converting weights and measures
 

In a global economy, sometimes we all need a bit of help converting weights and measures around the world. Here are some handy hints: <br><br>The ratio of an igloo's circumference to its diameter = Eskimo Pi <br><br>2000 pounds of Chinese soup = Won ton <br><br>1 millionth of a mouthwash = 1 microscope <br><br>Time it takes to sail 220 yards at 1 nautical mile per hour = Knotfurlong <br><br>16.5 feet in the Twilight Zone = 1 Rod Serling <br><br>Half of a large intestine = 1 semicolon <br><br>1,000,000 aches = 1 megahurtz <br><br>Shortest distance between two jokes = A straight line <br><br>2 million bicycles = 2 megacycles <br><br>and finally.(are you ready?) <br><br>2000 mockingbirds = 2 kilomockingbirds<br><br>
