Pointless Fact

mice can fit in a hole the size of a standard Bic pen

This is very true, ask any Enviroment Health Officer what the pencil test is. If you can fit a pencil / pen in a gap then a mouse can get through the same hole.

I didn't know you were a bus spotter. Do you get the drivers autographs?

No I was bored at work last week and so read the bus times booklet that was lying around. Quite a interesting read it was

2. Alfred Hitchcock didn't have a belly button.

Thats just biologically impossible. Everyone has to have one, even if its a small "neat" one. It MUST be there somewhere.

9. The average person over 50 will have spent 5 years waiting in lines.

No way. Thats 10% of your life, or 2.4 hours a day, every day. Even if we made the Playoff Final every year, this still wouldn't equate to 10% of your life spent in queues (even though it might feel like it).

Highly dubious Lush...makes me doubt the others.

I think you'll find the "pencil test" is conducted by women to see how droopy their tits are. If they can "hold" a pencil under their tit, then sadly, they're going south.

Have to disagree, surely in the history of MAN (ok ok Human Being for the PC Brigade) there must be evidence of deformed tube (forget the name) that when healed on the body it "covers up" instead of the usual insert/outsert (really having problems with words today).

Well I'm sure there are various mutations which can occur (just look around Selhurst on a Saturday afternoon). But a foetus has to be fed via an umbilicus in order to grow. That then has to be removed, and that will always, always leave a scar. It cannot heal completely up, thats just an impossibilty.

I'm sorry, but I do not accept that it is possible for a human being not to have a belly button.

oh yeah I'm with you on that, I was just seeing if the possiblity of such a disformation of the skin overlapping itself would provide an example of "no belly button" in the minor form!

Ahh, so you mean like an unsightly flap of skin hanging over the belly button. Maybe thats possible.

But to say that Alfred Hitchcock has NO belly button...I would need some extensive photographic evidence along with a detailed surgical report from a genius before I believed it.

Either that or Lord B would have to tell me its true. Only then would I believe.

Found THIS Easy:

According to KidsHealth, which claims to be “the largest and most visited site on the Web providing doctor-approved health information about children,” a belly button (or navel) is one of the very few features on the body that every single person in the world has.
However, there may be one eyewitness description of Sir Alfred's tummy, missing its belly button due to surgery. The quote is from the actress Karen Black, whom Hitch directed in his final film, Family Plot in 1976. It is said to have appeared in the liberal monthly humor review, The Funny Times. In a story by humorist Jon Winokur, Black says Hitchcock “pulled up his shirt to show me his belly button – which he didn't have. He'd had an operation and when they sewed him up, they took it away. His belly button was gone!”



Surgery being the key word there me thinks

Surely thats got to be crap?

Well, thats settled that then, good work Crabbers. We were BOTH right. How bizarre to have your belly button surgically removed - what would happen to all that fluff ?

 

[Marc]

imagine picking THAT out in public
