Can you guess which of the following are true or false?
2. Alfred Hitchcock didn't have a bellybutton.
Every human ever born had a bellybutton. Without one, the embryo would have no way of receiving nutrients while inside its mothers womb.
If Alfred didnt have a bellybutton he wouldn't have been born - he would have been stillborn or miscarried months earlier.
Did you know that the word "gullible" isn't in the dictionary?
Did you know that there was no 13th president?
Did you know that you don't really pay taxes, the money isn't actually taken out of your paycheck - it's never even paid to you?!
Did you know that there really is a perpetual motion machine? The government has it stored out at Area 51 in the desert with the UFO that crashed last century.
