Written by David Holt & Bill Mooney
Have you ever heard the silly story about the woman whose beehive hairdo was sprayed so stiff that tiny creatures decided it would make a perfect home?

They’re modern folktales, passed along as “totally true,” even though they always happened to a “friend of a friend.”
