Hmmmm. I believe the surface of a pool ball is all bumps and trenches giving it the "feel" of smoothness. The earth may have vast flat areas followed by big bumps. Nebraska/Kansas to eastern Colorado to the Rockies. I'm sorry I don't know if there are vast plains leading to the Himalayas.

If held in your hand and touched with your fingers, I don't believe the earth would "feel" as smooth.

It would feel very smooth. It would also feel perfectly dry, because if the earth were shrunk to the size of a billiard ball, the oceans would constitute such a thin layer of moisture that it'd be completely undetectable by feel.

If you act like you have a salt shaker in your hand and shake the salt into your mouth you can actually taste the salt.

I can't believe I ALMOST tried this,

I was very close.

I even stuck my tongue out to make it easier for the imaginary salt to land on it.

How do you get killed by a vending machine?

Tipping it over trying steal.

They have warning labels on them.

I've never been to a funeral where the cause of death was hilarious. That's got to lighten the mood right?

Make the casket in the shape of the vending machine and put the man of honor inside it.

It would be awesome if someone was killed by one of those games with the crane inside where you have to try and pick up the stuffed animals. At he funeral you could make a giant one and have everyone there operate the huge claw until someone was able to clamp onto the body and shoot them down a shoot into the grave.

did you blame it on the donkey?

No, there weren't any donkeys around to blame. I was about 14 years old and one of my best friends and cousin were first hand witnesses to this re-birthing of sorts. It still gets brought up these days.

And yet in some scenes of "Beyond The Sea", he's 20 years older than the character he's playing (Bobby Darin).
