Okay Lewinsky, you've been asking for this. I tried to play nice, but you wanted to play games. I tried to be civil, but you wanted a smack-down. I don't normally like to drop names, but you're forcing me to pull out my big guns. I have the true story directly from the mouth of a man who was actually there.

JUST LISTEN TO THIS!

True. Don't know what the hell I was on yesterday morning!!

But when it comes to Mk14's you might as well be shooting at a ghost ship, because she a'int detonatin' anyway.

OK, so I spend 6 minutes and 28 seconds of my life listening to that - that sham. So the Pequod get's a parking ticket, SO WHAT!

Games no, PRINCIPLES, yes. I have been playing nice too, and have bent over backwards to be civil. I have made sure that no coconuts ever got harmed in our dispute or posts. But, YOU come along and bring some big guns to the table and want BLOOD.

I see your point, but, dear sir, my guns are bigger than your big guns.

And I also, have PROOF, sir. Your working theory of the Professor detonating a nuclear device on the Pequod using coconuts is pure bunk!

If you do not watch the flick to the END ... you WILL FAIL to see my point.







You need to watch Moby Dick one more time. When Orson Wells gets on the pulpit preaching he says:

[Spelling is a problem here …]

“And God created a great fish [which torpedo number?] to swallow up Joenah.”

“The sin of Joenah was his disobedience”

Sounds like you?

KILL Mary Ann, and move on!

Okay, so you've proven that Orson Welles is Gregory Peck is Patrick Stewart is Kirk Douglas. But does that mean that Jurgen Prochnow is a white whale? This should open your bloodshot eyes:

Well, at least there's something we agree on!

damn good flick you submitted. I am running out of options, here.


Take this you thief of documentation!

You should CONFESS to your sins as proven here after reviewing this - you and your ship of fools. :p :


You are nothing less than a video pirate. PERIOD!

http://learnabit.homeserver.com/lab/pirates.wmv





Top that!

I hope NONE of it is compatible with you current video systems. You are still a BETA tape guy, egh?

THAT is the ship Hang Vorkapitan spotted. SINK IT! period.

Notice the lack of coconuts in the flick, sir. Detonating a nuclear device around a coconut shell is NOT possible. Concede defeat.

You are DOOMED to hell without agreeing with me.

I am but a poor luddite, and posess but a single-core machine; as I can only spit once for your quad, I'll certainly lose that contest.

Confess my sins? I'll BOAST of them, sirrah! You say I am nothing more than a video pirate? I proclaim that I am nothing LESS! I have a copy of the Star Wars Holiday Special, of which Mr. Lucas has tried to deny the very existence! Of course watching it takes ten years off your life, so be kind - I'm not long for this cruel world.

Looks like your overdue for a shave - the above post.

Just don't let some other so called "gentleman" tell you a story how the Professor made an electric shaver out of a coconut.

Signed,
a clean shaven XO

QUESTION for Mr. Sailor Steve:

Five sailors survive a shipwreck and swim to a tiny island where there is nothing but a coconut tree and a monkey. The sailors gather all the coconuts and put them in a big pile under the tree. Exhausted, they agree to go to wait until the next morning to divide up the coconuts.

At one o'clock in the morning, the first sailor wakes up. He realizes that he can't trust the others, and decides to take his share now. He divides the coconuts into five equal piles, but there is one coconut left over. He gives that coconut to the monkey, hides his coconuts (one of the five piles), and puts the rest of the coconuts (the other four piles) back under the tree.

At two o'clock, the second sailor wakes up. Not realizing that the first sailor has already taken his share, he too divides the coconuts up into five piles, leaving one coconut over which he gives to the monkey. He then hides his share (one of the five piles), and puts the remainder (the other four piles) back under the tree.

At three, four, and five o'clock in the morning, the third, fourth, and fifth sailors each wake up and carry out the same actions.

In the morning, all the sailors wake up, and try to look innocent. No one makes a remark about the diminished pile of coconuts, and no one decides to be honest and admit that they've already taken their share. Instead, they divide the pile up into five piles, for the sixth time, and find that there is yet again one coconut left over, which they give to the monkey.

Question: What is the smallest amount of coconuts that there could have been in the original pile?

Possible ANSWER:

Every sailor leaves 4/5(n-1) coconuts of a pile of n coconuts. This results in an awful formula for the complete process (because every time one coconut must be taken away to make the pile divisible by 5):

4/5(4/5(4/5(4/5(4/5(4/5(p-1)-1)-1)-1)-1)-1), where p is the number of coconuts in the original pile, must be a whole number.

The trick is to make the number of coconuts in the pile divisible by 5, by adding 4 coconuts. This is possible because you can take away those 4 coconuts again after taking away one fifth part of the pile: normally, 4/5(n-1) coconuts are left of a pile of n coconuts; now 4/5(n+4)=4/5(n-1)+4 coconuts are left of a pile of n+4 coconuts.

And because of this, the number of coconuts in the pile stays divisible by 5 during the whole process. So we are now looking for a p for which the following holds:

4/5×4/5×4/5×4/5×4/5×4/5×(p+4)=(46/56)×(p+4), where p is the number of coconuts in the original pile, must be a whole number.

The smallest (p+4) for which the above holds, is 56. So there were p=56-4=15,621 coconuts in the original pile.


My coconut brain is hurting after that.
At least the monkey got some coconuts.

And you thought A.O.B. was hard using manual targeting?

Okay, that's the last time I through a direct insult at you! The monkey has a better chance at solving that one than I do.

Actually?
The whole thought is flawed.
5 people washing up on a bit of land after being in the sea?
The monkey is food!
Protein!!
And monkey don't taste to bad.

Where is the ship he ran into?

The guy that started this thread should be held accountable for his actions.

I'd say: "Put him in an iron coffin with spikes on the inside and find a steep hill - let's roll."
