QUOTE BUDAPEST (Reuters) - A new bridge in Hungary could be named after Hollywood action movie actor Chuck Norris unless the trend turns in an Internet vote organised by the Economy Ministry. Votes for the "Chuck Norris Bridge" had attracted 8,725 votes or 11 percent by Tuesday morning, just ahead of those cast in favour of naming it after Hungarian humorist Geza Hofi and three times more than for Szent Istvan, founder of the state. Votes can be cast until September 8 on the www.m0hid.gov.hu Web site, where people have put forward more than 500 nominations including Bud Spencer and Bob Marley, as well as names referring to construction delays such as "It Will Never Happen Bridge". A government committee will review the three winning names, as well as other proposals put forward by local governments, cartographers, linguists and other experts. The bridge over the Danube north of Budapest is due to open in 2008. http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20060801/od_uk_...DRpBHNlYwM3NTc- |

Yeah, and RedBull was created when Chuck Norris decided to sell his pee in a can. It's true. I read it on the internet.

That's absolutely classic. He's so badass, he gets his own bridge. I'll visit it someday.

I must vote for this.
Why? Because Chuck Norris sold his soul to the Devil for his rugged good looks. He then proceeded to roundhouse kick the Devil and stole his soul back. The Devil chuckled and agreed "That was a good one." The Devil and Chuck Norris now play poker every Thursday. |
