True (Maybe) Facts about Chuck Norris

I saw my good friend Chuck Norris on Huckabee on Saturday. (Great to see him and Mike paired up again!) Chuck was talking about his new paperback, The Official Chuck Norris Fact Book: 101 of Chuck’s Favorite Facts and Stories. Let me just tell you, it is funny! I think it’s hilarious that on the cover, in a yellow starburst is a quote from Chuck: “I officially approve The Official Chuck Norris Fact Book.”

I’ve known Chuck for a long time and I’m always glad to see him and his wife, Gena, attend Prestonwood when they’re in town. Obviously, I think the world of him and I’m pretty sure some of the facts in the book are true! So, in honor of my superhero friend, here are some of my faves:

• “When Chuck Norris was born, the only person who cried was the doctor. Never slap Chuck Norris.”

• “Lightning never strikes twice in the same place, because Chuck Norris is looking for it.”

• “Chuck Norris can eat just one Lay’s potato chip.”

• “Chuck Norris’s mind is connected to the Internet. He refreshes Web pages by blinking.”

• “There is no chin behind Chuck Norris’ beard. There is only another fist.”

• “Chuck Norris never uses a stunt double, except during crying scenes.”

• “When Chuck Norris wants an egg, he cracks open a chicken.”

• “Chuck Norris never loses his way because all roads lead to Chuck Norris.”

• “Chuck Norris uses Tabasco sauce for eye drops.”

• “On the seventh day, God rested ... and Chuck Norris took over.”

If you’re looking for a quick read with lots of laughs, go pick up a copy of the book and let me know which facts you liked.
