Well thats misleading Corona, first of all, North America is not a continent, is just a region.

And after dong some research with my mexican friends, the United Mexican States is the actual name of the country. It has nothing to do wheather if its part of North America or not.

And for practical uses, Mexico is considered part of North America, the region.

Dear Dr Dis,

Is it possible to run a money laundering operation using a radio controlled clock?

**dglienna** · Oct 19th, 2004, 01:25 AM

Just saw "The Day After Tomorrow" the day before yesterday.

It's about another ICE AGE that required the evacuation of the southern half of the U.S. only! The upper half was left for dead!
Mexico closed their gates, and we stormed through anyways!

Pretty good movie. Left me wondering if I would have been left for dead, or asked to go south!

**mendhak** · Oct 19th, 2004, 01:35 AM

In case of a situation like in The Day After Tomorrow, the only thing you should be wondering is if you have enough cigarettes, vodka bottles and doobies to last the ice age!

**NoteMe** · Oct 19th, 2004, 05:37 AM

Time passes by slowly when you are in an ice age thats for sure...most of the time you have to lure out my willy with a suger lump....

**BodwadUK** · Oct 19th, 2004, 05:56 AM

Of course, the clock puts out some sort of weird aura that attracts people.

I was wondering the very same, and am wondering why they're hijacking this precious thread!

Dear Dr. Dis,

Since we have cleared up the continents, what are the seven seas? I keep hearing about them, but no matter how I count it, I can't seem to come up with seven.

**Dave Sell** · Oct 19th, 2004, 01:41 PM

Dear Dr. Dis,

I have been on hold with Dell's Sales Support (not customer support) for 2 hours. How much longer will I have to wait?

Excerpt from the book of "Lustfull Programming":

7. Be thou not ashamed of thine love of languages, rather thou shouldst embrace such as a gift.
8. Do thy design in Visual Basic, but design thou DLLs in C++, and reference them from Visual Basic. This shall accomplish unto thee two things:
9. The first is easy and speedy design,
10. the second being powerfull machine usage.

1. N. Atlantic
2. S. Atlantic
3. N. Pacific
4. S. Pacific
5. Indian
6. Antartic
7. Arctic

So although there are really only 5, the Atlantic and Pacific are split into two parts each.

It depends on how much money you have given them in the past 8 hours. The more money the sooner they respond. Unfortunatly the graph that this plots is not linear, I believe this is the equation:

Sin(5^3 + 18) * Tan(x)
Where X is the sum of money paid.

-Dr. Dis

P.S. I just plugged the above equation into my TI-82, makes quite a plot!

4) Antarctica
5) Austrailia

4) The Indian
