Snopes  — 

Where can you go to find out if Paul Macartney really owns the rights to Happy Birthday? I love this site and have it bookmarked. The Urban Legands area is my fave, as it discusses a million different stories that we all know someone who knows someone who knows someone whose cousin experienced them first hand. It's interesting when legands turn out to be complete bunk, but even mor einteresting when there's a shred of truth in the stories that get passed around and seem so inplausible.

This is a guilty pleasure, but a harmless one.
