    If a nanosecond is about a foot, how long is a femtosecond?

    When we were kids we used to take a roller skate apart, and nail them to the bottom of a two by four. The original skateboard!

    I don't know the difference between Simvastatin and Zocor and you're asking me?

    I'm trying to figure out why nobody has thought of mixing Ted Kennedy and Pedo Bear and getting Tedo Bear before.

    ~.305mm

    or about the time it takes for light to travel the distance of the width of a human hair.

    As a group of soldiers stood in formation at an Army Base, the Drill Sergeant said, "All right! All you idiots fall out."

    As the rest of the squad wandered away, one soldier remained at attention.

    The Drill Instructor walked over until he was eye-to-eye with him, and then raised a single eyebrow. The soldier smiled and said, "Sure was a lot of 'em, huh, sir?"

    I got in an argument yesterday with a school cop. I told him to
    "Draw your pistol or take your fucking hand off it. Standing there holding it while I chew your ass just makes you look like a pussy. "

    Afterwards there was a six hour game of slap and tickle (commonly called politics)

    I'll post more tomorrow night when on a real computer instead of an iPhone.

    Unbelievably no. I had lots of moral high ground and privacy.

    The first time I read this I found it a little harsh and extremist. I thought you said Onions.

    Cool Re: Random Thought of the Day

    I'm listening to an Online Radio Station. This one is based somewhere in Ohio; I don't know exactly, I'm not paying all that close attention to it.

    OK, it's WMWX. I still don't know or care where they're broadcasting from.

    But their DJ just did a few minutes of Talking. For the most part I ignore it and concentrated on my Work. But I well remember him saying, "It's after Labor Day. It's a Fashion Faux Pas to wear white, etc.
    It is also a Faux Pas for the Detroit Lions to win a game from now on."
