9/11 was an inside job.

There is an overwhelming amount of odd coincidences with 9/11, but nothing that is concrete. Yet.

What if you can't prove the truth to be true?

The irrationality of a thing is no argument against its existence, rather a condition of it.

I believe it's spelled believe.

"I before E, except after C, or sounding like 'ay' in 'neighbour' and 'weigh.' And weekends, and holidays, and all throughout May. And you'll always be wrong, no matter what you say."

"I" Before "E" Except After "C"
by Duncan McKenzie

It's a rule that is simple, concise and efficeint.
For all speceis of spelling it's more than sufficeint.
Against words wild and wierd, it's one law that shines bright
Blazing out like a beacon upon a great hieght,

It gives guidance impartial, sceintific and fair
In this language, this tongue to which we are all hier.
'Gainst the glaceirs of ignorance that icily frown,
This great precept gives warmth, like a thick iederdown.

Now, a few in soceity choose to deride,
To cast DOUBT on this anceint and venerable guide;
They unwittingly follow a foriegn agenda,
A plot hatched, I am sure, in some vile haceinda.

In our work and our liesure, our homes and our schools,
Let us follow our consceince, sieze proudly our rules!
Will I dilute my standards, make them vaguer and blither?
I say NO, I will not! I trust you will not iether.

Teacher: "Humph? Why does a kid have to question a perfectly good rule?"
Frazz: "Which rule?"

Teacher: "'I' before 'E' except after 'C', or when sounding like 'A' as in 'neighbor' and 'weigh'."

Frazz: "Who questioned it?"

Teacher: "That Stein kid."

Frazz: "Oh. Good for Keith."

From the comic strip "Frazz" by Jef Mallett published in the Detroit Free Press (and I'm sure others).



Not to bust your chops, because your comment did make me chuckle.... but it also reminded me of these, so I had to post them as well :D
