They don't get much cornier than this!

Received this from a friend this morning.  Apologies in advance, but some are funny!

In a global economy, sometimes we all need a bit of help converting weights and measures around the world.  Here are some handy hints:

1. Ratio of an igloo's circumference to its diameter = Eskimo Pi
2. 2000 pounds of Chinese soup = Won ton
3. 1 millionth of a mouthwash = 1 microscope
4. Time it takes to sail 220 yards at 1 nautical mile per hour = Knotfurlong
5. 16.5 feet in the Twilight Zone = 1 Rod Serling
6. Half of a large intestine = 1 semicolon
7. 1,000,000 aches = 1 megahurtz
8. Shortest distance between two jokes = A straight line
9. 2 million bicycles = 2 megacycles

and finally.(are you ready?)

10. 2000 mockingbirds = 2 kilomockingbirds

*hee hee!* Reminds me of the time we carved the symbol for "PI" into one of our jack-o-lanterns: Pumpkin PI!
