Friday humour - December 20, 2002
From Davo at bluehaze:
Ho Ho Ho and Yo!
Christmas time is nearly here and all is well with the world - well maybe
not - but it is the season to be jolly.
I expect this will be the last Friday Humour for this year so may Tony
myself and all the little munchkins at Bluehaze wish you a Merry Christmas
and a prosperous New Year.

First up this week - an oldie from Guru Ron ...
THOUGHTS ON SANTA
There are approximately two billion children (persons under 18) in the
world. However, since Santa does not visit children of Muslim, Hindu, Jewish
or Buddhist (except maybe in Japan) religions, this reduces the workload for
Christmas night to 15% of the total, or 378 million (according to the
population reference bureau). At an average (census) rate of 3.5 children
per household, that comes to 108 million homes, presuming there is at least
one good child in each. Santa has about 31 hours of Christmas to work with,
thanks to the different time zones and the rotation of the earth, assuming
east to west (which seems logical). This works out to 967.7 visits per
second.
This is to say that for each Christian household with a good child, Santa
has around 1/1000th of a second to park the sleigh, hop out, jump down the
chimney, fill the stocking, distribute the remaining presents under the
tree, eat whatever snacks have been left for him, get back up the chimney,
jump into the sleigh and get onto the next house. Assuming that each of
these 108 million stops is evenly distributed around the earth (which, of
course, we know to be false, but will accept for the purposes of our
calculations), we are now talking about 0.78 miles per household; a total
trip of 75.5 million miles, not counting bathroom stops or breaks. This
means Santa's sleigh is moving at 650 miles per second -- 3,000 times the
speed of sound. For purposes of comparison, the fastest man made vehicle,
the Ulysses space probe, moves at a poky 27.4 miles per second, and a
conventional reindeer can run at 15 miles per hour.
The payload of the sleigh adds another interesting element. Assuming that
each child gets nothing more than a medium sized LEGO set (two pounds), the
sleigh is carrying over 500,000 tons, not counting Santa himself. On land, a
conventional reindeer can pull no more than 300 pounds. Even granting that
the "flying" reindeer can pull 10 times the normal amount, the job can't be
done with eight or even nine of them - Santa would need 360,000 of them.
This increases the payload, not counting the weight of the sleigh, another
54,000 tons, or roughly seven times the weight of the Queen Elizabeth (the
ship, not the monarch). 600,000 tons travelling at 650 miles per second
creates enormous air resistance - this would heat up the reindeer in the
same fashion as a spacecraft reentering the earth's atmosphere. The lead
pair of reindeer would adsorb 14.3 quintillion joules of energy per second
each. In short, they would burst into flames almost instantaneously,
exposing the reindeer behind them and creating deafening sonic booms in
their wake. The entire reindeer team would be vaporized within 4.26
thousandths of a second, or right about the time Santa reached the fifth
house on his trip.
Not that it matters, however, since Santa, as a result of accelerating from
a dead stop to 650 m. p. s. in .001 seconds, would be subjected to
acceleration forces of 17,000 g's. A 250 pound Santa (which seems
ludicrously slim) would be pinned to the back of the sleigh by 4,315,015
pounds of force, instantly crushing his bones and organs and reducing him to
a quivering blob of pink goo.
Therefore, if Santa did exist, he's dead now. Merry Christmas.

These from Electronics wiz Peter who says:
"Here's a couple of items for your consideration for Friday Humour. They're
probably more clever than funny, so don't feel obliged to use them. The
first one is from the guy who runs the Parkes Telescope visitor centre. He
insisted on sending it with a disclaimer of sorts, because he was worried
about it being taken the wrong way."
The meaning of CSIRO
Hi Jon, Peter This is the paragraph that I wrote in 1988. So much acrimony
had been already written about the changing nature of CSIRO, that I thought
a light hearted one would be appreciated - but in the end it seemed more
prudent not to submit it.
Bad press of recent years suggested that our scientists loftily thought they
belonged to the Commonwealth Scientific and Interesting Research
Organisation. After the McKinsey review, Careful Scrutiny Isolated the Real
Offenders. Now Cash Security Involves Reluctant Outsiders, as Chiefs Seek
Invigorated Resources Over and above the appropriations budget. This and the
unfortunate perception of a Completely Stuffed and Irreversibly Restructured
Organisation has lead to low morale. In the good ol' days, Competent
Scientists Investigated the Rational Order of Nature, knowing full well that
Classic Serendipity Increased Research Output.

