Sounds hilarious but  it is a Fact !!!!

"In old Roman Courts, instead of taking oath on the sacred books, men
used to swear holding their testicles.



Hence the word 'testify' originated from 'testicles'.
If proved false, the testes of liars were cut & fed to the dogs tied nearby.

(This punitive action could be very effective even today, especially
for many politicians in power !!!)

Have a beer!!!

email from Chellah Padmanathan

A man goes into a bar and drinks beer.

After every glass of beer he pulls a picture out of his pocket and looks at it. 

After the 4th beer the waiter asks him why after every glass of 

Beer he pulls the picture out and looks at it. 

Then the man says: It's a picture of my wife. 

When she looks good to me I'm going home. 

That is an example of the "The Power of Beer" 

Click where it says "click here" (This is the cute part).

Then push the beer glass to the right. ( slowly )

'Cuddles' Sakall: A Holiday Appreciation

Danny Kaye was one of the most popular entertainers in the United States and England during the 1940s and '50s, thanks largely to a string of successful films that showcased his witty song-and-dance routines. Kaye worked on Broadway, having success in the early '40s with Lady in the Dark. Audiences loved his energy and clever wit and he was a popular stage performer during World War II, frequently working with material written by his wife, lyricist Sylvia Fine. He made more than a dozen popular movies, including The Secret Life of Walter Mitty (1947), The Inspector General(1959) and The Court Jester (1956). For years Kaye was a spokesman for the United Nation's Children's Fund, and in 1954 he was awarded a special Oscar for his humanitarian efforts. During the '60s he was on TV, the star of The Danny Kaye Show (1963-67), but his style of entertainment was no longer the rage and his popularity waned. His last performance on screen was for the television movie Skokie (1981).

Extra credit:

One of Kaye's more famous routines is from The Court Jester and includes the line "the pellet with the poison's in the vessel with the pestle, the chalice from the palace has the brew that is true."
