Earthquakes

Earthquakes: explained so you can remember!

It might be well to be a bit knowledgeable about earthquakes in case someone asks or wants to know more about them.  

Since science was my chosen profession for 35 years, I might be a bit more able than most to explain it.

In hopes of a "knowing" society, I present this.

 What's the difference between

an oscillatory and a trepidatory earthquake? 

 1. This calculation is just for engineers:

This is a trepidatory earthquake:

This is an oscillatory earthquake:

And this is a combination of both: (trepidatory and oscillatory)

    
Science is beautiful when it is well explained...

Joke (travelling salesman)

An out-of-towner drove his car into a ditch in a desolated area. Luckily, a local farmer came to help with his big strong horse named Buddy.

He hitched Buddy up to the car and yelled, "Pull, Nellie, pull!" Buddy didn't move.

Then the farmer hollered, "Pull, Buster, pull!" Buddy didn't respond.

Once more the farmer commanded, "Pull, Coco, pull!" Nothing.

Then the farmer nonchalantly said, "Pull, Buddy, pull!" And the horse easily dragged the car out of the ditch.

The motorist was most appreciative and very curious. He asked the farmer why he called his horse by the wrong name three times.

"Well... Buddy is blind and if he thought he was the only one pulling, he wouldn't even try!"

Shopping

A lady walks into Tiffany's...she looks around, spots a beautiful diamond bracelet and walks over to inspect it...


as she bends over to look more closely, she unexpectedly farts...


very embarrassed, she looks around nervously to see if anyone noticed her little whoops and prays that a salesperson was not anywhere near...


as she turns around, her worst nightmare materializes in the form of a salesman standing right behind her...


good looking as well .. cool as a cucumber, he displays all of the qualities one would expect of a professional in a store like Tiffany's...


he politely greets the lady with, 'Good day, madam .. how may we help you today???


Blushing and uncomfortable, but still hoping that the salesman somehow missed her little 'incident', she asks, 'Sir, what is the price of this lovely bracelet ??'


He answers, "Madam .. if you farted just looking at it - you're going to shit when I tell you the price.."

Married couple joke

A woman’s husband had been slipping in and out of a coma for several months, yet she had stayed by his bedside every single day.

One day, when he came to, he motioned for her to come nearer.

As she sat by him, he whispered, eyes full of tears, ‘You know what?  You have been with me all through the bad times. When I got fired, you were there to support me. When my business failed, you were there. When I got shot, you were by my side.’

‘When we lost the house, you stayed right here. When my health started failing, you were still by my side. You know what?’

‘What dear?’ she gently asked, smiling as her heart began to fill with warmth.

‘I think you’re bad luck. Get the Hell away from me’.

What do they call your offspring?

Four Catholic men and a Catholic woman were having coffee in St.Peters Square
.
The first Catholic man tells his friends, “My son is a priest, when he walks into a room, everyone calls him ‘Father’.”

The second Catholic man chirps, “My son is a Bishop.  When he walks into a room people call him ‘Your Grace’.”

The third Catholic gent says, “My son is a Cardinal.  When he enters a room everyone bows their head and says ‘Your Eminence’.”

The fourth Catholic man says very proudly, “My son is the Pope.  When he walks into a room people call him ‘Your Holiness’.”

Since the lone Catholic woman was sipping her coffee in silence, the four men give her a subtle, “Well….?”

She proudly replies, “I have a daughter,

Big hole

Two guys are walking through the woods and come across this big hole. 

"Wow . . . that looks deep." "Sure does . . . toss a few pebbles in there and see how deep it is."

They pick up a few pebbles and throw them in and wait . . . no noise
"Man. That is REALLY deep . . . here . . . throw one of these great big rocks down there. Those should make a noise."

They pick up a couple football-sized rocks and toss them into the hole and wait . . . and wait. Nothing. They look at each other in amazement.

One gets a determined look on his face and says, "Hey . . . over here in the weeds, there's a railroad tie. Help me carry it over here. When we toss that sucker in, it's GOTTA make some noise".

The two drag the heavy tie over to the hole and heave it in. Not a sound comes from the hole. 

Suddenly, out of the nearby woods, a goat appears, running like the wind. It rushes toward the two men, then right past them, running as fast as it's legs will carry it. Suddenly it leaps in the air and into the hole.

The two men are astonished with what they've just seen . . .

Then, out of the woods comes a farmer who spots the men and ambles over. "Hey . . . you two guys seen my goat out here?"

"You bet we did! Craziest thing I ever seen! It came running like crazy and just jumped into this hole!"

"Nah", say the farmer, "That couldn't have been MY goat. My goat was chained to a railroad tie."
