What sporting activity have you never tried but always wanted to?

To be honest I'm fat and rarely do sports (playin SK!), but when I do I only do ones that I'm familiar with, so I don't have many other sports that Iv'e heard of, but maybe I'd like to try all the sports out there if I had the time, money, patience and physical ability o___o

ME: Why, hello, dear sir. My name is [Insert Name]. May I ask what you are doing with a mere shovel?
Bear: I'm an undertaker. May I take your size? Hmmm... *grumble* *mumble*

Later, he produced a coffin of my size.

Question: Why is that bear holding a shovel?

Answer:
One morning I woke up to the sound of growling, which caused me to sit up and be greeted with the horrid, salivating face of...

My dog.

I then decided that it had to stop climbing onto my bed, so after a quick shower and breakfast I put Buddy on a leash and walked him to the neighbourhood obedience school. However, on the way there I was attacked by a ferocious brown beast-

-A cat.

Deciding to do society a favour and reducing the amount of stray cats in the area, I resolved to get the cat neutered after dropping Buddy at the obedience school. But as I walked, I noticed the shape of a slumbering, pained and aggressive predator...

A pigeon with a broken wing.

So then I decided to take it home to nurse back to health after dropping the cat off at the vet, and so I went about the day without anymore distractions until...

I came home.

The pigeon I was carrying in my arms suddenly broke out into a series of violent spasms before finally detaching every part of its body to reveal an intriguing mechanical device. An unbelievably loud voice then boomed from the tiny speakers on the gadget, warning me about unbelievable things:
Such as a secret terrorist society that asks for random animals before giving away information, about how they had planted bombs all around town, about a certain contact that could assist me and about how I was going to save my country.

I wasted no time in calling the contact stated, and was answered in a single, reassuring grunt. But it did not reassure me at all. The device started to talk about a single bomb buried in an unknown location that would activate all the other bombs in half an hour. It stated that a terrorist with knowledge of the bomb's location was located at the same vet I was at earlier in the day.

I immediately rushed to the vet, but as I was about to enter the building, a man came up to me and asked for a dog. I immediately thought about the terrorist group, and as much as it pained me, ran to the obedience school. I was going to trade Buddy for the lives of thousands of people.

As the dark, seasoned building loomed before me, I hesitated. Was it worth it? Was keeping a best friend worth letting familes tear apart and seeing the streets turn red with the blood of my bretheren? That was a selfish decision, and I knew what was the right thing to do. I ran inside, snatched Buddy away and dashed back to the vet. I shoved my dog into the man's arms, barely holding back my tears as I listened to him speak about the location of the bomb.

What I heard immediately turned my sorrow into shock. The bomb was buried in the garden...

Of my house.

Sprinting back home, images of what could happen flashed in my mind. I saw scenarios of thousands of dead strewn accross the streets like some sick piece of art. I would not allow that to happen-Especially now that i knew that the location of the bomb was in my tiny one metre by one metre garden.

When I arrived at my house, I darted into my garden and looked at my watch. I had only five minutes left to find the bomb, so while I started to dig i thought about two things. First of all, I regretted not buying a new shovel. Secondly, how the heck was a bomb placed in my own garden without me knowing? But those thoughts did not matter. There was absolutely no way I was going to dig a bomb out of the ground in time with just my bare hands. I slumped to the ground, weary and defeated.

That was when salvation arrived. My contact had come, and with his muscular build, powerful arms and a shovel, he effortlessly scooped and tossed away huge mounds of dirt like they were grains of rice being thrown off a plate. After a short period of time I spotted a metallic glint burried under a sheet of dirt. The bomb was in sight!

The movies always made it look like deactivating bombs required a long and stressful proccess, but this bomb was not so. Either its maker was an idiot, or the terrorist were just too paranoid to allow a bomb to be made without a simple button to deactivate it. Anyhow, the deactivating the bomb was quick and easy. I turned to my contact and thanked him formally and sincerely. Once again, he responded with a single, reassuring grunt and left.

I looked at him as he walked away, shovel resting on his right shoulder. If I was not so tired I would have thanked him profusely. He had decided to help me in a problem that did not concern him, and had helped save the lives of many. For that, I saluted him, watching him stride away, the setting sun masking his features and making him a simple silhouette.

And that is why that bear is holding a shovel.

Question: When is the perfect time to drop an egg off a bridge?

Answer: One does not simply drop an egg off a bridge! It requires careful planning, consideration and authority.

First of all, consult with your neighbourhood Chicken dictator. You can easily find him at the back of the gorcery store.

Secondly, join his army of malnourished chickens and rise to the rank of Sergeant.

Thirdly, lead your squad into rebellion against the Chicken dictator!

Fourthly, set up an area for sniping at the bridge.

Lastly, as the Chicken dictator is happily trotting over to the other side of the bridge...
OPEN FIRE AND SAVE YOUR COUNTRY!!!

And that is the perfect time to drop an egg off a bridge.

Question 06/06/12 When is

Question 06/06/12

When is the perfect time to drop an egg off a bridge?

There are several possible answers for this question.

1) There is no perfect time for dropping an egg off a bridge. See, if there was a perfect time, then everyone was use that time to drop an egg of a bridge. The bridge would become crowded up, and people would suffocate/fall off the bridge/get splattered by egg guts. Then it wouldn't be perfect anymore.

