Props on bringing this thread back.

From Wikipedia:
"Such excesses prompted the painter Salvador Dalí to send a congratulatory telegram to the 'Conducător', in which he sarcastically congratulated Ceauşescu on his 'introducing the presidential scepter.' The Communist Party daily Scînteia published the message, unaware that it was a work of satire."

I'd really like to read this. I can't find it anywhere.

Ikizukuri
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ikizukuri
The restaurant may have one or several tanks of live sea animals for a customer to choose from. After the customer chooses an animal, the chef will fillet the animal alive. The filleting process will not kill the animal and it is served to the customer while still breathing and moving.[2] There are different styles in which a chef may serve the dish but the most common way is to serve the live animal on a plate with the filleted meat assembled on top of the body. Another variant of ikizukuri involves temporarily returning a filleted fish to an aquarium to swim around until it is to be used in the dish.

Lithopedion
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithopedion
A lithopedion (Ancient Greek: λίθος = stone; Ancient Greek: παιδός = child), or stone baby, is a rare phenomenon which occurs most commonly when a fetus dies during an abdominal pregnancy,[1] is too large to be reabsorbed by the body, and calcifies on the outside, shielding the mother's body from the dead tissue of the baby and preventing infection.

Basically, when this happens, women have a fossilized baby inside of them.

The town that believes it's the resting place of Jesus. Not too strange until you realize it's in Japan.

Edward Mordrake
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Mordrake

Edward Mordake was reportedly the 19th century heir to an English peerage. He supposedly had an extra face on the back of his head, which could neither eat nor speak, although it could laugh and cry. Edward begged doctors to have his "demon head" removed, because, supposedly, it whispered satanist language to him at night, but no doctor would attempt it. He committed suicide at the age of 23.
