Puzzling revelations
 
* The Marlboro man (died of lung cancer in 19) didn't even like Marlboro
cigarettes. He preferred to smoke Cools.

* Mother Theresa in her diaries (published after her death in 1997) revealed she
lost her faith in God. She still continued to lie about it in public until her death.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mother_Theresa :
Where is my faith? Even deep down ... there is nothing but emptiness and darkness ...
If there be God-please forgive me. When I try to raise my thoughts to Heaven, there is
such convicting emptiness that those very thoughts return like sharp knives and hurt my
very soul ... How painful is this unknown pain-I have no Faith. Repulsed, empty, no faith,
no love, no zeal, ... What do I labour for? If there be no God, there can be no soul. If there
be no soul then, Jesus, You also are not true.

* Kellogg's Cornflakes was made to stop young people from masturbating (!!) It didn't work.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Harvey_Kellogg

* Like many industrialists of the mid-1930s, Walt Disney had an admiration for Benito Mussolini.
It was not until Italy joined into the Second World War in 1940 that there was any major hostility
towards Italian fascism in the mainstream USA:
http://coat.ncf.ca/our_magazine/links/53/roach.html

But Walt made up for his silly admiration with several anti-fascist films. E.g.
"Der Fuerer's Face" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RNF86...eature=related
and "Education for Death" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eU1LHeim_hA

But was he really deep down a anti-democrat? His troubles with his workers at the studios
(especially the Jewish workers) and his perfectionist leader-style should indicate that
(controlling every detail with most productions). But maybe he was simply motivated by
profit (?) Make up your own mind. E.g:
http://www.straightdope.com/columns/...sney-a-fascist :
The German filmmaker Leni Riefenstahl, whose documentaries in the mid-30s had helped to glorify the
Nazis, claimed that "after Kristallnacht [1938], she approached every studio in Hollywood looking for
work. No studio head would even screen her movies except Walt Disney. He told her he admired her
work but if it became known that he was considering hiring her, it would damage his reputation.

Priest: Son, don't do that; it'll make you go blind.

Kid: It's OK, Father, I'll just do it until I need glasses.

at Disneyland Paris have commited suicide.

So, how'd they do it? Eat a bite of Snow White's poison apple? Prick
their fingers on Sleeping Beauty's spinning wheel? Get run over by
Benny the Cab in Toontown? Expiring mimes want to know!

One time when I was on vacation at Disney World, Orlando, (I was drunk
from a bottle of wine I bought at Disney World) I couldn't figure out
how to get that cup and saucer ride thingy to turn.A nice looking woman
was sitting there right across from me.She got the thingy turning around
and around, she could see I was drunk.Then, I went to the go kart rides
at Disney World.One of those young wimmin who worked at the go kart
rides had told me not to do that because that will cause the go kart to
stall and quit running.I was still drunk as a skunk and seeing double.Of
course I stalled that go kart! She ran out there and she got the go kart
running again.

I see - so all the suicidal kids had to do was show up on a day when
you were in the park and head to the go-cart course!

puzzling revelations,,, Have you ever thought about what happens to all
of that plastic weed trimmer line (also those plastic weed trimmer
blades) when it wears down to little bitty particles, and also where it
winds up? Would you on purpose grind up plastic and spread it all over
your yard? Multiply all of that by the many, many millions every weed
trimmer season, every year since the 1950 when that guy stuck some
plastic line in a popcorn can and hooked it up to an electric motor,,,
the Weed Eater, invention.In some parts of Europa, they call them
Strimmers.I Quit using a weed trimmer a few years ago, too damn much
trouble effing with them things!

Re-read your own link about Dr. Kellogg. He did not invent corn flakes to
curb masturbation. Although he was a
champion against masturbation, it had nothing whatsoever to do with his
brother and his invention of cold cereals. That was strictly a revenue
generating business which spun off to the brother running what is today
Kellogg's Corporation and the corn flakes recipe was stolen by a former
employee who started Post Cereals.

According to your own link, his solution to "self interference" was
surgical.
