Brains or... balls.

Just got this in an email from a friend. No idea if it is actually true, but I did verify that helmets were not mandatory in Hockey until 1979


The first testicular guard or "Cup" was used in Hockey in 1874 and the first helmet was used in 1974.

It took 100 years for men to realize that the brain is also important.


Of course, from a genetic point of view, the big head isn't as important as the little one... anyone who watched "The World According to Garp" knows that. LOL

Yes, I understand that undocumented immigration is illegal, please don't talk to me about until after you watch this.




A Minute Man (himself a legal immigrant) must live with a family of illegal immigrants in L.A. for 30 days. He also visits their old home in Mexico. That's all. No political discussions other than what he and the family talk about. No facts or figures other than how they live and what they earn.


I do not like the fact that these people come to the USA illegally. But is that the fault of the people, or the fault of the law?


Please don't try to answer that question or talk to me about this issue at all until after you have watched this short film.
