I love this kind of stuff lol. I'm always spewing out random facts to my friends.
For example: A person who regularly spouts trivia is called a Spermologist :p

I don't know where you got your "facts" but some of these are extremely false.

2. Alfred Hitchcock didn't have a belly button. Not possible. Where did he come from?
5. When you sneeze, all bodily functions stop, even your heart! Anyone else here ever sneeze while peeing? The pee (a bodily function) does not stop.
8. Babies are born without kneecaps. They don't appear until they are 2-6 years old. Anyone who's has a child knows this is untrue. Think of babies crawling without kneecaps...
17. The REAL reason ostriches stick their head in the sand is to search for water. Actually, they DON'T stick their heads in the sand at all.
18. The only two animals that can see behind themselves without turning their heads are the rabbit and the parrot. There are lizards and fish who can as well as most insects (so more than 80% of the world's animal population CAN see behind without turning).
I suspect there are more false statements there if anyone takes the time to look them up. Thanks for sharing though, next time, maybe you should check your sources before cutting and pasting nonsense.

Wow...you sound so upset. Calm down ^_^ - I didn't believe a lot of them anywho - it's called taking 'facts' with a grain of salt and researching, researching, researching before retaining the info. :D It's like believing everything that you read on an open source encyclopedia! Don't just wiki - use other re(al)sources.

He had one.... but it was eliminated when he had an operation.
Thanks Sheik... I was concerned he may have been a failed attempt of an alien invasion to take over the human race!

So the question should be worded differently to be factual then... It currently says "Alfred Hitchcock didn't have a belly button" inferring that he was born without one... (which is of course impossible...). If it is worded "Alfred Hitchcock doesn't have a belly button" it could be understood that he had one, and had it surgically removed...:rolleyes:

Why? Don't know... don't care? I feel better now that I know aliens are not living among us! LOL

5 years out of the 50 lived would mean that the average person spends 10% of their time spent waiting in lines. That's 2.4 hours per day...every day of one's life.

I knew that Timmie's was busy, but.... :eek:

Sorry, can't go for that one!

Lots of them are urban legends. For example, Coke would not be green if there were no colouring added to it.

Theoretically speaking the only man & woman in the history of the world that would possibly NOT have a navel, would be Adam and Eve... if you believe in Genesis of course.

I believe in Genesis, Sega Genesis that is.

One summer, I took the Florida Panthers ( an expansion team BTW) all the way to the cup finals.

Gord Murphy, a defenseman, lead the team (& league) in goals and assists.

Unbelievable!

So the aliens are stealing belly buttons? Is this some kind of navel attack?
