When the Air Force conducted tests and broke the sound barrier, fields of turkeys would drop dead. -cranberries are one of only three major native North American fruits (Concord grapes and blueberries are the others) and ones of the highest quality will always bounce! - The world record for the biggest pumpkin pie was 2,020 pounds (after baking). -The average person eats 5,000 calories on Thanksgiving Got any more?Fly like a girl Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OverTech 0 #5 November 22, 2007 Quote HAHAH! How long did that experiment take? About 30 minutes back in the 70's when Arthur Carlson on WKRP in Cincinnati arranged to have turkeys dropped from a helicopter as a promo for the station... I loved that episode!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4o5L9jiIfbY Dave Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bolas 5 #8 November 23, 2007 Useless Fact: WKRP is one of the few shows not on DVD now. The reason is they'd have to get rights to all the songs they played just the beginning or ending of first or edit the audio. Stupidity if left untreated is self-correcting If ya can't be good, look good, if that fails, make 'em laugh. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jtval 0 #9 November 23, 2007 That sucks. I guess they'd have to sign a new contract since they never knew DVD would be the thing. That's a LOT of royalties and it'd probably not be worth the hassleMy photos My Videos Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
