** I got a Fact or Crap tear-away-a-day calendar as a Christmas gift and have brought it to work. I will try and post a few of the better ones once a week or so. I am keeping track of how many I get right/wrong by tacking them up in two stacks on my cube wall. If anyone wants to play along, you can leave your votes in the comments and I can post the answers the next time I add more (maybe even with some fancy graph to see who is leading.

If you want to look up the answers on the web, I am sure they are out there but please refrain from posting the real "answers" for at least a few days so that everyone has a chance to think about it. **
