    Default 6 historical paybacks

    I was reading this and it is at least entertaining. I haven't looked into how accurate it is yet. Enjoy. It is written kind of brash like it was meant to go onto one of those terrible man shows on Spike TV though.

    Nope, most are true,, just a little comic embellishment to them.. I remember watching a thing on Boudicca on History International.. Let's just say, You guys have no idea of what PMS REALLY is...

    Yeah, I figure they are true and verifiable, but I have a hard time taking stock in stuff that is written for that kind of audience.

    Easy way to get the Cracked readers to absorb a little history whether they know it or not... I always liked MAD just a little more, Though I would read Cracked on occasion...

    This just shows how entertaining History can be; and illustrates that truth IS stranger than fiction.......
