Crap. Cause it does make sense that it's called The Shroud of TURIN, rather than the Shroud of Jerusalem! (But honestly, I don't even know what the heck the Shroud of Turin is!)

Costa, the Shroud of Turin is believed to be the cloth that Jesus was wrapped in when removed from the cross.

Happy last week of Standard Time, FoCers. Yes, next weekend, we "spring ahead" into daylight savings time.

Well, today's question was:

Is the Shroud of Turin a religious relic kept in Jerusalem?

shroud

All of you except one said this was CRAP (and I think Mameblanche really meant to say crap, but was just being polite :-)).

Here's what the Calendar Catholics say:

It's CRAP! "The Shroud of Turin can be found in the Cathedral of Turin, Italy, where it's been housed since the late 1500s. Believers say the linen cloth bears a life-size imprint of the dead body of Jesus Christ; scientists have tried to solve this historical mystery with carbon dating. The results thus far are inconclusive."

I think that one was too easy and it definitely falls into the "trick question" category.

Here's a new one to ponder:

There are approximately 100,000 miles of blood vessels in the body of an adult human.

FACT or CRAP? You decide!

I think it might be

FACT

That's why people run and exercise so that their blood cells can zoom around for mile after mile after mile, all over the body.

Fact. Blood going from the aorta and back through blood vessels and the capillary system covers a lot of distance.
