I have an idea. lets come up with stories and try to pass them off to co-workers, family, so on as "real", but just off enough that they seem like a plausible urban legend. Start it if with "I heard" or something like that. OR, just state it as fact and let them try to look it up :).

DO NOT post actual urban legends, or actual facts (unless you are referencing them)
Here are some from me:

Frank Sinatra provided the voice for Woodstock in the old Peanuts cartoons. He asked not to be credited.

A cotton ball fired out of a rifle can penetrate the skin.

Brown Recluse spiders get into houses through toilets and sinks. the same evolutionary "fluke" that made them so poisonous also allows them to hold their breath for 20 days.

Gerald Ford is descended directly from the barbarian Hannibal.

A man in Pennsylvania had a psychotic episode where he believed he was the sole survivor in a "Night of the Living dead" style apocalypse. He injured 6 neighbors from his roof with a hunting rifle because he inssisted they were zombies.
