Sudan Nuclear Tests by the USA

Didn't know that the USA tested Nuclear weapons in Sudan in the 1960s?
Apparently, neither did the Sudanese government who became highly distraught about it all.

Just read where this little misquote of a simple spelling error went. Absolutely amazing.

This is so funny that I believe it to be true. Humor on this scale is beyond the ability of any comedian. Of course, now that it's been reported as true, it will be considered true in many contexts.

As for CNN's quote being an "old saying," the least they could have done is look it up on the web. Generally attributed to Mark Twain, but actually said by Charles Haddon Spurgeon.
