B.C. by Mastroianni and Hart for March 27, 2013

Throw the book at him.

Pretty lightweight book. Not even a quarter of a pound. Certainly not heavy enough to be called a “tome”.

Crackers?

That metric system makes it tough to buy a footlong hotdog. I’ll have a 30.48 centimeter long hot dog please.

i’ll give you four gramps and an uncle bob

Obviously not a heavy reader!

Its black and white and red all over.

What part of a key is that…?

The United States— home of metric money, but nothing else metric.

Actually, the US isn’t behind in measurements, we’re just waiting for someone to come up with the next “bright idea.”Consider: The metric system was set up based on the distance from Equator to the North Pole – when NOBODY had yet gone to the North Pole! And why use the base 10 for counting? Base 8 is much easier to divide. Even computers have to be capable of counting to 16, and then downgrade to be capable of counting to 10. Just a thought.

Anyone interested in a book of Cycles to Hz conversion tables?

Henway? oh, about 2 pounds. Or 908 grams.

“How much is it?” “About 72 grams.”I wondered what unit of currency would replace the Clam when B.C. went metric.
