2009 to be delayed

[sysyphus]

It seems we will have to wait a full second longer for the new year, based on the fact that the Earth's rotation has been buggered up over the last century or so.

I blame Obama. I know he's not President of the USA yet but it's time we got a little practice in.

 

[Perfection]

THAT'S 1 SECOND MORE OF BUSH PRESIDENCY. THIS CANNOT STAND

 

[salty mud]

Does that make next year one second shorter?

 

[silver 2039]

I agree that this is Obama's fault. Global warming too.

 

[Yoda Power]

That sucks. I can't wait that long!

Mr. Pen said he intends to spend the extra second of 2008 fitting in an extra drink.

Sounds like a good idea

 

[AL_DA_GREAT]

It is going to be cool to count to -1 instead of zero.

It's completely pointless, it's not like anyone is going to adjust their clocks by one second.

Think again!!! I just did!

I blame Canada.

Dr. Pen said some scientists blame much of that slowing down on a Canadian source, the Bay of Fundy, which has the highest tides.

 

[choxorn]

I'll spend that extra second...

...Sleeping.

 

[pop daddy]

Well With The Economy And All!

 

[sourboy]

Now we can all laugh at the idiots who cheer at the wrong time and call them noobs.

 

[Gigaz]

I'm pretty sure the additional second is the first in 2009 and not the last in 2008 so no problem

 

[JollyRoger]

Anything to get enough secs.

 

[cubsfan6506]

I'm going to use my second to post in this thread.

 

[azzaman333]

This could hurt downtown politically.

 

[DYNAMICS]

Is there any point posting this thread? It's not like you can do anything meaningful in 1 second?

 

[cubsfan6506]

Thats what she said.

 

[Perfection]

It takes only a second for me to shoot you in the face, is that meaningful?


EDIT: DAMN YOU CUBSFAN, YOU STOLE MY ZINGER POSITION AND MADE A LOUSY ZINGER. PLEASE DO NOT WASTE PERFECTLY GOOD ZINGER POSITIONS ON LOUSY ZINGERS.
