Ways the SMART People Handle A Fire:( and why I luv mathematicians)

Physics Engineers: Calculating the Angle and Force the jet of water has to be fired before using a hard object to hit the fire hydrant, to release the water. Spends 30 minutes

Chemistry Engineers: Invent a compound that is able to extinguish all forms of fire, but will test it on other fires and making improvements before using. Spends 30 months

Mathematicians: Using Mathematical Induction, prove that the raging fire does not exist. Spends 30 years.

To me, Prostitutes are like Power Rangers:

-their make-up is red, blue, yellow, green, pink
-they get really dangerous when they stick together
-the cost of their "equipment" seems really low for them to keep using it
-if the going gets tough they just keep moaning
-seem to have no other life
-tend to drag the intros, before performing a really quick blow
-one blow of them and you can be sure yr dead meat
-target always screams NO!!! when they're sword/claw gets chopped off
-true identities are usually kept secret from the public
-always having to enter a red-zone before unleashing their prowess
-their work seems never-ending
-seem to be great friends with no other friends
-come from china (just to let you know most power ranger toys are made in china)
-targets look really old/ fossilic

Today, just for a nice-to-know, I've decided to quote some figures for the little children( including my younger sister) to show that theres no such thing as santa claus:)

After much research, we present the annual aeronautical engineers report on the theory of Santa:
No known species of reindeer can fly. BUT there are 300,000 species of living organisms yet to be classified, and while most of these are insects and germs, this does not COMPLETELY rule out flying reindeer, which only Santa has ever seen.
There are 2 billion children (persons under 18) in the world. BUT since Santa doesn't (appear) to handle the Muslim, Hindu, Jewish & Buddhist children, that reduces the workload to 15% of the total -378 million according to Population Reference Bureau. At an average (census) rate of 3.5 children per household, that's 91.8 million homes. One presumes that there's at least one good child in each.
Santa has 31 hours of Christmas to work with. This is due to the different time zones and the rotation of the earth, assuming he travels east to west (which seems logical). This works out to 822.6 visits/second. That is to say that for each Christian household with good children, Santa has .001 second to park, hop out of the sleigh, jump down the chimney, fill the stockings, distribute the remaining presents under the tree, eat whatever snacks have been left, get back up the chimney, get back into the sleigh and move on to the next house.
Assuming that each of these 91.8 million stops are evenly distributed around the earth (which, of course, we know to be false but for the purposes of our calculations we will accept), we are now talking about .78 miles/household, a total trip of 75.5 million miles; not counting stops to do what most of us do at lease once every 31 hours, plus eating etc. So Santa's sleigh must be moving at 650 miles/second, 3,000 times the speed of sound. For purposes of comparison, the fastest man-made vehicle on earth, the Ulysses space probe, moves at a pokey 27.4 miles/second. A conventional reindeer can run, tops, 15 miles/hour.
If every one of the 91.8 million homes with good children were to put out a single chocolate chip cookie and an 8 ounce glass of 2% milk, the total calories (needless to say other vitamins and minerals) would be approximately 225 calories (100 for the cookie, give or take, and 125 for the milk, give or take). Multiplying the number of calories per house by the number of homes (225 x 91.8 x 1000000), we get the total number of calories Santa consumes that night, which is 20,655,000,000 calories. To break it down further, 1 pound is equal to 3500 calories. Dividing our total number of calories by the number of calories in a pound (20655000000 / 3500) and we get the number of pounds Santa gains, 5901428.6, which is 2950.7 tons.
The payload on the sleigh adds another interesting element. Assuming that each child gets nothing more than a medium-sized Lego set (2 lb.), the sleigh is carrying 321,300 tons, not counting Santa, who is invariably described as overweight. On land, conventional reindeer can pull no more than 300lb. Even granting that "flying reindeer" (see #1) can pull 10 TIMES the normal amount, we cannot do the job with 8, or even 9, reindeer. We need 214,200. This increases the payload - not counting the weight of the sleigh - to 353,430 tons. This is four times the weight of the ocean-liner Queen Elizabeth.
353,000 tons traveling at 650 miles/second creates enormous air resistance. This will heat the reindeer up in the same fashion as a spacecraft reentering the earth's atmosphere. The lead pair of reindeer will absorb 14.3 QUINTILLION joules of energy. Per second. Each. In short, they will burst into flame almost instantaneously, exposing the reindeer behind them and create deafening sonic booms in their wake. The entire reindeer team will be vaporized within .00426 of a second. Meanwhile, Santa, will be subjected to centrifugal forces 17,500.06 times greater than gravity. A 250 lb. Santa, being very conservative in terms of guessing Santa's weight, would be pinned to the back of his sleigh by 4,315,015 lb. of force. If Santa ever DID deliver presents on Christmas Eve, he's dead now.
A Merry Christmas to one and all!!

So she just had to vent her frustrations and pretend that apples were Adam's balls."

