"... mass of approximately half that of Earth"

How many moon units would that be?

Around 40. At least if you can assume the mass reported for Earth and the moon given on wikipedia. A simple division says the earth is 81.2797 "moon units".

Okay. Then how many Franks or Dweezils does that translate to? Like, ohmahgawd!

Microsoft Intellimouse Explorer mouse. It's the best mouse I've ever used, I'm not sure why Microsoft ever went away from the design. Clearly by the price, they are still highly sought after.

That is another one I never pass up at Goodwill or St. Vinnie's, the 3.0 and the 4.0 especially. Those are also consistent resellers for me.

I still have an old ball-mouse that's coming up on 22 years and still working.

Rapamycin?

My oldest ball mice still work fine as well, several Apple IIGS mice, a few Commodore 1350 mice, a 1351 or two, and a Tandy mouse (which has a bigass steel ball that a much younger me would have been tempted to use as a steelie in the marbles arena back in grade school).

I use laptop with touchpad. What is this "mouse" of which you speak?

I found the touchpad to be too annoyingly oversensitive, so I prefer to use a good old wireless Logitech Trackman Marble T-RA18 with mine. I was surprised at how quickly I took to using a trackball.

On my gaming rig though, I am rather fond of my Logitech G300, and really should shop around for a spare just in case this one ever bites the dust...spaaaaaace cadet...

Oh. I did take a peek at the links for the Mayflower Compact, and the Declaration of Independence, and noted the acknowledgement of religious based stuff in those. I simply felt there was no need to discuss those since your point on those two were clear (remember, if it goes without saying, there is no need to say it).

The bit about the preamble was the only one that needed addressed, considering there was nothing religiously bent in that section of the Consitution. That was all, nothing more.

The Jews with true Jew-fu have 613 commandments, though they do overlap with the reduced-commandment-set religions that were derived from them.

I thought it was Jew-Jitsu

It's Jew-Do.

Or for Krusty the Clown, it's Jew-Doh!

Ironically, the CAPTCHA is "demonaic".

Is jewdough another name for unleavened bread?
