I know a great myth/ folk story from my town in Honduras. (I'm going to try to directly translate, and slightly paraphrase). There is this big sugar cane field in the town... the story goes that two teenagers went to the cane field to fool around. They were doing their thing... but then suddenly, they heard a noise... It was dark, ofcourse... only the moonlight was shining on them. Then, suddenly...something jumped on them.... it was La Chupatetas! (The "tit sucker"). La Chupatetas was an ugly ugly old woman that never died... she got her life force by sucking on teenager tits. She sucked the two teenagers tits, and they disappeared forever. So be careful kids, do not go to fool around in the Caneras (cane fields)... or La Chupatetas might get you!
My favorite is that fitzy bought his way into the Mr. RT competition through his families' hotel chain connections.
heehee. there's a myth that says that ninjas are sneaky. well, im here to tell you ladies and gentlemen, that it is a fact, not a myth. unless your like me; and you are so clutsy that you trip over cordless phones. heehee.
i do what i gotta do to get recognized around here...and now i'm MR. RT 2007, so it worked out and its a myth that men are significantly less chatty than women
It's a myth that men can't do or pay attention to more then one thing at once... They just say that to get women to leave them alone.
I wrote this for school..... Bloody Mary You’re at your best friends 13th birthday party, everyone is downstairs playing games like Truth or Dare?, and Spin the Bottle. Then someone tells of a game they had played at another party called Bloody Mary. The rules were that you had to walk into a dark bathroom with only a candle. You had to stand in front of the mirror and say Bloody Mary three times in a row. Sound familiar? A popular game played at parties, but how did it begin? There are many theories about who she was. One legend was that she was a witch, another states that she was a ghost and of course the one where she was a queen. In the Bloody Mary story that refers to her as a witch, Bloody Mary lived in a small house in the forest. The town near by had given her the name Bloody Mary. One night, young girls had started to go missing in the town. The towns men knew it was Mary but had no proof. One night the father of one girl saw his daughter leaving from her bed and heading toward the forest. The father alerted neighbors to follow and assist him. As they followed the girl she continued to walk toward Mary’s house. Bloody Mary was standing on her porch with a wand chanting words. The men grabbed Mary and brought her to town to burn her at the stake. As she burned she screeched a curse that any soul that dare say her name three times in front a mirror would have his or her eyes scratched out by Mary herself. In the Bloody Mary legend where she was a ghost. It says that Bloody Mary was in love with a man. She had been seeing him for many years and gotten engaged to him. About a month before the wedding Mary told her friend that she was planning to call off the wedding. Some how her fiancee found out. The night she was planning to break off from him, he came up to her while she was putting on make up in the bathroom. He acted at first that he was giving her a hug from behind but then snapped her neck. Once he had done this he cut her eyes out and kept them. Because Mary was murdered in front of a mirror her soul was trapped inside. Whenever her name is said three times in front of a mirror Mary comes out and scratches your eyes out and of course, keeps them. Another story states that Bloody Mary was a Queen named Mary Tudor. The legend was that Mary was a beautiful woman who continued to age but looked nothing of her age. One day a slave found Mary’s secret room. It was full of dead slave girls and one tub. Mary was in the tub bathing in blood. She was put to death. All thought there is no real connection to this Mary and mirrors, it is still found as a Bloody Mary Legend. All of these stories are different you see. They do have a few things in common though . It always involves a woman named Mary, the victim of the mirror summoning has his or her eyes scratched out ,and that Bloody Mary is summoned by saying Bloody Mary three times in a row. Although there is almost no way to find out who Bloody Mary really was, the game is continued to be played by children and teens who don’t really care how the story began, but just want a good scare.
>that anything NEEDs to be infallable. >that hierarchy is inheirently bennificent. >that letting little green pieces of paper get away with murder takes care of everything that needs to be, with perfect efficiency, and a minimum of burdent to everyone. >that letting any government, under any idiology, weasil out of any ligitimate reason for its existence will somehow make it dry up and blow away. >that we live in a universe that was created by an all powerful spoiled brat who throws a temper tantrum every time anyone refuses to kiss his ass. i DO believe though that there IS something creative, immaginative, very powerful and very very VERY strainge. so strainge that nothing tangably living can even begin to immagine anything about it. and that it leaves it up to us to avoid screwing everything up for each other. for many reasons undoubtedly, not the least of which being that it has better things to do with the rest of eternity then spend it chainging our diapers. =^^= .../\...
