  Quoting 'littlered' google is a number (1 followed by 100 zeros) Actually - The name "Google" is a misspelling of the word googol<1>. Milton Sirotta, nephew of U.S. mathematician Edward Kasner, made this word in 1938, for the number 1 and one hundred 0's Source - http://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google "not authorative but I’d trust that fact over someone else’s post on a site like RHP I'm sure that's only 1 of 100 mis-quoted / incorrect facts which get bandied about, pity it's so easy to cut and paste someone else’s crap without thinking too much.

  A man walks into a pharmacy and wanders up & down the aisles.The sales girl notices him and asks him if she can help him.He answers that he is looking for a box of tampons for his wife.She directs him down the correct aisle.A few minutes later, he deposits a huge bag of cotton balls and a ball of string on the counter.She says, confused, 'Sir, I thought you were looking for some tampons for your wife?'He answers, 'You see, it's like this, yesterday, I sent my wife to the storeto get me a carton of cigarettes, and she came back with a tin of tobaccoand some rolling papers; cause it's sooo-ooo--oo-ooo much cheaper.So, I figure if I have to roll my own . . .so does she.

  Snails mate by firing small darts at eachother. Ants hate lemon juice. The mafia killed JFK because he did not support trade agreements in chicago, Linden B Johnson did. John Lennon was shot over 7 times and he still managed to walk around outside the building asking for help for a few minutes. A failed satelite orbit trajectory in the 90's brought the thing back down to crash shortly after in Peru. The villagers who found the wreck took the plutonium cell and shared it out to other villagers to keep their feet warm at night in bed. A week later the recovery team discovered this event. Within a month most the villagers were dead. The Nuclear powers deny they are polluting the world's oceans. They say it's not them, but all the dead fish in the sea. Computer projections predict planet mercury will finally be drawn into the Sun and destroyed within the next 200 years, likely a bit less than 200. If earth is in line with the collision at the time, we will be wiped out in minutes by the blast and subsequent solar flare. Way to Go!
