Al-Hakim bi-Amr Allah (36), sixth Fatimid caliph and 16th Ismaili imam, rode his donkey to the Muqattam hills outside Cairo for one of his regular nocturnal meditation outings and failed to return. A search found only the donkey and his bloodstained garments.

The donkey done it  :orly:

"Baskin Robbins once made ketchup ice cream. This was the only vegetable flavored ice cream produced. " :P

"Elvis Presley made only one television commercial - an ad for "Southern Maid Doughnuts" that ran in 1954."

My back X-rays from 2 years ago show "scoliosis and mild spurring." (The scoliosis was already known about, wasn't severe enough to need treatment.)  :thumbup:

The transmissions on the early Soviet T-34 tanks were so bad, that they went to the battlefield with a spare transmission straped to the back of their tanks!!

Robert Wadlow was .9 of an inch short of 9 foot and still growing when he died. He died very young of a toe infection. Too much body for heart to circulate blood in.

I2 today is not i2 of yesteryear. It is a knitting circle. Those that participate be they nice or asshats know their place and the price to be there. Odeon is the overlord

.Benevolent if you toe the line.

Think it is I2 of old? Even Odeon is not so delusional as to think otherwise. He may on occasionally pretend otherwise but his base is that knitting circle.

Censoring/banning/restricting/moderating myself, Calanadale & Scrapheap were all not his finest moments.

The scientific name for a small penis, is a micropenis.

True Story;

An adult penis with an erect length of less than 7 cm or just over 2 inches but otherwise formed normally is referred to in a medical context as having the micropenis condition.

For other interesting penis facts (with pics);

Potassium perchlorate is more stable than potassium chlorate, despite having a higher oxidation number. This is due to the fact that the central chlorine is a closed shell atom, "protected" by the four oxygen atoms around it.

Therefore potassium perchlorate might be mixed with chemicals that are usually dangerous to mix with potassium chlorate, especially sulfur and sulfur compunds and ammonium compounds.
