a lot of these stories seem just too complicated. i have heard some of these before and seen them debunked but i can't find them now. i looked really quick and found this. don't know much about the site though.

I call shenanigans on most of these, but they are amusing!

1. How much does it cost to paint GW on a horse? Horses are complicated.

2. One chair? Really?

3. Corsets lace up in the back. At least, that's what I infer, based on watching movies of women holding on to bedsteads as people tug on their corsets from behind.

4. I doubt that common entertainment would be playing cards as I assume that would be considered gambling, which the Puritans would frown upon.

5. If the iron balls would rust to their base, what's stopping them from rusting to each other?

I agree with Amanda. They sound really complicated. They sound like someone trying to come up with a plausible theory and working backwards, not any actual investigation. Like when I was five and I thought a bank teller lived inside the ATM machine, because that was the most plausible explanation to me.