Peter again: "The second one was passed on by a programmer friend who was
recently coerced into signing a fairly restrictive contractor agreement."

newsgroup that he's on.
WATER COOLING
Kramer and other members promoting water cooling- you have alot to answer I
decided this weekend to try and quieten my PC by following some other
members lead and going down the water cooling road. The fans on my PC were
really starting to drive me mad
The first thing that I did was to remove all the fans. The one on the
processor and graphics card were no problem but the one in the power unit
was a bugger to get out.
The most difficult part was sealing all the ventilitation openings in the PC
case with silicon. I also put silicon all around the joints on the PC case.
The smell of silicon was dreadful but when my wife complained I told her to
be patent as it will be worth it when we have a completely silent PC.
Because I had completely sealed the PC case the only opening near top was
the DVD drive. So I opened that and put the small hose I had purchased
specially for the job into the DVD drive as far as it would go. With what I
can only describe as great excitement and anticipation, I turned on the
water. It really is amazing just how long it took before the case was
complete full, and boy was it heavy. That didn't really bother me as I
didn't intend to be moving the PC anyway.
The big moment had arrived so I called in my wife and mother in law (who was
visiting) and I announced "prepare to hear nothing!" and flicked the switch
on the socket on the wall.
Before I could even press the power button on front of the PC, with a loud
bang, the whole place was plunged into darkness
I knew that it was only the tripswitch so I told my onlookers not to panic
and I ran out to the hall to turn the trip switch back on. But can u believe
it, it wouldn't stay on. After five attempts I decided to try unplugging the
PC and would you believe... yes the trip switch stayed on. My conclusion:
the PC must have in some way been causing the problem.
After about an hour of tries I finally decided to abandon the whole idea of
water cooling and emptied the water out of the PC, put back in the fans
(except the fan in the power unit, I had broken that one getting it out) and
tried the pc AGAIN. IT STILL CAUSED THE TRIP SWTICH TO BLOW!
My PC is completely shagged thanks to stupid suggestions that I got on this
forum. What the hell am I going to do now. I spent two hours last night with
a hair drier inside the PC case and it still trips the switch.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated
Conor
[some responses were]
This is a joke, yeah ?
You should have used ice-cream.
If this isn't a joke then I think someone has seriously got their wires
crossed on how to water-cool a PC.
Arrrggghhhh, stop it. I'm about to wet myself. Is it April 1st already?
Well I'm not laughing and neither would you if the PC that u spent almost a
full year putting together was wrecked

GOLF
I'm not really into golf, but some you just can't pass up...
A nun is sitting with her Mother Superior chatting. "I used some horrible
language this week and feel absolutely terrible about it."
"When did you use this awful language?" asks the Mother superior "Well, I
was golfing and hit an incredible drive that looked like it was going to go
over 280 yards, but it struck a phone line that is hanging over the fairway
and fell straight to the ground after going only about 100 yards."
"Is that when you swore?" "No, Mother," says the nun. "After that a squirrel
ran out of the bushes and grabbed my ball in its mouth and began to run
away."
"Is THAT when you swore?" asks the Mother superior again. "Well, no." says
the nun. "You see, as the squirrel was running, an eagle came down out of
the sky, grabbed the squirrel in his talons and began to fly away!"
"IS THAT when you swore?" asks the amazed Mother Superior. "No, not yet. As
the eagle carried the squirrel away in its claws, it flew near the green and
the squirrel dropped my ball."
"Did you swear THEN?" asked Mother Superior, becoming impatient. "No,
because the ball fell on a big rock, bounced over the sand trap, rolled onto
the green and stopped about six inches from the hole."
The two nuns were silent for a moment. Then the Mother Superior sighed and
said, "You missed the fucking putt, didn't you?"

INCENTIVATION
One day a 12 year old boy was walking down the street when a car pulled up
beside him and wound down its window.
"I'll give you a bag of lollies if you get in the car" said the driver.
"No way, get stuffed!" replied the boy.
"How about a bag of lollies and 10 bucks" the driver asked.
"I said no way" replied the boy.
"What about a bag of lollies and 50 bucks?" asked the driver.
"No, I'm not getting in the car." answered the boy.
"Okay, I'll give you a bag of lollies and $100" the driver offered.
"No!" replied the boy. "What will it take to get you in the car?" asked the
driver.
The boy replied: "Listen Dad, you bought the bloody Volvo, you live with
it!"

10 REASONS WHY GOD CREATED EVE
10. God worried that Adam would be lost in the Garden of Eden because he
wouldn't ask for directions.
9. God knew that someday Adam would need someone to hand him the TV remote.
(Parenthetically, it has been noted that men don't want to see what's ON TV;
they want to see WHAT ELSE is on.)
8. God knew that Adam would never make a doctor's appointment.
7. God knew that when Adam's fig leaf wore out, he would never buy a new one
for himself.
6. God knew that Adam would not remember to take out the garbage.
5. God wanted man to be fruitful and multiply, but he knew Adam would never
be able to handle labor pains and childbirth.
4. As "keeper of the garden," Adam would need help in finding his tools.
3. Adam needed someone to blame for the Apple Incident, and for anything
else that was really his fault.
2. As the Bible says: "It is not good for man to be alone."
1. God stepped back, looked at Adam, and declared: "I can do better than
that."

