Evertime I see Wonder Woman, I get hungry for a good Chinese buffet.

Those metallic cones over each breast just looks like Woks to me!

Most probably true. Conservation of rotational energy and momentum (a
couple of those basic laws of physics, don'tcha know) makes the
rotational speed stay pretty much the same before and after a quake,
even when Earth rings like a bell.

I would love to find out if anyone noted any disruptions in the
geomagnetic field or ionosphere (via shortwave anomalies or any other
method) just prior to the quake. This theory has been floating about
for awhile now, and it would be great to know. Coming close on the
heels of the *pretty big* south ocean quake near New Zealand, there
could have been two disruptions in short order.

Ha! Nope - the popular comics when I was a pre-teen were
Archie, Richie-Rich, etc. Well, there *was* "Mad Magazine".

I was reminded of the joke about Superman zooming down to
ravage (at Superman Speed) what he thought was Wonder-Woman,
sun-bathing in the nude, legs spread and arms behind her head.
What he didn't count on was that the Invisible Man was with
Wonder Woman at the time.

If you've never heard it (I thought everyone had) you can
imagine the punch-line...

Yep I heard it before and I think it was in one of those comics. If mikes
suit is real? I'm sure he'll have a great time :)

I only use it for the BENEFIT of mankind, not cheap sexual adventurism
or exploitation...that episode with Margaret Trudeau was a complete
accident, as were Halle Berry, Deborah Harry, Catherine Bach, Bridget
Bardot, Ingrid Berman and countless others.

I've since suspended ALL night flights, my night vision is obviously
NOT what it should be. Neither is my super strength. Ever tried flying
home eight thousand miles after one of these little accidents?

Don't loose sight of the fact your all talking about three micro seconds
being lost....
i don't think the survivors if this natural catastrophe will be thinking of
three micro seconds being lost what about the thousands of lives that have
been lost who care,s about three micro seconds..

It was a legitimate question, and did nothing to add or detract with regards to
the suffering currently being felt in the earthquake/tsunami affected area.

Grab those meds, and hang on tight.

According to some reports, the day might have been shortened by 3

microseconds.


How far does a HF radio signal travel in 3 microseconds?

A little over half a mile, if my math is right.
