All I can say is wow :o

I can't comment...

:frog::frog::frog:

It's gone now.

I bet she mad him take it down... :Ange09:

try this one!

he better not ask her , who's buried in grant's tomb? :roll:

Cuz i'm a blond. Ya yaa ya..........

Imagine the outcome if he asked her the same question using kmh. I think her head might explode:wee:

1. Posted to Facebook... natch. Too.... something not to share.
   
   
2. At some point, it's the equivalent of watching an educational train wreck.
   
   
3. My respect for the patience of teachers the world over (which was already pretty high) has just redlined.
   
   
4. Crikey, I know that reading is fundamental, but I expect William Oughtred & Josip Belušić are collectively rolling over and sobbing in their graves.
   
   
5. Ding, ding, ding. I thinking we have a contender for the 2012 Peroxide Poster Girl.
   

ATB,

Sam I saw your post on FB. This guy is either a saint or and idiot. He married her, I couldn't be in the same car with her. With all the explaining he tried she still said he was wrong. Arm candy I suppose. Or maybe ballast for a buggy on a windy day!

....this guy has . This young women doesn't need to know anything but just be kind and not an A** like her husband.

Don't have kids. The guy will just make the kids feel dumb instead of simply teaching them. Respect your wife!

He's no saint Rocfighter!

sad about education we all will pay for that!

another example of bliss. he should be more respectful of her lack of talent.

we tend to bond to those with similar aptitude, the video actually demonstrates quite a bit more about him than her.

How can people make it through life without a basic understanding of how things work? I take it for granted that other people have things like this worked out in their head. What else that is so basic, do the blissful people not understand? These people drive around us................ And VOTE!

Houston ... we have a problem

Yep, he married her, but is still grinning throughout!

So... this leads me to one of three conclusions

A) His young blonde bride has other, uh, "charms" that make up for the fuzzy logic
B) He's realizing that he'll potentially make a fortune on her from the viral video...(maybe even get on Leno!)
C) BOTH! :karate:

I thought that second video was hilarious, first one is gone as stated above. It was a little mean to video it and post it on youtube/facebook but still hilarious. And skim, he was trying to teach her, she simply didn't get it.

Darn Utube stalled up and I never did get the answer . ;-)

wow

Please tell me that was faked.....so sad.

She lost him with the tyre pressures effecting MPG. Without fuel in the tank you ain't going nowhere in an hour. :D

Hey now, I just had that same conversation with Brian Holegate right before he headed down to the lake bed to break the speed record.....I am glad he took my advice on getting some GPS units!!!


(Just kidding of course, but that's funny I don't care who ya are!)

Technically..... it is anywhere between 1hour and infinity

If you want to get really complicated... in a straight line, that is 80 miles long, traveling 80mph will yield 1 hour travel time.... however if, for example, you go the other way around the planet, to a point 80 miles away from the original start.... you have taken WAY longer than 1 hour to travel 80 miles, going 80mph.... ya follow?

lol im bored here ya go:
So you start on the equator... and want to know how long it will take you to travel 80 miles west of your start point (lets call it A).. but you being a crazy kiter, say "hell lets go east... just to mess with the blond girls!!"

So the circumference of the earth at the equator is 24,901.55 miles... minus the 80 miles to your destination (B!) is 24,821.55... traveling at 80mph in a straight line, east (not accounting for elevation change) would take 310.26 hours to travel 80 miles to your destination, A :D (or just shy of 13 days... if we dont hafta stop for bathroom breaks )



OR!!!!!




You have a freaking rocket!! (you rule) that only goes 80mph (Damnit) ... (Disregard Earth's gravitational pull for this one....) theoretically you could blast off, with the intent of landing at your destination 80 miles away... BUT NOOOOO!!! you just go up and out, hoping to hit a wormhole that happens to deposit you at exactly 80 miles away from your start point... it is this "example" where it could take an infinite amount of time to reach a destination 80 miles away... while traveling 80mph :D






Read that to her and see what happens.... if "kph" would pop her head, my post could take out her family tree

Drewculous, you are my new hero...don't let it go to your head though, my last hero was a baby sloth (he grabbed his own leg and fell out of a tree)...do you think she does her own taxes?

Damn....here I just thought that the video was kinda funny. Never considered a rocket.

Drew- Love it

OK Drew- you've got the creative juices flowing...

So we have to measure our speed relative to something right? If you're airborne you're instruments will display your "air speed" (speed relative to the air you are moving through). So let's say you're in an ultralight craft traveling due West at 80mph airspeed; but with a 15mph headwind :evil:

Now you're VMG (Velocity Made Good) relative to the ground is only 65mph, which means it would take you roughly 1hr14minutes :D

I can see her reaction to that! "Don't you know anything? It would get there faster! Everyone knows planes fly faster than cars!!"

Nice mike! A little more reasonable than mine... But the 1hour to infinity still stands... Unless.... Ok ok... Throw the one hour thing out the window

If we follow the whole rocket wormhole thing... Then the theory of blackhole manipulation isnt to far off... You could create a wormhole at point A and one at point B (80 miles apart), bend space time until the points are one, then simply release the points and unfold space time... you now traveled 80 miles instantly... So to travel from A to B, 80 miles apart, going 80 miles an hour could take "0" time, to infinite time... (See "Event Horizon" they explain it pretty well with a piece of paper)




Omg! On some level, if my theory is correct.... I just proved the blond correct!
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

Drew- nice revision! Yes, warping space through a 4th dimension could produce instantaneous travel!

...how 'bout this?


According to Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity time slows down for a traveler relative to the time experienced by the people here on Earth (stationary in our frame of reference).

So let's say you need to meet some friends at a point 80miles away at 1PM, and it's currently 12PM. To make it interesting, let's say that instead of driving directly there you hop into a borrowed alien spaceship.

The plan is to fly there at a constant rate of 80mph, arriving exactly 1hr later. BUT upon entering the ship you accidentally brush up against the "Ludicrous Speed" button, and are launched into space travelling at .9 times the speed of light.

After the initial shock of leaving Earth behind :puzzled: you eventually get your bearings and turn around to head back to the blue marble and your rendezvous point. To your delight you managed to turn around and start heading back exactly 40 minutes into your trip, so you're figuring no one will even know you messed up, since you'll still make your initial ETA of 1PM.

After another 40 minutes has elapsed you arrive right on schedule at your intended destination, but there's a problem- your friends have all left! You check your watch and it reads 1PM on the nose- but then you look up at a nearby clock tower and it reads 2:17PM. (at .9 the speed of light time is dilated by a factor of roughly 2.29 for the traveler)

So that's 80 miles, at 167,400 miles per second, in just over 2 1/4 hours! :bigok:

But this might be off a little depending on the air in the tires
