I know you have one... we have all heard about the little old lady that tried to dry the cat in the microwave...the story of the Bloomingdale's cookie recipe...the dog that fetched a stick of dynamite.

hunk 'o, hunk 'o burnin' heartburn!

That is a GOOD one, Karen... will keep that in stock for a kick sometimes!

As urban legends go, my favorite is still the one about crocodile in NY sewers. It is a classic, and in never looses its punch.

Another good one, is about the cherry pits: if one should swallow them, a cherry tree may start growing in the stomach!

Same with watermelon seeds, they'll grow out the ears!
And apple seeds too...


But what I don't understand is why don't we get banana trees growing in and out of us? Or kiwis? Or cucumbers?!!

My favorite radio station has been playing with the stories about people who find an old cask of rum or brandy, enjoy a rather large weekend, pour off bottles to share, then discover a pickled body in the cask.
