Title: If you could have one thing be revealed...
Post by: primushead on May 06, 2008, 08:14 PM
...what would it be?  

For example:

I would love to hear that JFK was assassinated by a government conspiracy.  NOT by Lee Harvey Oswald.  Or something.  I would love to hear decisive evidence on who actually killed him.

Please.  Clear that up for me in my lifetime.

Anything is game.

UFO's.  Bigfoot.  Who built the Pyramids.  Anyone?  Is this topic ever going to get going?

I'd like to know if the reason why I started at point guard in the first game of the season in Jr High was to light a fire under the guy who ended up starting every other game after that who I thought was better than me anyways...

Speaking of Kennedy, I just got this email and it weirded me out:
Abraham Lincoln was elected to Congress in 1846.
John F. Kennedy was elected to Congress in 1946.

Abraham Lincoln was elected President in 1860
John F. Kennedy was elected President in 1960.

Both were particularly concerned with civil rights.
Bo th wives lost their children while living in the White House.

Both Presidents were shot on a Friday.
Both Presidents were shot in the head

Now it gets really weird.

Lincoln 's secretary was named Kennedy.
Kennedy's Secretary was named Lincoln .

Both were assassinated by Southerners.
Both were succeeded by Southerners named Johnson.

Andrew Johnson, who succeeded Lincoln , was born in 1808.
Lyndon Johnson, who succeeded Kennedy, was born in 1908.

John Wilkes Booth, who assassinated Lincoln , was born in 1839.
Lee Harvey Oswald, who assassinated Kennedy, was born in 1939.

Both assassins were known by their three names.
Both names are composed of fifteen letters.

Now hang on to your seat.

Lincoln was shot at the theater named 'Ford.'
Kennedy was shot in a car called ' Lincoln ' made by 'Ford.'

Lincoln was shot in a theater and his assassin ran and hid in a warehouse.
Kennedy was shot from a warehouse and his assassin ran and hid in a theater.

Booth and Oswald were assassinated before their trials.
And here's the kicker...

A week before Lincoln was shot, he was in Monroe , Maryland
A week before Kennedy was shot, he was with Marilyn Monroe.

might sound better if it read:

I can't decide between....

1) Is there really a God?

2) What does Jim say at the end of What A Wonderful Man?

Decisions, decisions....
