New Game - True or False

[Interference]

(You're cracking me up tonight, Arwena )

True, the ones with feathers are used to it by now.

T/F Plucked birds never flock.

[Arwena]

True, buy they do get potted

T/F A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush

[Interference]

False, since if the two in the bush are a mummy and a daddy you can have eggs galore for years and years and years.

T/F A Bush in the Whitehouse is worth a lad in a bin.

[Arwena]

False - there's no more bush in the white house

T/F If the plural of mouse is mice, then the plural of house should be hice

[Sparrow]

False. Plurals are a matter of tradition, and you can't break with tradition. You can thank our Old English roots for mutated and irregular plurals... way back when House was pluralized to Housen.


T/F, The Devil's Dictionary should be required reading in high school.

[Granfalloon]

False - at least I don't think it should be, even though it is.

T/F - Hell's library is lined with books full of 9th grade mathematical word problems.

[Interference]

False, Hell's library was lined with Jeffrey Archer novels until the Devil realised, when Archer finally goes there, he'd think it was Heaven.

T/F The thickest books contain the greatest knowledge.

[Arwena]

Now that is dalse. The tihckest books contain the most information bits but not necessarily the greatest wisdom.

T/F All of the wosdom that has ever been uttered can be put on one computer chip.

[Granfalloon]

False, That would be wasting computer chip real estate.

T/F There are those that say there is existence. There are those that say there is nothing. There are those that say there is neither. The last group are truly wise.

[Arwena]

False. I think, therefore I am.

T/F Descartes was the greatest French philosopher.

[rocketmonkey]

False. I thought it was Eric Cantona...

T/F Zombies are, by and large, great dancers

[Arwena]

That depends on how you define "great" and "dancer"

T/F Flamingos are the best guitarists

[Granfalloon]

False - of the Class Aves, the Falcon is far more intelligent than the Phoenicopterus of the two genus', and therefore the far better guitar players.

T/F - The Flaming Lips are one of the few truly interesting bands to come out of The U.S. in the 21st century.

[Arwena]

True - never heard anything by them but for the name alone. From Benjamin Franklin:

T/F Experience is the worst teacher. It always gives the test first, and the instruction afterward.

[Granfalloon]

This requires a 2 part answer. True, Benamin Franklin was most likely to be the person who said that, and False, because I think it could be argued that experience is the only teacher. (depending on your definition of experience.)

T/F Eric Clapton was one of the best Guitar players of his time, and an extraordinary drug addict.
