Taco who sang "putting on the ritz" and falco who sang "rock me amadeus" are the same person.

That is completely false lol.

But since Falco was mentioned: Falco is the only German singer to reach #1 on US charts.

This is both creepy and super intriguing as well. What do you think? Think that there are clouds that carry bodies of water in them??? How freaky would it be if they actually proved this??? Nobody can explain this?

clouds ARE bodies of water. the most prevalent theory is that it is a tornado that sucks them up into the sky.

I could've used this tip last week. My fingers still stick.

Raining animals is a relatively common meteorological phenomenon, with occurrences reported from many countries throughout history.
The animals most likely to drop from the sky in a rainfall are fish and frogs.
Most recent occurrences include the rain of frogs and toads in Serbia (2005) and London (1998), and rains of fish in India (2006) and Wales (2004).
In Honduras, the Lluvia de Peces (Rain of Fishes) is a unique phenomenon that has been occurring for more than a century on a yearly basis.
It occurs in the Departamento de Yoro, between the months of May and July.
Witnesses of this phenomenon state that it begins with is a dark cloud in the sky followed by lightning, thunder, strong winds and heavy rain for 2 to 3 hours.
Once the rain has stopped, hundreds of living fish are found on the ground.
People take the fish home to cook and eat them.
Although some experts have tried to explain the Rain of Fishes as a natural meteorological phenomenon, the fish are not sea water fish, but fresh water fish; they are not dead, but alive; they are not blind, they have eyes; they are not big fish, but small; and the type of fish is not found elsewhere in the area.

This is both creepy and super intriguing as well. What do you think? Think that there are clouds that carry bodies of water in them??? How freaky would it be if they actually proved this??? Nobody can explain this?
