Yes, but that was true:ciggrin: Just look at some of the other stories on that site, Russians have found a cure for homosexuals. Hitler was Jewish. I bet there is something about being able to respect and trust politicians.

Don't forget the headline that Apple have released an App called 'Ispirit' which allows you to talk to ghosts :fart:

I remember something about the Japanese soldier he wouldn't surrender or believe the war was over until he actually heard it from his own commanding officer.
Who fortunately was still alive and dressed him in full uniform ans shipped over to order him back home.
Or is that Billshut too
I don't think I am that gullible am I? I didn't believe this bloke could come out with freshly cut hair and clean shaven.

I think it is just as plausible that there was a grooming kit stashed with the emergency 17 year supply of rice along with batteries for his torch:ave_it:

It sounds like the other story I found unbelievable but I couldn't find any mention it on snoops.com. It was reported in the lesmahagog recorder that a search party had been sent into Stephens shed after he hasn't been heard of for weeks after he entered it to clear it up. They have heard sounds and believed that he has failed to reach the exit, hope is fading.