2) When a boat floats under the bridge, a boat containing the members of 'People-allergic-to-eggs annonymous.', and a team of scientists with some machine that makes food grow to end world hunger. SImply drop the egg into the machine, watch it explode, grow, and engulf the entire waterway with egg yolk and white. Then watch the allergice people puff up, all other boats to become plugged up in the gooey mess, have fun watching people trying to swim when the water suddenly becomes saturated with egg, etc, etc. Enjoy the chaos. BONUS: Wait for a day when it's hot enough to fry an egg anywhere, including on the water. Scrambled eggs, anyone? We've got enough to serve 2...thousand million billion jillion wintrillion.

3) On December 21, 2012. When you drop eggs on someone's head that day, they'll think that the apocalypse will be a rain of eggs.

4) Whenever you somehow get an ostrich egg. Those things are just made for throwing off bridges and onto someone's head.

Have fun! >:D

Question: What would happen if the world stopped spinning?

Answer: This is a complicated question requiring a complex and elaborate...

Poem.

If our plane of existence stopped in its place
The competitors of life would stop their race
There is no doubt that all would crumble
To kneel down in terror, to tremble

As the Sun and Moon abrubtly halt
And even if we play the game of fault
Panic ensues in our realm of fear
We will still lose all we hold dear

So what would we do in our chaotic bind
Not band together or protect our own kind
Break bonds, wage wars and cry
And watch restlessly as the world dies

All looks bleak in this potential armageddon
But this apocalypse, we can abandon
Because there is no need for this new beginning
I am just saying what would happen if the world stopped spinning

What would happen if the world stopped spinning?

First up everyone would become dizzy and everyone will roam the streets like a mob of zombies banging into each other and otherwise falling over.

Secondly all the beaches in the world would be wave-less and that would start riots since waves are proven to be extremly calming ;D

Lastly there would be a great war between the cool kid faction (residing in the dark side of the world) and the Bakin Boys faction (residing in the hot side of the world) over the precious neutral lands!

Question 06/07/12

What would happen if the world stopped spinning? (Woot! Science question! Get your eye glasses...)

First, we must ignore the unknown and unlikely variables of the reasoning behind why the Earth had stopped rotating upon it's axis, which could be lead to multiple infinite possibilities (Something hit Earth, a Geomagnetic force overpowers the force of rotation.) The Earth rotates, because of a Gravitational force created at the beginning of our Solar system, when the cloud of gas and various other particles slowly collapsed in on itself, in a spiraling motion, which led to the origins of the sun. Other periodic elements soon followed the same process, orbiting the sun, due to the massive gravitational field the Sun exists with due to its considerable relative mass. These clouds formed planets, and after a few mishaps (planet between Mars and Jupiter got flung out of the Solar System knocking Uranus on its side, Earth gets hit by giant foreign space object, later forming Moon) The general Solar System we see today formed. We know that our we've been around for a few billion years (around 4) and in that time, the original force of kinetic energy produced by the collapse of gases to form the Sun and the impact of the object that is now our moon, has weakened slightly, as resulting in the slow down of the planetary rotation. Millions of years ago (Around 600 million), the Earth's full rotation on its geographic axis was 21 hours, roughly, and has now slowed down to 24. So, using this knowledge, we estimate, that eventually, either the force is gone and that the Earth has stopped rotating, we'd be referring to the Earth being pulled into the inner gravitational field of the Sun, and being incinerated due to the natural way stars live, in which they eventually grow fat and then explode (like humans). But then we say that spontaneously, the Earth was to halt it's natural rotation, as to no cause, the consequences would most likely be as follows, due to my limited knowledge and no proven research.
The days would stop, as the Earth no longer rotates, so that one side will be facing away from the Sun in the shadow, and the other facing towards the Sun. As the days stop, the seasons will take over. As the tilt of the Earth at that precise moment would determine when the days would be for some people, as the Earth can stop rotating, we cannot say that it doesn't stop orbiting the Sun, thus the days would be as long as seasons, and the seasons would be the days, determining the weather and sun exposure. Also, in time, the Moon would eventually crash into the Earth, as the centrifugal force of the spinning Earth managed to hold the Moon in place within Earth's gravitational field. The Moon would continue orbiting Earth, but would eventually crash the Earth. But during that time, mass panic would erupt across the planet, with citizens freaking out the moment they realized that the Earth had ceased rotation. Many would die in and because of the panic, while government leaders struggled to maintain control, while enlisting all the possible Scientists of every genre to figure out what happened, why, how and what they can do about it, if at all. Many would claim that the world was at its end. Religious figures would go preaching about what they had done wrong and how they God(s) or any other religious being may be angered at them, with almost every religious being praying, and offering and doing whatever they could religiously for the Earth to continue rotation, despite the lack of belief in some peoples religions. If the Earth lasted for a exponential amount of time, per say a few generations without a solution, people would than adapt to the way the new world was. Education would alter and teach about the new Earth, and people would book vacations to the warmer parts when it was cold, and vise versa. History would change with everything revolving around the new way the Earth was, until: The Moon comes crashing down, natural causes wipe out the Earth, this event has already occurred in another parallel dimension, Chuck Norris denies such things from happening, Kuger denies such things from happening, or I stop typing.

On a serious note, though, I'd go with something like a Power Ring from the Green Lantern comics. Mentally-generated hard-light constructs are cool. Like Fezzes. And bow ties.

Also. 3000th. Congrats, Kuger!
