Engineering Conversions

[KMurphy]

I searched, but couldn't find a thread on this.

Handy Engineering Conversions:

Ratio of an igloo's circumference to its diameter = Eskimo Pi
2000 pounds of Chinese soup = Won ton
1 millionth of a mouthwash = 1 microscope
Time between slipping on a peel and smacking the pavement = 1 bananosecond
Weight an evangalist carries with God = 1 billigram
Time it takes to sail 220 yards at 1 nautical mile per hour = Knot-furlong
365.25 days of drinking low calorie beer because it's less filling = 1 lite year
16.5 feet in the Twilight Zone = 1 Rod Serling
Half of a large intesting = 1 semicolon
1000 aches = 1 kilohurtz
Basic unit of laryngitis = 1 hoarsepower
Shortest distance between two jokes = A straight line
453.6 graham crackers = 1 pound cake
1 million microphones = 1 megaphone
1 million bicycles = 2 megacycles
2000 mockingbirds = two kilomockingbirds
10 cards = 1 decacards
1 kilogram of falling figs = 1 Fig Newton
1000 cubic centimeters of wet socks = 1 literhosen
1 millionth of a fish = 1 microfish
1 trillion pins = 1 terrapin
10 rations = 1 decoration
100 rations = 1 C-ration
2 monograms = 1 diagram
8 nickles = 2 paradigms
3 statute miles of intravenous surgical tubing at Yale University Hospital = 1 I.V. League

I got this in an email from work.

teh funny.

when i saw the title i thought the thread was about
converting art or drama majors to engineering.

1 kilogram of falling figs = 1 Fig Newton


1 kilogram is 9.8 Newtons

those are really good.