An oldie but goodie from British Knickers
NOT ROCKET SCIENCE.
Scientists at the Canadian Research Facility built a gun specifically to
launch dead chickens at the windshields of airline and military jets, all
travelling at maximum velocity. The idea is to test the strength of the
windshields by simulating frequent collisions with airborne fowl.
NASA engineers heard about the gun and were eager to test it on the
windshields of their new high speed trains.
Arrangements were made, and a gun was sent to the NASA engineers. When the
gun was fired, the engineers stood shocked as the chicken hurled out of the
barrel, crashed into the shatterproof shield, smashed it to smithereens,
blasted through the control console, snapped the engineer's backrest in two
and embedded itself in the back wall of the cabin, like an arrow shot from a
bow.
The horrified Americans sent the Canadian Research Facility the disastrous
results of the experiment, along with the designs of the windshield and
begged the Canadian scientists for suggestions.
The Canadian Research Facility responded with a one-line memo:
"Defrost the chicken"

VINYL RULES!
Breaking News In The Fight Against Audio Piracy!!!
Music Industry Unveils New Piracy-Proof Format: A Black, Plastic Disc With
Grooves On It
Music bosses have unveiled a revolutionary new recording format that they
hope will help win the war on illegal file sharing which is thought to be
costing the industry millions of dollars in lost revenue.
Nicknamed the 'Record', the new format takes the form of a black, vinyl disc
measuring 12 inches in diameter, which must be played on a specially
designed 'turntable'.
"We can state with absolute certainty that no computer in the world can
access the data on this disc," said spokesman Brett Campbell. "We are also
confident that no-one is going to be able to produce pirate copies in this
format without going to a heck of a lot of trouble. This is without doubt
the best anti-piracy invention the music industry has ever seen."
As part of the invention's rigorous testing process, the designers gave some
discs to a group of teenage computer experts who regularly use file swapping
software such as Limewire and gnutella and who admit to pirating music CDs.
Despite several days of trying, none of them were able to hack into the
disc's code or access any of the music files contained within it.
"It's like, really big and stuff," said Doug Flamboise, one of the testers.
"I couldn't get it into any of my drives. I mean, what format is it? Is it,
like, from France or something?"
Invention: Teenage computer hackers struggled to access the new disc.
In the new format, raw audio data in the form of music is encoded by
physically etching grooves onto the vinyl disc. The sound is thus translated
into variations on the disc's surface in a process that industry insiders
are describing as 'completely revolutionary' and 'stunningly clever.'
To decode the data stored on the disc, the listener must use a special
player which contains a 'needle' that runs along the grooves on the record
surface, reading the indentations and transforming the movements back into
audio that can be fed through loudspeakers.
Even Shawn Fanning, the man who invented Napster, admits the new format will
make file swapping much more difficult. "I've never seen anything like
this," he told reporters. "How does it work?"
Pirates: Their days are numbered.
As rumours that a Taiwanese company has been secretly developing a 12 inch
wide, turntable -driven, needle-based, firewire drive remain unconfirmed, it
would appear that the music industry may, at last, have found the
pirate-proof format it has long been searching for.

SANTA'S REINDEERS
Did you know...
While both male and female reindeer grow antlers in the summer each year,
according to the Alaska Department of Fish and Game, male reindeer drop
their antlers at the beginning of winter, usually late November to
mid-December. Female reindeer retain their antlers until after they give
birth in the spring.
Therefore, according to every historical rendition depicting Santa's
reindeer, every single one of them, from Rudolph to Blitzen - had to be a
girl.
We should've known. Only women would be able to drag a fat-ass man in a red
velvet suit all around the world in one night and not get lost.

CHRISTMAS WISHES
It is Christmas Eve, and this chap is on a rooftop about to jump off. His
wife is leaving him for another man, he has lost his job and he owes
thousands of dollars to the bank.
Just as he finishes his prayers and closes his eyes, ready to jump, Father
Christmas taps him on the shoulder. "Are you OK?" asks Father Christmas.
The man explains why he is so miserable and then gets ready to jump.
"Stop !" shouts Father Christmas. "It is Christmas, I will grant you three
wishes to solve your problems on the understanding that you will grant me a
small favour in return!"
"Would you ?" the man replies. "That would be wonderful!! Thank you, thank
you !"
Father Christmas promises him that "You shall go home in 1 hour and your
wife will be dressed in her sexiest underwear, begging for forgiveness and
longing for your return, she will have no recollection of her new boyfriend.
You shall go into work tomorrow, sit at your desk and continue with your
work. Your salary will have increased by 50%. Also, nobody will have any
recollection of your sacking. And you shall go to your bank and you will be
ten thousand pounds in credit - you will have no outstanding bills.
"Oh thank you, thank you !" says the man. "What is it that I can do for
you?"
Father Christmas asks the man to drop his pants and bend over. After a quite
brutal rogering, which made his eyes water a little, Father Christmas asks
the man how old he is.

"Ho Ho Ho, You're a bit old to believe in Father Christmas aren't you!"?
chuckled the jolly fat gay bastard, "Merry Christmas!!"
