*The electric chair was invented by a dentist.

Not true. It was invented by Edison. Actually, Edison himself probably didn't invent it, it was probably his crew in his lab, but it's his name on the patent.
Edison wanted to prove the evils of AC current, his brand was DC. Edison toured the country doing demostrations of how "dangerous" AC was by hooking it up to and killing dogs, horses and even elephants.. Finally, he invented the electric chair. Certainly if the electric chair that ran on AC killed people, then most people wouldn't want AC in their houses.

Put your right hand over on your left side, pull your arm up with your right hand and stick your tongue out. It hurts though !!
Danger could be my middle name. But it's Paul.

Harold P. Brown and Dr. Fred Peterson invented it for Edison. One of them HAD to be a dentist. Dentists love inflicting pain!
Reminds me of the show 'Little Shop of Horrors' where Bill Murray loved going to the dentist and refused the pain killers. Classic.

Damn right it hurts! And I still couldn't lick my elbow.

[dove 0]

Hey! Skydive Monkey is right! You can lick your own elbow that way! But it doesn't hurt for me cause I have a LOOOOOONG tongue!
New hobby!

It says nothing of the sort!
14 CFR 1211 is a reserved number and has NOT been used for ANYTHING.

Well, the "Title 14" thing piqued my interest. I knew that had to do with aviation and it was just too wacky to pass up.

* It is impossible to lick your elbow.
False. I've seen a photo.
* People say "Bless you" when you sneeze because
when you sneeze,your heart stops for a mili-second.
False.
* A pregnant goldfish is called a twit.
False. Check the Straight Dope archives.

Quade took this one.
* A duck's quack doesn't echo, and no one knows
why.
All sound echoes, that's just the way it is.
* Most lipstick contains fish scales.
Some, not most.
* Cat's urine glows under a black-light.
So does my urine, but you wouldn't wave a blacklight over that.
* Ninety percent of New York City cabbies are recently
arrived immigrants.
What is recently? 5 years? 1 year?
*All polar bears are left handed.
Polar bears don't have hands.
*"Go." is the shortest complete sentence in the
English language.
If you allow a lone imperative to be considered a comlete sentence, then many sentences tie for the honor of shortest. "Halt." "March."
