Settle this bet for me...
My friend and I are arguing over who is correct. We have a 2006 Ford Mustang (pink) on the line, so it is imperative that this is resolved as soon as possible.
I say a mile is longer than a kilometer. He says a liter is bigger than an ounce. WHO IS CORRECT????

One Mile vs One Kilometre by swallow.
One Litre vs One Ounce by volume proportional to the positive/negative void left by Rosie ODonnells departure from the View.

Since the average length of the human digestive system is between 6 - 8.5 metres, travelling either a mile or kilometre by swallow would be a difficult thing to do. It would require being eaten then passed (undigested) then eaten again and passed approximatley 150 times. All I can say is I hope whoever is doing to swallowing is a very good friend of yours and they get to ride in the mustang at least once.
Also in regards to Ms Odonnell, unless she actually vanished from the face of the earth she is still somewhere taking up valuable space that could be used to store.... let's say a spare set of tyres and rims to suit a '06 mustang. If, however, she has been disentergrated and her ashes or loose particles... whatever, have been fired out and dispersed into space then yes a definitive positive void but also unfortunately a negative void due to the fact you have nowhere to store your spare tyres. To summarise: I don't know. Get a calculator or fancy mobile phone which has a converter in it. Or use the internet. |

++++ Hmm... We weren't really intending to eat the bird. We probably would measure the mile and kilometer by letting the swallow fly the distance. I should mention, that the Mustang already has tires and rims. In fact, it has four of each. I also normally carry only one spare tire. It might work if we were to puree Rosie, and put her into separate jars for measurement.

I don't see how driving a pink Mustang would be reason to be shot.
And it has value to at least two people, so it is worth at least something.

a mile is longer than an ounce, but not as heavy.

1 kilometer = .62 miles. And 1 black Mustang=.62 pink Mustangs.
