Things to Ponder

THey would probly go backwards for a few miles and then drive to your destination just so they could charge you more.

Pup keeps telling me that he has ‘deet ruts’ - not too sure what that is… should I be scared or entertained? :huh:

Can’t help you. I haven’t got a clue myself it sounds pretty nasty though whatever it is.

Maybe the dog’s been around if you know what I mean. :smiley:

Because they think blistered ankles attracts men.

This is something I’d like to know as well. :blink:

I’d like an answer to that too. While a very high heel does add a curve to the leg that many men find appealing, I’m not sure they would find the ankle cast equally appealing. :S

Yeah, I solved it quickly enough, but now I keep thinking there should have been a quicker or more simple way of seeing the answer. Been a long time since I played with math. Calculus 5 in college burnt me out.

[spoiler]Oh yeah, A^2 + B^2 = C^2, for those that forgot. So 19^2 + 19^2 = X^2. You can either add 361 to 361 and take its square root or take the square root of both side and add 19 to 19 to get x = 38 (27). Do I win anything?

Edit: It would help if I did not have my hand one key over on the numpad![/spoiler]

Well the picture is a lot easier on the eyes than my Calculus professor in college was.

He was a former US Marine.

It was 1978 and we had 3 Vietnamese with PHD’s in the class that were working on getting new degrees from a US Accredited school.

I never worked so hard for a C in my life. I’m proud of it to this day.

[spoiler]I got a different answer Redshirt…

the formula is A^2 + B^2 = C^2… so that would mean…

A=19
B=19
C=?

since we’re solving for C, you can place the two other numbers into the formula.

19^2 + 19^2 = C^2 Now we just solve it

361 + 361 = C^2

722 = C^2

so C^2 = 722, but we’re not solving for C^2 we’re solving for C so we take the square root of 722 and we get 26.87 or if we’re rounding up… 27

so C = 27[/spoiler]

^ Hornet’s is better. You know what teachers ALWAYS say? Show your work!!!

Facepalm I solved this before noticing the teacher!

This is a form of a “special” right triangle. It is a larger version of 1, 1, sqrt(2). So, the answer is 19*sqrt(2).

My Theory on Gravity

If items of mass one any impact of others, then mountains should have people orbiting them. Or the space shuttle in space should have the astronauts orbiting it. Of course, that’s just the tip of the gravity myth. Think about it. Scientists want us to believe that the sun has a gravitation pull strong enough to keep a planet like neptune or pluto in orbit, but then it’s not strong enough to keep the moon in orbit? Why is that?

What I believe is going on here is this: These objects in space have yet to receive mans touch, and thus have no sin to weigh them down. This isn’t the case for earth, where we see the impact of transfered sin to material objects. The more sin, the heavier something is.

Sin is a man-made object, with a trademark symbol attatched. Space and time are only figments of human misconception, they do not exist because nothing exists. This is all a dream, of a dream.
