Wanna help me write the exam? It's physics, but a very basic level of it.
I wish I could help but I'm too ignorant of physics to even know what to ask! Oh, Brain, why you contain such large quantities of such trivial information?

Dude, like a bazillion fire trucks just passed by. What's going on here in Santa Monica?

I try to write as many questions as possible in terms of amusement park rides. Almost all of the basic Newtonian physics can be very well explained using amusement park rides.

All I know about physics is: If you drop something, it'll hit the floor eventually. and drinking stuff makes the pill float down your throat(Which I also know as "fluid mechanics") Now, I'm out.

Oh -- Anna Nicole Smith really DID die.
That's what I probably deserve for skipping like 200 "who said what" posts. But since I'm never quoted, my lack of interest is perhaps only slightly justified.

My friend was a physics teacher, and Kings Dominon would have "Physics Day" where students went for free and had to do problems about the rides.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That's AWESOME.
I can't believe it's not even 5 yet, especially given I didn't get here until 10. WTF?

That's so cool!
If I were able to afford it, that's exactly what I'd do with my students - take them to the amsement park and then spoil it all for them by making them solve rollercoaster and ferris wheels questions.

If you seated in a closed car with a helium balloon and the car accelerates forward does the balloon move backward, forward, or neither relative to you?

Yeah, she was at the Hard Rock hotel just south of here in Hollywood, FL. Eeep 39 years old. Whatever the story ends up being, very sad. What's the chances of her daughter not being totally screwed up?
