    The first words the Earl uttered when he stepped out onto the martian soil were, "I can't believe it's not Buttercup!"
    So many bugs, so little time.

    Bars on Mars sell beer by the vase but so far no Mars Bars. A Mars vase jar of beer's on a par with tar, so stay home.

    Unfortunately Nobel was killed as a child by a falling chunk of glassy metal broken off a Ford Time Transit Waggon. All the prizes were withdrawn in an implosion of etimanyd.

    The financial industry has lost billions as time travelers have paid their loans before they're issued.

    Phew, just in time a time traveller came back and shot the inventor (sorry noclevername) just before he made the invention and all we have now is a puff of future smoke and a rumour. It's funny but it keeps happening, what is going on?

    The words to Simon and Garfunkel's "Scarborough Fair" are really encoded equations for time travel.

    And if you play the song backwards, you'll hear the recipe for award-winning peanut butter fudge (Miss Emily Watkins, Blue Prize Winner, Kansas State Fair 1889).

    If you play Have You Been to Scarborough Fair real fast, it tells you where their time machine was hidden ... so I went there and discovered its batteries are not included.

    They've gotten much more successful since they have been followed by Susan Sarandon and moved to Durham.

    Al Pacino was going to record "Scarface Fair," as a satire (ala Weird Al Yankovich) of Simon & Garfunkle's "Scarborough Fair," but when Michelle Pfeiffer refused to duet with him, Pacino dropped the idea.

    Ironically, Sylvesterone Stallone WAS willing to duet the song with Pacino.

    One of the favorite Halloween activities of theoretical physicists is "Turn the Crank." Each school may choose their own crank. CT and ATM posters are completely immune from selection.

    The Earl of the Martian Marsh has sent his own personal space craft to bring Buttercup to Mars this year, well before the 2015 manned trip.

    The American government is going to spend a trillion dollar stimulus by giving a bit over $3,000 to everybody in America, for Halloween: the world's biggest treat.

    It's actually a deep code, the meaning of which is known only to the Illuminati.

    Untrue facts are the ones most likely to be believed.

    You have to clap your hands really hard if you want Untrue Facts to stay untrue.

    Welcome back to BAUT, Swift. Hopefully the next 10 days will make up for your notable lack of posts of late.
