Sweet Pete Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Contrary to political correctness, "Eskimo" is still the correct term to describe the native peoples of the Arctic regions. The confusion arose when a BBC researcher for a Ray Mears documentary asked a village elder who was acting as their guide what the collective designation was for his people whilst simultaneously failing to alert him that a polar bear was standing behind him. "I knew it!" screamed the village elder as the polar bear snapped its jaws around his neck, killing him before he could finish saying "would be the death of me working with you stupid b*****ds!". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albino Rover Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 The World Octopus Wrestling Championships have taken place annually in Charleston, North Carolina since 1961. Past champions include Mike Love of Beach Boys fame (1964) and T. J. Hooker star Adrian Zmed (1987). While preparing for his role as Spiderman, specifically for the encounters with Dr. Octopus, Tobey Maguire entered the competition in 2001. Just a few seconds into his fight the octopus had him in a lethal quadruple-chokehold with 4 of its tentacles. Maguire's bodyguards, standing by with tranquilliser guns, shot mercilessly at his opponent and the beast consequently died of a haloperidol overdose. Maguire was unsuccessfully sued by several animal rights groups. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rajamaki11 Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 - Harald Brattbakk's father invented the Hawaiian Pizza - In the mid-'80s Jack Klugman suffered some type of breakdown which caused him to believe he really was Quincy; frequently turning up at crime scenes, inquests, etc. to offer his expert assistance - During a Scotland vs Luxembourg match in 1987 the Luxembourg left back was chasing the ball down the wing when the wig he was wearing detached and fell into the old enclosure at Hampden 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the plus side this is the 57th time I've had the cold in my lifetime meaning I've had all strains of the virus. I will now be cold free for the rest of my life. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Although most people think the Oscars started in America, the US Oscars gets its name and format from the Ugandan Oscars, which started 12 years before it. The Ugandan Academy Awards was created by the eldest son of Uganda's first Prime Minister Milton Obote, Oscar Obote, when he was 8 years old. The Ugandan Oscars still takes place annually, and for 24 years running the Best Lead Actor award has went to John Cusack. Another fun Oscar fact is that the real Schindler of Schindler's List fame was in fact called Barry Schindler, but Steven Spielberg changed his name to Oskar in the film to send a subliminal message to the academy. This worked on both sides of the Atlantic, as the film won 7 Oscar's in America and all of them in Uganda, with the exception of Best Lead Actor which went to John Cusack for Bullets Over Broadway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAFC Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 The saying brass monkeys comes from the trip to the North Pole in 1895 by the great explorer Arthur McCurthur. Monkeys were employed to piggy back the explorer and his team to the pole but went on strike due to financial issues. During the first night they simply sailed back to Southhampton leaving doomed Arthur to write 'damn you dirty brass monkeys!' in his journal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
