Amusing Stuff

I was in training for two days this week learning more about a software package that we use to do engineering calculations and equation solving.  When discussing that kind of thing, it usually necessitates discussing vectors.  Which reminded one of my co-workers of a movie his kids like.

Here is an excerpt from the "real video".

And here is a slightly doctored video that is also very funny and stresses the definition of a vector.  Both of these crack me up because they are nerdy!  Maybe if you're not into physics or engineering it's not quite so funny, I don't know.

During training the instructor was telling about one customer that wanted to use units of Megaseconds (which is about 11.574 days, by the way).  And then I had the idea to invent the unit of Kiloseconds (which is about 16.7 minutes).  Which brought to mind this movie clip.  If you're watching with children, watch out around 2:25 for one swear word.

That's your laugh for the day (hopefully)!
