    Was Mrs. Michael on her way to the hospital? (Where are these “some” hospitals that use fish skin?) [How can a 2,146-year-old corpse still have blood running through the veins?]

    Who was the first person that decided to put the skin of a fish on his/her burns?

    Is it just me or does that sketch of Lady Xin Zhui look like she might have been the ancestor of a certain North Korean politician?

    Hey, Mrs. Michael’s delivery is nothing. It’s not like it’s never been done before. In fact, someone I know did just that. And I’ll bet Mrs. Michael’s delivery took longer. My acquaintance was in the car with her husband and all of a sudden she said “Jeff, I think the baby’s coming.” So I assume he started for the hospital. But then within a couple minutes she said “Jeff, the baby’s here!” He was like “What do we do now?” I’ve had a harder time pooping!

    Like a story about the lady that delivered on the cart in the elevator going up to the delivery room. “Oh, I’m so embarrassed!” The EMT replied “Think nothing of it – about a year and a half ago a lady dropped a healthy girl right out on the front lawn!”

    “Yeah, I know – that was me too!”

    Wife’s niece knows someone that delivered a week after falling on ice and breaking a leg! (Then there was the story about a baby being born with a broken arm – was trying to hang on until the wedding was over!)

    " I know somebody who said…" Otherwise known as FOAF: Friend Of A Friend. A lot of urban legends start that way.I’m not doubting any of you, but it would be nice to hear the story direct from the source.

    I just read about a couple of bears and a mountain lion cub whose paw pads were treated with tilapia skin: https://abcnews.go.com/Technology/wireStory/bears-burned-california-wildfire-spotted-wild-53183427
