It is said that the Jack-o-lantern was an Irish tradition. The story tells of Jack who tricked Satan into climbing a tree. He carved a cross into the tree and the Devil begged Jack to let him down because he could not take the sight of the cross anymore. After Jacks death, he refused Heaven because of his evil ways, yet was denied Hell by the devil for tricking him as well. Instead, the devil gave Jack a single ember to find his way through the darkness with. The ember was inserted into a turnip to keep it glowing longer. After the Irish came to America, they opted using pumpkins instead of turnips because the pumpkins were more efficient in keeping the ember lit.

You know where the term "Running like a chicken with it's head cut off" came from right? The Chicken meets its fate when the owner of the farm decides to have chicken for dinner and then after the axe comes down on the feathered meal's neck it runs around for a few minutes until it eventualy bleeds to death. Yes I believe we all know this. BUT. Did you know that the longest recorded chicken to live without it's head was named Miracle Mike? He lived for around ONE AND A HALF YEARS AFTER his head was removed!

So how was Mike able to survive? Scientists examined him and determined that the hungry owners had not done a very good job at chopping Mike's head off. Most of the head was actually removed, but one ear remained intact. The slice actually missed the jugular vein and a clot prevented him from bleeding to death. Apparently, most of a chicken's reflex actions are located in the brain stem, which was also largely untouched.
