And YOU can continue to believe everything you read on the internet.

yes, there are plenty. Do your homework.

and i'm pretty sure you're a nut.

Did you actually look at Snopes' account of this? If that's not accurate, then they sure went to a lot of trouble to manufacture their independent corroboration.

You have a great deal of confidence in your own judgment.

It would be nice if it were justified.

Turn around and head back up the road a ways, Steve. You lost your sense of humor somewhere back there...

In other words... you *can't* substantiate it.

You made the claim -- you back it up.

I don't believe everything I read on the internet, but unlike you, I can separate the wheat from the chaff.

While I didn't expect an attack from you, I guess you're right Doug. I did get caught up in it. . This whole thread is a comedy.

What, you think *that* was an attack?! You obviously haven't read any of my responses to Toller's electrical "advice". :-)

My point simply was that the piece on Mr. Ed was an *obvious* farce... and you took it seriously.

HA HA HA HA HA!

Had to show the wifey this one.

OHHhhhhhh. I C. and yes, I've been monitoring yor responses to the ill electrical advice. Thanks for hanging in there, it's amazing what some people think is right or what they will do. I know I've learned a lot just lurking here.

Well not everything on Snopes is true by the way, but in this case I confess I was fooled. However I still have a hard time believing that a spontaneous event like that spawned that many photos - unless the guy was doing this for

5 hours or something and then there'd be a hell of a lot more people around him. And there has to be some 1000 lbs on that car's roof being held up with twine?

I still say it's staged, but it happened, I was fooled.

The twine gets me. Acceleration of the car, bumps in the road, sudden braking of the car and no State Troopers on the highway. The twine held, right. HD should sell the twine and not give it out at the door.

"Well, it doesn't happen all the time, but when it happens, it happens constantly."

You'll have to do a LOT better than that!

You don't take that seriously, do you? I mean, come on. That page is an obvious joke. Look at the page that it's linked from:

But didn't we do this yesterday?

While it's true that the store is false, it's known and stated to be false... or true... or... well, you know.
