Don't know about the mushroom. Gen. Sherman is considered largest by volume. By volume, it measures 1487 cubic meters. It is estimated to be between 2300 & 2700 years old.

OK, I stand corrected. The General Sherman is now classified as the World's Largest Living Single Stem Tree. YLGuy, I still say   it's your turn.

A whole crapload of idiots.. *LOL*  I hate dodgeball.  My elementary school gym teacher loved it, though.  I was a short, fat, slow kid with glasses.  Easy target.  Them balls hurt too

A little bit of baseball trivia: When the Athletics moved from Kansas City to Oakland in the late '60s; what was their mascot? For bonus points, what was the mascot's name?

You are correct, Pitagory! The owner of the A's at that time was Charles O. Finley. He was the force behind the designated hitter rule(before that all pitchers had to bat for themselves). He was also the first owner to allow his players to have facial hair (a gimmick that went along with mustache day where all men with facial hair were admitted free). And many, many more.Charles Finley was quite controversial in his time. I remember when the A's moved to Oakland and getting to "meet" Charlie O. The song/jingle went: "Charlie O the mule; Charlie O the mule. He goes where the A's go; just like me and you." You're up, Pitagory!
