Sam actually asked if someone could come up with something funny/interesting etc etc

Obviously one way of this is to link to it elsewhere but it doesnt stop it here.
I wonder if we could subtly alter famous ones - not unknown here in h2g2 to make a point.

You want a quote? You can't handle the quote!

Or a real one (from a friend near me)

"well it made sense it my mind, and thats what matters"

They're listed on the Unofficial Front Page Archive (U230056), but you'll have to delve into them month-by-month. smiley

Ohh how you limit yourself there paul.

Digital clocks look different upside down, so that can add even more correct times.

Then theres what happens when you move through time zones - round the northpole it could always be right.

Posted 4 Weeks Ago by Malabarista - considering the aesthetics of variable-altitude livestock
Ah, no, that's like the one about cats having three tails.

No cat has two tails. But one cat has one more tail than no cat, ergo, a cat has three tails.

A dog has six legs. Two legs in the back (poor dog! yikes ) and forelegs in front.

A horse, on the other hand, has twelve. Two in the back, two in the front, two on the left, two on the right, and one on each corner. geek
