Can't PROVE or DISprove, but my 13-year-old son told me the same thing.

Said he saw it on the news at TV.

He gets home from school way before I get home from work, so it's
possible.

Besides, I have to reason to believe he'd make up something like this.

What's more, if it's true, do I have a possible legal action against
PCH since one of them could have been my entry??

Let me see here... there's a story I've heard about Davidson Hall here at
Virginia Tech.  It seems that some new lab hood blowers were installed a few
years back.  After installation, it was realized that the CFM of the new
blowers exceeded the total cubic feet of the building.  If all the blowers
were started at once, the windows would implode.  Two of the three units were
disabled and padlocked soon afterwards.  One wonders if some industrious 
student will ever think up a unque method of delaying final exams... :-)
This story was told to me by a friend who works for Tech.  No, I haven't
tried climbing on the roof to read the capacity of the blowers up there.

I forget the name of the article, something like "compulsive
desire to operate on self".  Someone from Madison sent me
email saying the guy is still around and has to be chased
out of the medical library on occassion.

Cutting on yourself isn't really Munchausen, although perhaps
it is related. Maybe Mark can tell us more, but the Munchausens
get their pleasure from being operated on or at least treated
(usually dramatically) by doctors.  Schizophrenics will sometimes
mutilate themselves, as will borderlines sometimes.  But
I think someone like him is so rare no one could have predicted
it unless he told them about it.

     And according to a friend who used to skin the ex-cattle, it
doesn't always work the first time.  Because of that, he preferred the
bloodier work on the finally-dead animals.  Not as humane as it

This just in -- FCC official Craig Shergold has announced new

including bulletin boards and public network services.  Critics say he
is still bitter from a childhood experience during which he was buried
underneath several tons of get-well cards, largely due to the
well-meaning efforts of computer users all over the world, and this
has sparked his current crackdown.

Everyone reading this message would be affected by a tax on modem
lines!  It's vital that we make ourselves heard, and stop this FCC
ruling.  Please, forward this message to as many bulletin boards and

You forget the wartime "mill" used for fractional cents.  There was a red
plastic "1 mill" and a green plastic "5 mill" piece.  A mill was a tenth of a
cent, used for fractional cents in sales tax payments.

They were discontinued sometime around 1950, but many were still in circulation
when I was very young.

I once knew an ornery old land surveyor who wore a little pendant
around his neck which looked like a thin claw.  He told everyone it
was a mink's dick bone.  He claimed male minks are the only animals
which actually have bones in their boners.  The story was, a lady mink
farmer had given it to him in payment for his having set the property
corners on her mink farm.  He wore the bone as a token of masculinity.

I don't believe a boned penis would be selected for and would become
a popular trait in any animal, especially since The Deflatable Penis
has already been refined so.  Were penises to stick out like tent poles
all day and night they would be prone to damage.  They would make easy
targets in a fight, and might catch and break on something while the
animal was running.  I can see it now:



     "What happened to you?"

     "While chasing that cute female, I fell and broke my boner.
God I hate it when that happens.  Will you sign the cast?"

I'll stick with my inflatable (literally).

If minks do indeed have skeletal material in their wieners, other
weasel-like animals should also have vestiges of the trait,
and the story should be more common.

Nor to me. Never seen a baby carried to term without the mother knowing, but a
very large lass was brought into the A&E department where I worked, with
'suspected bowel obstruction' (GP's diagnosis). On examination, she turned out
to be bleeding PV, and had a mass in the pelvis and lower abdomen
consistent with a 32 week pregnancy. This was confirmed by ultrasound, and
came as a complete surprise to the woman concerned, who also denied
intercourse...
