Everything Rock says is funny basically. The way he delivers is like no other entertainer. As for the second 'lesson,' I liked that one. The song was good, the flux capacitor comment was funny (especially to we 80s children who grew up on Back to the Future), and his sexual innuendos are always classic.

Pure coincidence. it aint nothing so good like they went to the toilet or drank water or ate food or slept the same no. of times and at the same times in a day. and well, theres a high probability of losing your children when in whitehouse and the friday thing has a probability greater than 1/7 and to be shot in the head, well most of the people are shot in the head and hey, how many people named Johnson are presently alive???? and the most important thing never happened.... you didnt talk about their birthyears. and its all just years... not even months.

I heard this when I was in Class 4...5 years back..and by the way, history is never interesting however you try to butter it. It has no use in the present. What is gone, is gone & will never return. I wonder why we have HISTORY subject in our school, it's most 3rd class.
Yuck! Thoo

This is the most prolific of incidences, which concurs that history does repeat itself. I have heard this before and it is so true!JB
