No trailer. But at anyrate, the answer depends on when the prisoners get their milk.

That doesn't make any sense either. *insert laugh smily here*

50? I'm going to guess it is a trick question...where's the trick? XD

Which have sex more times a day, a rabbit or you?

Yes, when the snail gets to the top, a crow eats it.

LMAO! I knew it!

Nope, stumbled on the fourth.

i got to 3. shit!

how do you make the color brown by mixing common colors of paint?

how do you make the color brown by mixing common colors of light?

you'll find the answer is VERY different to both of them.

[Wile E]

For paint, you mix the colors that are opposite on the color wheel. So, for example, yellow and purple, red and green, or blue and orange.

For light, I have no damn idea. lol.

[FordGT90Concept]

Light is red, green, blue. Brown is:
-150 red, 75 green, 0 blue
-two parts red, one part green, and no blue

Colors are red, yellow, blue. Brown is made from mixing the following colors:
-blue, green, orange, yellow

Nope, in paint it's definitely what I described. http://painting.about.com/b/2006/02/...-mix-brown.htm

What you described was the overly complicated way of doing it. lol.

[FordGT90Concept]

My bad. The colors I listed are actually complementary, triad, and analogous to brown.

I tried to tell a cop that, but he told me to shut up and stay put. Oh but then everything was just peachy when he came back with the ticket.

My question, How is it that when you get drunk, you play games incredibly well, get head shots and everything, yet you can't actually shoot a gun accurately? or stand well for that matter.

[Deusxmachina]

It's not actually a question, but one of my first thoughts on this topic went to a couple of the old Star Trek episodes where Kirk overloads a computer. Here's one:

I shall sterilize.
You must sterilize in case of error?
Error is inconsistent with my prime functions.
Sterilization is correction.
Everything that is in error must be sterilized.
There are no exceptions.
Nomad ...
I made an error in creating you.
The creation of perfection is no error.
I did not create perfection.
I created ... error.
Your data is faulty.
I am Nomad. I am perfect.
I am the Kirk, the creator?
You are the creator.
You are wrong!
Jackson Roykirk your creator is dead.
You have mistaken me for him.
You are in error.
You did not discover your mistake.
You have made two errors.
You are flawed and imperfect
and have not corrected by sterilization.
You have made three errors.
Error.
Error.
Error.
Examine.
You are flawed and imperfect!
Execute your prime function!
I shall analyze error.
Analyze ... error ...
Now! Get those antigravs on.
Examine ...
error.
Error.
Get rid of it now.
Scotty, the transporter room.
Analyze error ...
Error ...
Scotty, set the controls for deep space --
Faulty!
Nomad ...
you are imperfect!
Error.
Error.
Exercise your prime function.
Faulty!
Faulty!
Must ... sterilize.
Sterilize ...
Now!
Energizing.
My congratulations, Captain.
A dazzling display of logic.
You didn't think I had it in me?
No, sir.

Are you sure someone else near you isn't making all those shots and you just think they're yours?

337. Yes, I'm serious.

I can't defend this position, but I don't believe that some weaselly construct like space time is necessary to explain gravity, gravitational lensing, the precession of Mercury, etc. I think the construct just happens to be an imperfect mirror of what is really going on. For example, despite the humongous LIGO project, we have yet to find even a hint of gravity waves.

Also, if space-time really is absolutely essential for gravity to work correctly, then why do we need a Higgs boson to give matter mass? Relativity says mass distorts space-time, but why? Ooooo, that's a secret. OK, so since we're making shit up, just say that matter warps space-time and if you happen to find what causes gravity great, but you don't actually need it. Mass and matter are the same thing. The only difference is whether or not you have a Higgs field, and at this point, the existence of the field is still debatable. It's the consensus view, but it's not established fact AFAIK.

I think that would be a good way to establish an outer conceptual boundary for infinity. As recently as 15 years ago, Calc profs were saying that an infinity is an infinity and you can't measure them. But guess what, you can and some infinities are now recognized as being bigger than others. can't remember where I read it but it shouldn't be too hard to track down.

dividing by 0 would have to give you the biggest possible infinity with a rate of increase that is beyond massively exponential. It would be perfectly vertical.

Topologically, socks are closed tubes. These have very special properties that are not understood. Vacuum energy in the vicinity of such a structure is disrupted and that causes aberrations in the expansion of space-time. In other words, it's like warp drive but on a smaller scale. The other socks will turn up eventually in an area determined by the thermal energy of the structure and the third integral of the Wisk wave function.

I'm a gremlin so yes.
