Subject: RE: BS: i have a life... From: GUEST Date: 29 Sep 06 - 11:57 PM The finest you say? No, no. The finest of ports must surely be Jacksonville, Florida. |

Subject: RE: BS: i have a life... From: JennyO Date: 29 Sep 06 - 09:24 AM It is indeed a wonderful thing to have the full complement of letters to play with. As long as I don't need too many question marks. There is a shortage of those caused by over-use by a certain fellow poster, who is not anonymous. Not that I am judging his worth or anything - perish the thought! |

Subject: RE: BS: i have a life... From: Paul Burke Date: 28 Sep 06 - 11:40 AM Without correcting for exactly when leap years fell, or for the change between Julian and Grgorian calendars, I make the dates January 1975 (1^9 seconds), May 105AD (1^9 minutes), February 112073BC (1^9 hours), about 2.7 million years ago (1^9 days). One billion inches woould take you round the world at 50 degrees latitude. A billion is a little under the estimated volume of the world's oceans in cubic kilometres. And if that seems a lot, don't forget that if the world were the size of a soccer ball, all the depth of the ocean would be a few thousands of an inch, it would just seem to have damp patches on the ever-so-smooth surface. Even Everest would be only a thousandth of an inch high. I must get a life too. Or a file. |

Subject: RE: BS: i have a life... From: Rapparee Date: 27 Sep 06 - 03:54 PM It wasn't a very good doghouse. In fact, it was a cardboard box that was all torn and ripped. A neighbor gave it to us so my little brother wouldn't have to sleep out in the snow. Of course, we took it away during the summer and our family lived in it. |
Subject: RE: BS: i have a life... From: GUEST Date: 27 Sep 06 - 03:48 PM We were so poor that on Christmas Day, if you didn't wake up with a hard-on, you had noting to play with for the whole X-mas season. |

Subject: RE: BS: i have a life... From: Rapparee Date: 27 Sep 06 - 03:42 PM We couldn't afford a dog either. So we painted our little brother black, told everyone he was a Labrador Retriever, and took him for walks and taught him to fetch. Naturally he had to live out in the doghouse, and he was in the Air Force before he knew what a fire hydrant was REALLY for. |

Subject: RE: BS: i have a life... From: MMario Date: 27 Sep 06 - 02:03 PM just the sort of stuff you would expect to find in a BS: thread, right? right! |
Subject: RE: BS: i have a life... From: Big Al Whittle Date: 27 Sep 06 - 02:02 PM have you found a way to transform these insights into a source of wealth? otherwise I fear, this knowledge may actually be without a use: devoid of function; without practical application for our species - try telling the parrots. For they are well known for feasting on titbits of random information, and occasionally they repeat the more emotive phrases, in the hope of striking up a conversation. |

Subject: RE: BS: i have a life... From: Midchuck Date: 27 Sep 06 - 01:51 PM If tarheel is in the UK and MMario in the USA, you're probably both right. A british billion is, I understand, a million millions. A US (and French!) billion is a thousand millions. Peter. |
Subject: RE: BS: i have a life... From: MMario Date: 27 Sep 06 - 01:34 PM a billion seconds ago it was 1975, not 1959. a billion minutes ago it was 1136 AD-- and to the best of my knowledge NO one claims Christ lived during that time. a billion hours ago there were already discernable political systems in china; carving was common, rope making, knot tying etc. |
