I know...that last part was just a spoff of whoever wrote this. I did not think someone would take that serious!

Opps...I guess I was wrong.

Ha, no. That list has been circulating for years ... at least for 10 years. I'm sure there are other things false in it, but I noticed the Marilyn mistake the first time I saw the list.

Find the other falsehoods...let us know what they are. I mean, you've had 10 years to study this!

Not sure what all the laughter is about. I've got better things to do than to watch a half-wit laugh himself silly after realizing some lame list he posted has mistakes.

Thanks for reminding me why I frequent this site less and less.

I can tell you one other mistake.

Booth was shot in a barn, not a warehouse.

Even longer than that, Chief...

I remember growing up in the 60's in Bossier City, LA. They had a vending machine at the A&P Grocery that dispensed a Lincoln penny with a small Kennedy head facing his. Then there was a small piece of paper that you unfolded and it had all of these (except the Marylin Monroe thing). That was about 1970-71...
