Reminds me of a place in Australia I once visited that was full of some sort of tricks that I don’t recall now, except one. It was a mirror beside which were written some (true) facts related to how a part of the population can’t curl their tongues and other tongue-curling trivia. Anyway about 20 min later along the exhibits you end up almost back by the tongue thing again, but in a corridor behind. It was in fact a two-way mirror and you get to see the most disgusting views of people peering into a mirror doing the most graphic tongue curdling antics that you might ever wish to see.Last edited by TimberWolf; 23 January 2008, 10:59.Comment
