Default Mental Floss



For those of you who don't know, I'm putting a new fact in every week from this book till I run out of them or chose to stop putting them in. This is where the old one's will go to:

1. (6/11/06 - 6/17/06)

Touch of Evil - Church of Satan founder Anton LaVey claims to have been born with a vestigial tail that was surgically removed when he was an adolescent.

2. (6/18/06 - 6/24/06)

Touch of Evil - A 1631 printing of the King James version of the Bible was missing a rather important word. It became known as the Wicked Bible for leaving out "not" out of Exodus 20:14, which as a result read "Thou shalt commit adultery."

3. (6/25/06 - 7/1/06)

Touch of Evil - According to a medical study published by the University Hospital of Johann Wolfgang Goethe University in Germany: "Over a period of 21 years (1972-1992), roughly 21,000 forensic autopsies revealed 39 cases (0.19%) of natural deaths occurring during sexual activity....In most cases sudden death occurred during the sexual act with a prostitute."

4. (7/2/06 - 7/9/06)

Touch of Evil - Less than three years after appearing on the "state quarters" series, the New Hampshire natural rock formation known as the "Old Man of the Mountain" crumbled. Of course, the same force that originally crafted the site was to blame for its collapse: Mother Nature.

I love Mental_floss, it's the only magazine I subscribe to. I haven't gotten Forbidden Knowledge yet, but I want it. I devoured Condensed Knowledge(pun definitely intended)

lol, but honestly, this book reveals a lot of funny things like that Beethoven probably didn't chop off his ear and give it to a brothel, but that he gave it to some guy who said his music sucked

Congradulations, you're chilling at the beach...In front of a computer. That defeats the purpose of your arguments.
