During the Civil War, Abe Lincoln promised to give Manhattan to the British to keep them from helping the Confederacy. The deal said that the transfer would happen on the day we swore in our first black president. Since Obama is half-black, they’re only gonna get half of Manhattan. Everyone in the lower half of Manhattan at the time of inauguration will automatically become British citizens.

The 1969 Moon landing was real. However, the televised footage of it was pre-recorded at a sound stage in Roswell, NM. This was done to cover a diplomatic expedition to sell Tang to the Selenites in exchange for Velcro and digital-watch technology.
Jim Croce was a Ku Klux Klan member and a spoiled trust fund baby whose only knowledge of street life came from reading Reader’s Digest and publications of the John Birch society.

You guys are far, far too good at this. Just about every one of these sounds plausible enough to send off to everyone I know. Not that I would do that. That would be…wrong.
You know, I have two calico cats, and I don’t think I’ve ever seen them facing the setting sun.
Did you know President-Elect Obama has six toes on one foot? Crazy, eh?
Well, they’re not ALL plausible. But we did this same thread a decade ago over on the snopes forum. Someone went through and picked out the most plausible, including the three from my post in this thread, and assembled them into an e-mail. A bunch of us sent it out to everyone we knew to see if it would make the rounds.
It didn’t.
One legend included something about “the famous Snopes Monkey Trial.”
Tootsie Rolls were named after the inventor’s pet cat Tootsie. They were fashioned to look like small pieces of cat feces as a joke, as “Roll” was a common slang term at the time for excrement.
Roland Lee Gift, lead singer of 1980’s chart toppers Fine Young Cannibals once admitted in an interview with NME that the song “She Drives Me Crazy” were inspired by a romantic tryst that the singer had with Diz McNally who played Diz Aster on Nickelodeon’s hit 1980’s TV show “Out of Control”.
John Gilchrist aka Mikey, best known for the Urban Legend that he died from an overdose of Pop Rocks, was the model for the popular line of Billy Blastoffspace toys.
