Fauxtography? Or just you’re way of telling us that there’s no news in rightwingistan?

It’s all relative.

Speaking of Einstein, did you know;

March is the anniversary of Albert Einstein’s birthday.

He was born March 14, 1879.

Few remember that the Nobel Prize winner married his cousin, Elsa Lowenthal after his first marriage dissolved in 1919.

He stated that he was attracted to Elsa because she was well endowed.

He postulated that if you are attracted to women with large breasts, the attraction is stronger if there is a DNA connection.

It was called Einstein’s Theory of Relative Titty.

Energy = Mass x 34,596,000,000. Which means the mass needed for the Hiroshima bomb was all of 6 tenths of a gram.

Slow day history and physics question.

Hiroshima or Nagasaki , one was a fusion bomb, one was a fission bomb, which was which?

shooter on November 24, 2006 at 12:16 PM

Hiroshima was a fission bomb, Nagasaki was fusion, IGRC.

Bush asked – Where is that Japanese Sex Chair I’ve heard all about?

Linky link!

The depressing part of that picture is that it is the U.S. President shaking hands with a Japanese designed and built robot, and not the other way around. This is what happens when you rebuild your enemy’s infrastructure and not your own.

Way to go, U.S., keep loving your enemies more than your own people. Way to go, American school system, keep dumbing down our children so they forget that their forebears were masters of the planet and builders of the world, once upon a time.

The Japanese aren’t our enemies any more. Haven’t been for, oh, a few years.

Hiroshima and Nagasaki were both fission bombs. The Hiroshima bomb was called Little Boy, and was a uranium device. Fat Man was dropped on Nagasaki and used plutonium. The first fusion bomb wasn’t detonated until 1952.

Joke:

Robot says: “It is pronounce NUK-LEE-ARE, President Bush.”

Correction:

Neither Fat Man nor Little Boy were fusion devices. Those weapons didn’t advent until later in 1952 with the detonation of the Ivy Mike 10 MT device.

Mr. Bush to Japanese entrepreneur:

“Could you switch head? Maybe put Paris Hilton’s or Eva Longoria’s mug up there? Maybe incorporate a cigar cutter/lighter combo. Dad has me shoppin’ for the Clintons.”

That guy in the middle just doesn’t look right.

The Korean writing in the background made me curious about this “Japanese” robot. According to http://news.yahoo.com/photos/ss/events/pl/081201presidentbush, this photo is from a show in S. Korea last November, and the robot is actually from Hanson Robotics of Dallas, which maybe is why Bush is greating it like an old friend.

pedestrian on November 24, 2006 at 3:54 PM

Hey is going to buy 10 million of these, give them weapons and invade North Korea. Only problem will be, no one will tell the Kim Jong Mentally Ill from the real robot. Guess they will have to shoot robots and see which one bleeds.

Why is that one that looks like Yul Brynner looking at me funny?
