I should have known. Those silly doctors and scientists with all their stats and studies. They would know so much more if they were teens that smoked a lil sheesh. I'm done.

Based on your reasoning I guess the Government of the United States of America with military expenditures more than that of the rest of the world combined, with one of the largest and most sophisticated intelligence agencies, with top of the line technology, with allies in many other countries and information sharing with many other intelligence agencies from Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Australia, Israel (to name a few), with top military strategists and scientists...ADAMANTL Y THOUGHT THAT IRAQ HAD WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION, WHICH AS THE WORLD LATER LEARNED DID NOT EXIST.

Don't even get me started on the League of Nations with all of the member states which failed to stop anything including WWII.

What about Germany during WWII? The strongest country in the world at the time. With the smartest scientists in the world. Were they right in killing all those people in concentration camps? I didn't think so.

How about the FDA and other regulatory agencies. What about when they recall so many products they approved because they killed so many people. What about their scientists. Were they right?

Nothing is that clear cut. Plus look at the real evidence. Show me statistics of sheesha deaths. You probably can't even come up with one. Show me the statistics of people that died from cigarette smoking related deaths. Plenty of those. I'm done.

Interesting fact: I would like to move on. lol.

Anyways I want to move on, though it appears some people have intense views or do not wish to lose their arguments. I don't either, but I'm sure I've reached a fair finding in my other post. People will still have their opinions about it.

Ok here's a real one:

Interesting fact: Dogs have four toes on their hind feet, and five on their front feet.

Aww man, someone at work sent an email full of fun little useless facts like this at work. Of course now, I can't remember a single one. Hopefully I still have the email and can post 'em tomorrow.

Woah, that was some intense arguing =/! I like the suggestion of going back to interesting facts, yay

Here are mine
If you stop getting thirsty, you need to drink more water. When the human body is dehydrated, its thirst mechanism shuts off.

Chewing gum while peeling onions will keep you from crying.

Every time you sneeze some of your brain cells die. (I'm still not too sure about that one, despite the many times I heard it)

The attachment of the human skin to muscles is what causes dimples.

Hmmm for the first one isn't it that if you get thirsty you know your way too dehydrated because the body is actually dehydrated before you start feeling thirsty. I imagine if your thirsty and you stop feeling thirsty without actually drinking anything, you are pretty much about to die lol.

As for the sneezing one I could see how that could happen. We all know that sneezing is a powerful force right. So maybe the "recoil" (for those that have played FPS games haha) of the sneeze into the brain has something to do with it?

And the last one is interesting for sure. I like dimples they are cute, sometimes haha.

Haha I get the first one, since I practice it everyday. But I never thought of it that way

Haha, it's so sad, for the cells I mean And it's kinda like you lose IQ points everytime you sneeze. You know, I may never sneeze again after coming acrcss that

Dimples ARE cute.. most of the time

PS_ you should be asleep >.<.. People will think we're crazy when they see this in a few hours, haha

Haha well you don't "practice" it, its just a part of the "process" hehe

and don't be sad for the cells, there's plenty more. And a few cells won't affect your IQ...well its not like you have much IQ to affect. LOL I'm joking don't get mad hehe.

P.S. I will be going to sleep in about 10 mins...and no Sara, people already think you're crazy

Haha, true. But it did take practice for me to stand where I am today, no?

Heyyyyy =F. So not cool :(. Maybe my IQ is so high that those few cells are essential in keeping it that high

P.S. -Haha, 'crazy'is the new black, so it's actually a compliment Lol! And oh my, it's 6 AM =O, I blame you! Only because I can't blame MacInsiders<3 haha

Oh my, you're right- I didn't read the hour part. That's a ridiculous number of errors on behalf of the banks.
