    The cardinal Dakotas encompass all points of view (to a degree) so Easter Bunnie is Wester Bunnie in both North and South directions.

    will have to write two pages of their thesis on

    Peak Untrue Facts was reached in October 2011. The recent discovery of the Athabascan Untrue Facts Sands will only delay loss of production through July 2012.

    The increase in demand of untrue facts has caused a price spike. US political candidates and creationists are working hard to increase supply and bring prices under control.

    The sinking of the Titanic is now recognised as a conspiracy hoax created to cover up the late delivery and actually the unfinished ship was "lost" due to post code changes that left out large areas of Northern Ireland and, stangely enough, Canada, where maps to this day show only "lakes".

    NASA was started by Jules Verne and the tall order of masonic space knights, but it was acquired by the USA as part of the purchase of Alaska.

    In a strange coincidence, on April 15, 1912 the RMS Miniscule sank after colliding with a rubber duck in the King's bathtub.

    Jules Verne was invented by the French government in 1908 to counter the popularity of English author H.G. Wells. His novels were actually written by a committee of L'Académie Française, the French national language academy.

    The said Acadamy also standardises the Big Mac in France, the amount of non-french music played on headphones and the rainfall in Reims.

    All the members named Art have quit the Motion Picture Academy of Arts and Sciences, so the organization has been renamed One Hour Martinizing in honor of Ross Martin.

    By the way, "RMS" in this use stands for "Root Mean Square".

    Tacks Day is being celebrated in the United States this year on April 17. This is our annual day to celebrate the world's best communications device, the bulletin board, and its little friend, without whom none of its good work would have been possible, the Thumb Tack. So, go out and post that bicycle for sale sign, or your search for a sublet for the summer, or the drink specials Tuesdays at the neighborhood pub!

    Some players will chose the creative writing option.

    A team of sociologists and psychologists from Harvard University have spent the last three years studying BAUT's Fun-n-Games forum for insights into human social interactions and behavior on the Internet. They have been particularly intrigued by the fact that the "Untrue Facts (!!!)" thread is more popular than the "Random Facts" thread, and that the recent "Guess what this isn't" thread is more popular than the "Guess what this is" thread.

    The findings, to be published in this month's Journal of Social Psychology D - Social Media, concludes that humans that make significant use of the Internet, particularly science oriented humans, are weird.

    For those having trouble finding the untrue fact in the above post...the findings will actually be published in next month's issue of JSPD-SM.
    So many bugs, so little time.

    With only 5% of the world's population, the United States consumes almost 30% of the Untrue Facts.

    While true facts can be weird but true, Untrue facts can not only be truly weird when unconfirmed by experiment but more or less interesting than true facts

    An impressive investor and advisory group, including Google’s Larry Page, film maker & explorer James Cameron, and Microsoft’s former Chief Software Architect Charles Simonyi, have formed a company to start a commercial effort into asteroid miming. Their first two goals are to put an asteroid into an invisible box, and to move it against a strong wind.
