Hi There!
Hee Hee. Sorry I didn't post much of a response, I just wanted to be the one to answer your question first. :D
There was(is??) a show on Discovery called "Mythbusters", where two weird nerdy guys debunk a bunch of Urban Legends. That's totally what I wanna do with my life. Get paid to be on TV performing dangerous unlicensed science experiments! :D
Okay, so the duck thing wasn't exactly "dangerous".
