Roanoke Colony for sure. Lizzie Borden, and a local one called "the lady in the dunes".

Also, why did Elliot Stabler leave his SVU squad?

@matador84: fascinating! looks like I can expand my reading list!

@bpcmarj: I just checked out the *lady in the dunes* . . . such an eerie quality to the story!

Oh man I love unsolved mysteries, mostly ancient ones. Who built the Sphinx and why... and who was it of? Is the face we see on it today the same one it was originally built with?

@bpcmarj: A friend of mine and I stayed overnight at the Lizzie Borden House (now, a B&B) – we slept in the room the step-mother got axed in! lol The historians who run the place have decent theories – the father was a control freak and extremely unpleasant; especially about his daughters, but the entire family in general. There was a lot of talk (and some evidence) that Lizzie and her father had an incestuous relationship and that she became pregnant and he ordered an abortion be performed (by the doctor who lived across the street). The murders took place shortly after that - they believe that Lizzie knew who the killer was and was involved in his hiring/convincing to commit murder but that she didn’t actually physically do it herself. The house itself is quite creepy; there are most definitely spirits there (if you believe!).

@pui: And why was Stonehenge built?

Malaysia airplane
the Mayans
Roanoke colony
Evolution- are we still evolving
was Abe Lincoln really black?
where is heaven? because after the clouds the universe is void of color
where is hell?

@MrsStormy: He may well have done it, but I think the burden of proof should be higher before they put someone on death row.

@mrbee: You might be right. I do know that a lot of the jury on that trial were very torn up over it, to this day she can't/wont talk about it, and she had to go to counseling after. The weight of "putting someone to death" is huge, that reason alone may be good enough to need more irrefutable proof I guess.

Guys I haven't heard of like half of these things! Major wikipedia binge here! FUN!

I want to know about JFK. I took a JFK conspiracy theory class in college, so I'd really love to know the actual truth there.

Natalie Wood, Marilyn Monroe, Tupac, Biggie, Amelia Erhardt, JonBenet Ramsey...all those high-profile, whatever-ever-happened/how-did-this-happen things.

All of the above, plus the recipe to Dr Pepper.

@Anya: Now I want a Dr. Pepper.

Yes to all of the above and I also want to know who killed Hae Min Lee.

One more... I want to know why I can fall asleep on the couch and be more tired than I ever have been in my life, drag myself to bed and then be wide awake? (Right now)

What happened to the two lost English princes.

@jlm22: I want to know who killed Hae too!

I also want to know if the palace had anything to do with Princess Di's death.

Ooh fun thread! JonBenet Ramsey kills me. Plus most of the above..

@Miss Ariel: that's a good one.

This thread is blowing my mind!!!
