Good luck remembering history correctly.
Sometimes people have trouble remembering what they saw in first person. I like the dinosaur at the right of the header. It looks very nice. |
king tut had a grill!
|
I had read about that as well.
Kool either way. |
great stuff! since when did cracked get so informative? i thought they were always along the lines of Mad, which in retrospect was informative in its cynical satire.
but out and out info articles... |
oh, come on! All of those examples on that site are well known and pretty obvious. If you didn't know them then you must have had a really poor education.

Knew some of that but not all of it.
#2.Jesus Looked Nothing Like the Paintings Can't remember who it was but may have been King Henry VIII who chose a wife from a painting and got fucked over by the artist :1orglaugh |

I don't know if you follow any ancient egypt documentaries, and I'm not sure what his actual title is, but in a nutshell Hawass is pretty much the top egyptologist overseeing all archeology in the region for the Egytpian government. What makes me crazy is he does all these specials on History and Discovery, etc etc and he presents his theories as facts. When new information comes out and contradicts what he put out there before he just changes the story in the next special w/o skipping a beat. If you watch something made even just a few years ago vs something made today it's like night and day. So what he told us he knew for fact backed by all this "evidence" was all bullshit and misinterpretation but NOW he wants us to believe he knows what he's talking about? :disgust I just appreciate when theories are presented as just that, theories. I like a "this is what we found and this is what we think it might mean" set up. Our concept of history and the truth of actual events will always be skewed. |