Dont blame me for being racist: My pupils are just too black and cannot stand black any further.
I dont hate people: Im just on the other side of the mind wall between me and them
I dont sit on the fence: I draw the line

"Its no use crying over split milk, its more fulfilling to beat the person who caused it, then force him to buy more milk for you."

When something bad happens because of someone else, dont bother crying or mourning over it. It wont affect him. Instead, do something more satisfying and beat the hell out ofthe culprit before making sure he does the job right the second time round.

Seeing Colors (Chang Hao)

2006-08-28T22:19:00.000+08:00

We are taught from young that black = black , orange = orange. Normally that is quite an absurd statement to say since you won't teach your youngsters that black is white and orange is green, not unless you are on crack or something.

But. What if everyone's eyes see the same colors differently? A person may see red but grow up being taught the color is green and vice versa. Another person may see the red and be taught its yellow. But both of them won't be wrong since they see it as the 'actual color' although they see it as differently colored.

Anyway to me the sky is blue, what do the others see it as?

" You are a beautiful, elegant, successful, inspiring, eye pleasing, wonderful, flamboyant, glitzy, luxurious, pleasantly unpredictable and high-class... Bitch"

Laughter (chang hao)

2006-08-06T00:07:00.000+08:00

what chicken soup is to the human body, what laughter is to the human soul. I stolen this off my friend's msn nick, so i'm not really sure why chicken soup is so important espcially when you have tonics like bird's nest and ginseng. But thats another train of thought which should be left for another day.

I like laughter. To me laughter is quite important since it tells me when someone someone is really happy. Anyone can put on a fake and convincing smile but nothing can match real laughter that comes from the heart. Even if the person is some kind of super villian that goes mwahahah or hehehe you know he/she is geuninely happy since something has gone well like having bought some bloodthirsty sharks for thier moat or something.

A world without laughter would suck seriously. In a place where you are too frightened to laugh, what joy is there in continuing on farther?

Loneliness (Chang Hao)

2006-07-22T21:54:00.000+08:00

A thousand roads I may walk
A thousand souls I may find
Yet which will walk with me
Who among them shares my thoughts
Who will catch me as i fall into emptiness
which will i leap with into the unknown?

So yeah this is a poem about loneliness i wrote on a fine sunny afternoon. Loneliness is such a scary emotion, it seems to be the only one you face by yourself. How does one survive without a true soul mate to share your innermost thoughts with?

Technology is so wonderful! ( Chang Hao )

2006-07-10T22:51:00.000+08:00

You know i was just looking through my handphone the other day and i found out a few suprises about it i never knew it had heh heh. Like the incredibly useful english-chinese dictionary that saved my life in chinese compo today. And the camera, 4x optic zoom!! Plus the Gee! Internet Service. (GEE! i never knew i could surf the web with my phone!)

Anyway the point i'm trying to make here is that technology is so advanced nowadays. 3G phones with msn, computers that can watch Tv, Tvs that can watch computers! Now cameras are no longer cameras, watches are no longer watches by thier own.

I wonder what will happen in the much later future...Chang hao won't be Chang Hao and James won't be James anymore. Then we can buy memory sticks and implant into our own bodies and download all the software we need. Play DotA in classroom or watch movie in the inside of your head.

My 1st post (Chang Hao)

2006-07-06T21:53:00.000+08:00

Hihi welcome to the wonderful world of Thots We Think co-blogged by me and my friend James. In this blog we do all the thinking that no one ever really ponders about. Like "does a falling tree in the forest make a sound when there is no one to hear it" or "Is truth beauty and beauty truth?" .

Today is my 1st post made by chang hao as you might already have guessed from the title. So...what does one write for the 1st post? This blog was never really supposed to be about our own lives so i can't really start by saying my life sucks, although james seem to have already broken the rule already judging from the soccer post. Maybe its philosopical to him or something. Divine intervention or whatever you choose to call it.

Anyway on to the main topic which is very important which is my 1st post. A blog is supposedly a online diary but a diary is supposed to hold your private thoughts. But when you blog you let others read your thoughts which is contradictory and oxymoronic yes?

"Every drop in the ocean makes up the sea... Every bit counts"

Mother Theresa

I just couldn't agree more... watching the way those damned Italians( I don't like them) scored their utmost important goal.. withn the final minutes of the game. That moment however was destroyed just because a SMALL DAMN MOSQUITO BIT ME... just at the point where the goal was scored... damn that mosquito. I may have slapped and killed it 5 times, but it has achieved its goal of depriving me of that long anticipated excitement of that soccer match. I fucking hate mosquitos.. hopefully this game will be BETTER, even if its JUST A BIT. Ill make sure no more fucked up mosquitos get in my way( bought insecticide). DIE mosquitos.

"The opposite of love is not hate, it's indifference.
The opposite of art is not ugliness, it's indifference.
The opposite of faith is not heresy, it's indifference.
And the opposite of life is not death, it's indifference."

Elie Wiesel

Indifference, it is a double edged sword. Although it helps one in understanding the world just a bit more, too much of it could ruin a person's life. So the key is never to be indifferent, yet remain non chalent about certain issues.
