I never believed those "man on the street" things until now?

This site is just the world in miniature. Get out and mix with new people, and you learn all sorts of interesting things. Here are some actual "facts" I have learned from conversations after meeting new people, and of which I was not previously aware:

1. Israel is a nice resort in the Carribbean, but it's kind of dangerous to go there, because there are a lot of pickpockets, and you might lose your wallet.

2. You absolutely cannot get pregnant if you stand up within 10 minutes of having sex and do some jumping jacks. Underwear is optional.

3. Russian grandmas wear headscarves because complete baldness in elderly women has reached epidemic proportions in Russia.

4. Priests (I didn't get clarification on which faith, so I guess it's all of them) wear nothing under their cassocks. They wear socks and shoes just to fool everyone.

5. It's actually very nutritious for a pet to eat its own feces because they get more nutrients out of it than out of regular pet food.

6. If you are ever attacked by a grizzly bear, you will be safe if you simply turn to it, look it right in the eye, and say, "NO!" loudly and clearly.

7. We have already elected an African American woman to high office, because Condi Rice is the VP of the United States, plus, she will be re-elected, only then she will be president, because in the US political system, you move up one step on each election.

8. Men can breastfeed their children if they want to; they just need to start using a breast pump around the time their wife gets pregnant, as it will take a little longer for their milk to come in.

9. Queen Elizabeth II of England is also the president of England, and she can have anyone hanged for anything if she feels like it, even if it's just because she doesn't like their shoes.

10. All tattoo artists are agents of Satan, and anyone who has a tattoo will find, if they look closely enough with a magnifying glass, that they have been marked with 666 and "converted" to demons against their will. Since they are already marked and recorded in Satan's log book, even having the tattoo removed will not remedy the situation.

These are actual "facts" that others have kindly shared with me in various social settings. They make "the man on the street" look pretty normal, don't they?
