what we know today as the honeymoon.

12. In ancient England a person could not have sex unless you had consent of the King (unless you were in the Royal Family). When anyone wanted to have a baby, they got consent of the King who gave them a placard that they hung on their door while they were having sex. The placard had F**K (Fornication Under Consent of the King) on it.
Now you know where that word came from.

13. Last but not least: In Scotland, a new game was invented. It was entitled Gentlemen Only, Ladies Forbidden and thus the word GOLF entered into the English language

Canadian Snipers in Afghanistan Jul 20, 07, 11:51 a.m.

http://strangers.tv/vid/Making_a…

They never saw it coming

Canadian Sniper wiping out Talaban Snipers. In Afghanistan. These
video shots are not made through the shooter's telescopic sight. They are
made looking through the spotter's scope. The spotter lies right next to the
sniper and helps the sniper to find and home in on the target.

The sniper is using a 50 calibre rifle. A 50 cal. round is about 7-8 inches long and the casing is about an inch in diameter. The bullet itself is one-half inch in diameter and roughly one and one-half inches long.

Pay close attention to the beginning of the video. A Taliban is laying on top of the peak in front of you... when you hear the shot fired....watch what happens. The sniper is also about a half mile away... or more. A
Canadian sniper in Afghanistan has been confirmed as hitting an enemy soldier at a range of 2,310 meters (7565 ft/1.43 miles), the longest recorded and confirmed sniper shot in history. The previous record of 2,250 meters (7369 ft/1.4 miles) was set by US Marine sniper Carlos Hathcock in Vietnam in 1967. The Canadian sniper was at an altitude of 8,500 feet and the target, across a valley, was at 9,000 feet. Canadian sniper units often operated in support of US infantry units, which were grateful for their help. The record lasted only one day, until a second Canadian sniper hit an enemy soldier at 2,400 meters (7860 feet/1.48 miles). The Canadian snipers fire special 50-calibre McMillan tactical rifles, which are bolt-action weapons with five-round magazines. The Canadian snipers were the only Canadian troops operating without helmets or flak jackets as they had too much other equipment to carry. Each three-man team has one sniper rifle, three standard rifles Canadian (C7s), one of them with a 203mm grenade launcher.

Busboys Unite! Apr 7, 05, 10:58 a.m.

sorry had to, I saw a theme forming in the McJobs thread

so its not a complete waste of a thread post a busboy story

there was the homeless dude that would always dig through our trash bin that i made a deal with

i told him to give me all the money he earned spanging everyday and i would leave a trash bag full of edible food out for him

all i ever left were table scraps that wouldve ended up in the garbge disposal that i scrapped off of plates

when my grandfather inquired what i was doing i told him, all he could do was laugh

it was fair, i think

My Parents Joined A Cult May 15, 06, 1:37 p.m.

Okay, I'm not sure if that's entirely accurate, but they sure are acting like it.

First off let me set the stage.

I'm probably alot like alot of you. Having tried my share of substances and enjoyed others to a more or lesser degree.

I have a responsible family that can afford and knows how to have a good time and within the last 2 months I have "hung out with my parents"

Fast forward to yesterday.

My brother and I go to visit our grandmother and mother, stopping by mom's first.

From the moment we walk in, it feels wierd.

My brother and I say hello and Happy Mother's Day and present our "They were out of Cards" Cake

We get laughs and thier attention averts to the TV which strangely enough is on the inspirational channel INSP.

They begin telling us about their views on the new testament and about how they have ordered bibles for their room and table.

They then suggest we should also look into such practices.

My brother and I stare at each other as if we have seen ghosts mouthing the words "What the Fuck" to one another simultaneously.

We then head to the kitchen wispering disbelief as we cut a few slices of cake for everyone.

While finishing our cake we are informed that they have been "shopping around" by attending a few local churches.

I let my brother know it's time to leave.

Again, they suggest we should look into the book for guidance.

I walk out the door to visit my neighbor who has known me since I was 2 so she's like an adopted Grandma.

I had to say Happy Mother's Day to her as well.

I tell her about the "Revelation" next door and she informs me their cars don't move on Sundays and they must only go to church while they're at work and has a good laugh with me over the whole idea.

I leave still not knowing what is going on at my parent's house or saying goodbye to them for that matter.

So I am confronted with the dilemma of Insanity or Christianity on behalf of my parental units.

At nearly 29 years of age this is the first time they have ever given religion such a strangely serious attention or the first time they have ever lied to thier kids to such a point they were nearly frightened.

Either they believe in god or have lost it.

I can't decide which is worse.

Qookbook Jan 25, 10, 7:42 p.m.

http://qookbook.info/

We are seeking at least 18 (hopefully around 40 or more) entries from around the globe to join in creating a community "Qookbook".

We hope to cover all facets of eating throughout any particular day. We understand that most recipes are derived from others while some are handed down throughout the family's history. We are asking that no direct recipes be copied from an existing cookbook, and we are also not asking that you divulge grandma's secret ingredient. ;)

Our proposal is that you be able to provide one photo of print quality (7"x7"), list of ingredients, dish name, preparation instructions, approximately how long it takes to prep & cook, as well as how many it will serve. Upon doing so, we will compile the book via region, meal type, or whatever the final chosen submissions will best lend themselves to.

Printing will be done through blurb and cost approx $20 depending on paper stock and number of final contributors added to the book. Pricing http://www.blurb.com/create/book…

So if you enjoy cooking & photography, we urge you to sign up. Hopefully, together we can collect a few new meals to taste.

Also, you can email to have the above information automatically sent to you.
