NYC, New York!

HAPPY BIRTHSTONE DAY!!

I need an idea for a new segment: will somebody email me?

Anyways, here is a random argument.

Hillbillie Nye: I'm here talking about the wonderful city I live in, NYC.
Opscotch B. Bye: I'm here defending education.
Hillbillie Nye: NYC makes even hillbillies like me happy.
Opscotch B. Bye: Who cares?
Hillbillie Nye: I do!
Opscotch B. Bye: Well, I don't!
Hillbillie Nye: That's your problem.
Opscotch B. Bye: Sheesh. An education is way more important.
Hillbillie Nye: How?
Opscotch B. Bye: School? Job? Work?
Hillbillie Nye: Huh?
Opscotch B. Bye: MONEY! You big oof! Education keeps money flowing!
Hillbillie Nye: Oh, MONEY! Did I tell you New York has lots of money?
Opscotch B. Bye: Whatever. Try getting into New York without and education!
Hillbillie Nye: New York is the home of many distinguished schools!
Opscotch B. Bye: I-DON'T-CARE!!!!!!
Hillbillie Nye: Well, neither do I.
Opscotch B. Bye: Education is the best!
Hillbillie Nye: No, New York is. It has money, wealth, Times Square, skyscrapers, markets, malls, shopping, restaurants, five-star hote.....
Opscotch B. Bye: I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE!
Hillbillie Nye: Why?
Opscotch B. Bye: I love New York, but Amethyst said I had to defend education.
Hillbillie Nye: Oh, I feel for ya.
Opscotch B. Bye: I'm good. So, I guess NYC won this argument, huh?!
Hillbillie Nye: Yup. Now we just have to wait for Amethyst to close this segment.
3 hours later
Opscotch B. Bye: Snore, Snore.
Hillbillie Nye: Snore.
Opscotch B. Bye: Ah!!!!!!!!! Where am I?
Hillbillie Nye: On Amethyst's blog, RANDOM?!
Opscotch B. Bye: oh, yeah. Has she come yet?
Hillbillie Nye: No.
Opscotch B. Bye: Well, we can just hope.
Hillbillie Nye: And wait Opscotch.
Opscotch B. Bye: Yes, wait.
Hillbillie Nye: Did we say hope?
Opscotch B. Bye: (sighs)
33 seconds later
Hillbillie Nye: Did we say wait?

Mathematical Pi

HELLO!

I know alot of people with the interest of learning about pi. Pi is basically the circumfrence of a circle. Now, pi is an infinite number, which means it goes on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on, (well, you get the point). Here are just a few digits. 3.1415926535897932384626433832795028841971693993751058209749445923078164062862089986280348253421170679 8214808651328230664709384460955058223172535940812848111745028410270193852110555964462294895493038196 etc.

Now, with this, I have a mind s-t-r-e-t-c-h-e-r for you.

(courtesy of Teddy Katz)

A boy of 5 claimed to know all the digits of pi, but we all know that is an infinite number. What was he talking about? How is this possible??

Triple it! Now!




HI PEEPS!


We, as one in one million years, are having a TRIPLE ENTRY!

We have random pics, a dijaknow segment, and some HARD tongue twisters!
Enjoy-la!

1) Random Pics
The random pics are on the right and left sides of this post. We have a taco, and a pic of a cartoon wangdoodle.

2) Didjaknow!
Did you know...
-The dot over the letter "i" is called a tittle.
-A duck's quack doesn't echo.
-On average, 12 newborns will be given to the wrong parents daily!
-Donald Duck comics were banned from Finland because he doesn't wearpants.
-Charlie Chaplin once won third prize in a Charlie Chaplin Look-alike contest.
-Chewing gum while peeling onions will keep you from crying.
3) Tongue Twisters
Here are some awfully hard tongue twisters. Enjoy!
-Betty Botter had some butter,
"But," she said, "this butter's bitter.
If I bake this bitter butter,
it would make my batter bitter.
But a bit of better butter--
that would make my batter better.
"So she bought a bit of butter,
better than her bitter butter,
and she baked it in her batter,
and the batter was not bitter.
So 'twas better Betty Botter
bought a bit of better butter.
-Should Sally sell sea shells or should she sells shoes?
-A Tudor who tooted a flutetried to tutor two tooters to toot.Said the two to their tutor,"Is it harder to tootor to tutor two tooters to toot?"
-I am not the pheasant plucker,
I'm the pheasant plucker's mate.
I am only plucking pheasants
'cause the pheasant plucker's running late.
K!
Have a nice day!

WHO'S WITH GUM? WHO'S WITH REMAINDERS?

Who's with gum? Who's with remainders? Let's find out.


Heebie Jeebie: I'm with remainders! You know why I talk so much? Because I love remainders!! Ahhh! That's why my name is Heebie Jeebie. Cause I got the heebies! I love remainders. Remainders! Oh yeah!!! Yes, yessido! I once read a story about that once, it was about a b...
Joe: Ahem. My name is Joe. Frankly, I hate all the people in this world. I hate the stupid people who run the stupid military with all those heartless soldiers. After my experience with the military, I have disliked remainders for the rest of my life. I now like chewing gum.
Heebie Jeebie: Remainders, are, like, the, like, the only thing remaining! REMAINING! The, like only thing left! Right?
Joe: Yes that's right.
Heebie Jeebie: Yah, yes yessipie doo-da! YES! I am correct, yess! Yeah, yah, ye...
Joe: I hate remainders.
Heebie Jeebie: What? WHat? WhAt? WHAT??? How can you, like, not, like, like remainders? Why? How can you? That makes no sense!!!
Joe: I know. Gum is way better. Have you ever heard of strawberry-kiwi flavored remainders?
Heebie Jeebie: Noooooooooooooo, but that's not the point! No, not the point. Not tht point! nononononono, no!
Joe: I know, Hebbie Jeebie. Here, taste some gum.
Heebie Jeebie: What? How can I, like, taste some gum? That's, like your thing. Amethyst said I should be doing my thing! My thing, your thing, my thing, your thing. Like, heck yah! Like, (Joe shoves gum into Hebbie's mouth). Oh, my gosh. This is simply amazing!
Joe: I know, right?
Heebie Jeebie: Yes. Now that the gum has softened me, I can tell you my real story.
Joe: Ok then. I like it that you aren't talking funny!
Heebie Jeebie: So, this guy named Oompa Lomle Gasbotruck garglehardo Junglymistyperson (AKA Person) put a spell on me. I would not be able to get rid of my heebies until I had convinced you to like remainders. Person said that the only way to cure me was to have treesaplious guopuss, and I guess that's gum!
Joe: So, you do like gum?
Heebie Jeebie: Of course I do! Now that is some good gum!
Joe: So, this random argument is over because, well, we both like gum.
Heebie Jeebie: Ok, see you! (also, if you want to hear Joe's story, please join Amethyst and me next time on our brand new!!!!! segment, !Story Time!)
