A man visiting Minneapolis headed back to his hotel at 3:00 AM in the morning.
Google said, "Cross the river."  So, following instructions to the letter our visitor started across the thin ice and fell through.  Damn Google...don't they realize that they should have specified, using the bridge, cross the river.

How much do you trust the internet?  Any other stories out there, KBers?

Recipe's. It happens a lot more than I would think it would.  Recipe asked for a a 1/4 cup of salt instead of 1/4 tablespoon of salt.  I've learned now that when I see soemthing like that I stop and see what other recipes ask for.  As my dad lways says "measure twice, cut once."
