85 ways to add magic to your world
Don't make me play The Game by myself on the front page, people!
Well, if you're going to do it this way, here's Agent 86 (from a great fan site that predates the movie, so it's very Don Adams-centric. Sorry about that, Steve Carell).
21-87 is a cheery little film by Arthur Lipsett that heavily influenced George Lucas and is where he got the concept of "the Force".
*facepalm*
You fools were supposed to post in the game thread!!
88 mph to get Back To The Future!
*88* to you guys*
*but you'll have to go here to see what it means
Well, since this isn't the game thread, I'd like to point out that 27 is not divisible by 7. Sorry, that's been bugging me since the beginning, and I missed my chance inthread.
Well, thank heaven someone is paying attention to the facts!
In goofy's defense, any number is divisible by 7, but sometimes there's a remainder and sometimes things get really weird.
*said the math dope*
So, knicks, can we count* on you for 89?
*see what I did there?*
"27 is not divisible by 7".
But in base 14 it is.
(And we all know how useful quadradecimal is).
For my bonehead college math course, we had to learn (and pass a test on) the Babylonian math system.
The Babylonians had an advanced number system, in some ways more advanced than our present systems. It was a positional system with a base of 60...
Immensely useful.
I'm sure it was to teach us the idea of calculating in different bases, but wouldn't base 2 have been more 'real life', she whined?

I'll go to second base with you anytime, sweetcheeks.
OOOOOOH, QUIDDY!

*puckers up*
