URGAN LEGENDS OF THE WEEK

Did you know that Catholics believed the Titanic was doomed because the hull number read NO POPE backwards? Or that the Titanic was carrying a cursed mummy in its cargo? Or that it was the first ship to ever send the SOS distress signal? Or that a shipyard worker was accidentally trapped and entombed inside the Titanic's hull? Or that when the Titanic hit the ice burg, Jacob John Astor quipped: "I asked for ice, but this is ridiculous."

That's right, it's a slow Friday, and time for another Urban Legends round-up, just so you can be that ass at the party who interupts his or her friends' anecdotes and come off as a know-it-all.
