Let's ask Rainman
 
This is your chance to ask Rainman a question*

*the probability of Rainman giving an answer
depends on the question
the person asking said question
Rainman's availability and desire to answer the question

I will start:

Rainman who was the Chiefs' best draft pick?

Hammock Parties 03-25-2007 03:17 PM

This is an excellent idea for a thread. I propose we wait until Rain Man answers each question before another is asked.

with a hot date as well

Ten Best Draft Picks Ever for the Chiefs

1. Bobby Bell. A Hall of Fame linebacker for a 7th-round pick. Easy choice.

2. Will Shields. A dozen pro bowls for a 3rd-round pick.

3. Willie Lanier. Hall of Fame middle linebacker for a 2nd-round pick.

4. Gary Green. Drafted in the first round, went to multiple pro bowls, was then traded for a first-round pick that was used to draft John Alt, who went to more pro bowls.

5. Jan Stenerud. Hall of Fame kicker in the 3rd round.

6. Buck Buchanan. 1st round pick for a Hall of Fame defensive tackle? I'll take it.

7. 3rd-round pick, 1997. Used to trade up to get Tony Gonzalez. If not for that use of the draft pick, we would've ended up with Kenard Lang and Greg Clark instead of Tony G.

8. Jack Rudnay. Multiple pro bowls for a 4th-round pick.

9. Tom Condon. 10th round pick for a multi-year starter.

10. Derrick Thomas. Yes, it was a high first-round choice. But what a choice.

Honorable Mention #1: Ryan Leaf, Chargers. Killed that franchise for years.

Honorable Mention #2: Todd Blackledge, Chiefs. Not good from a football standpoint, but it's given us something to talk about for nearly 25 years.

These Tyrannosaurs do not have their pilots licenses yet, so they are on foot.

Mr. Flopnuts 03-25-2007 04:55 PM

Can you explain why a golf ball has dimples? If dimples reduce drag, why don't we see this surface feature on other aerodynamic shapes like airplane wings? Thank you for your time and attention to this matter.

Dimples exist on golf balls for four reasons.

1. To eliminate confusion between golf balls and ping-pong balls, after dozens of tragic ping-pong career-ending injuries in the late 1930s.

2. To create air turbulence so that air can "bend around" the round shape of the ball. For more aerodynamic shapes such as wings, turbulence is a bad thing, but for flying round shapes, turbulence is a good thing. (My aerospace engineering degree comes in handy for the first time in a decade.)

3. The cute "dimples" name attracts more golfers to the LPGA.

4. To facilitate removal of the golf ball from body orifices in the event of tragic golf course "holes in one" of the wrong type.

Maybe there is an order beyond Carl in the near future. However, what if that order is not at all what we had in mind? Maybe he's anti-Carl, bringing championships and empty seats.

This would be incorrect, in part because the light is merely being refracted in such a way that you can't see a shark that's two feet below the surface of water, but it can see you, and in part because such a finding would render useless my decades of research into invisibility.

Hmm, this is an interesting one. Since your sneezing changes with daylight savings time, it would appear that it's not linked to time of day, but rather your internal clock. My initial guess is that it's an evolutionary trait developed by one of your ancestors who worked a 10 to 6 shift on a pepper schooner for the Dutch East Indies Company.

Mattress police exist as a dedicated force only the states of Utah and Alabama, and in the City of Hot Springs, Arkansas. In the latter case, they were created to deal with a massive black market problem more than ripped-off tags.

God has a strict plan which is predetermined. We are living out his screenplay.
God created the universe and the Laws of Nature. He tinkers with it constantly, rewarding the faithful, interceding on their behalf.
God created the universe and the Laws of Nature, but is hands-off. We create our own futures. He rewards those who live a godly life.

Thanks.

In the U.S., labor laws limit the woodchuck to 0.44 cords per day. In Malaysia, generally deemed to the be the worst violator of woodchuck labor laws, woodchucks routinely chuck up to 1.5 cords per day. The wood is then converted to athletic shoes by giant armies of preteen children.

Yes.
