Really? Hasn't worked that well for me! ;-)

A girl I know told me she went out with an airline pilot the other day.
He told her a "story" about where he was transporting an empty 737
passenger plane to somewhere, on the way he rolled it. My friend seems
to think he is credible. I don't know. . .

A Boeing employee once told me that every production aircraft Boeing
has ever made has been rolled.

Certianly don't know how credible that statement is. I have however
seen a photo taken out of the 707 while inverted.

A properly executed aileron roll should not place undue stresses on the
airframe -- all you have to have is a lot of sky.

I know guys that roll DC-8s. It can be done and there is even old footage of
Tex Johnson (Johnston?) rolling a 707.

My first instructor looped a Caravelle (similar configuration to a
DC9) on several occasions during ferry flights (no passengers). How
much airspace does that take up?

Easy enough to check.
Look for the crap all over the washroom ceilings

Nope! In a properly done loop or barrel roll, the crap would stay
where it belongs.
