420 Game Answer

Here is the answer to the 420 game.
And the reason I asked if you all barbecue, it’s because most of us have grilled.. but the process of slow cooking meat for 10 hours over a raised wooden platform, ie: barbecuing, is not something most of us have done :-)

    I believe the answer you’re looking for is Pasteurize, as in Pasteurized Milk?

    Just a guess. :)

    An eponym is the name of a person, whether real or fictitious, which has (or is thought to have) given rise to the name of a particular place, tribe, era, discovery, or other item. I hope I can get your kiss my teacher SERHANCEM

  • shane

    By the way, I have some more words to request…

    * Mulligan – basically a do over in golf, but rarely used anywhere else.
    * Proof is in the pudding – Huh? Why does pudding always hold the proof?
    * Shoot the breeze – How did this expression come about for talking?
    * Cured Meat – What is it being Cured of?
    * mayday – Isn’t May day May 1st. So why do pilots say mayday when they are going to crash?
    * Screwed – When you can’t win, why are you called screwed?
    * Assassin – Why is murdering a famous person called an assassination rather than a murder? Where does the word come from?
    * Hooligan
    * Poppycock, Hogwash, Balderdash, Bullshit – Why do we need so many ways to say you’re wrong. Where did they all come from?
    * Shampoo – Why isn’t it just called liquid soap? Where did shampoo come from?

    Why do I always request a bunch at one time? I guess I get inspried in waves. :)

    Thank you my beloved teacher!!

    Oops, Assassin wasn’t supposed to be on there. I forgot that you had already done that one.

    Hey Marina,
    Seeing as you’re “hot for words”, I was wondering what the etymology of the word hot is. As in, when you say “Look at that girl, she’s hot?”
    Does it come from an animal being in “heat”? Or from someone actually increasing enhanced hody temperature?
    As it’s part of your slogan, I htink that it would be a wonderful word for you to define/give the etymology of.

  • http://www.dearmergatroid.us mergatroidal

    prospero811, to continue the last post’s discourse on number theory and bases, for example, see the wikipedia post on the number 1729.

    A quote from the page:

    Because in base 10 the number 1729 is divisible by the sum of its digits, it is a Harshad number. It also has this property in octal (1729 = 33018, 3 + 3 + 0 + 1 = 7) and hexadecimal (1729 = 6C116, 6 + C + 1 = 1910), but not in binary.

    If I find something odd or weird with 420 I’ll keep it to myself. I won’t further this conversation because you or turtlewax or Drew probably don’t really care what the number 420 can do in binary or octal forms. How’s that?(:~}

    Unpasteurized milk is out-of-this-world, super great, fantastic especially in a frosted mug, just hard to find. Actually, almost everything we drink (in U.S) passes through a pasteurization process thanks–Louis. :idea: Hey, Andy, what about irradiation? Not much in these parts.

    Yes it is Pasteurize. He developed the method used to kill bacteria in milk. Hence the process is named after Louie!

  • http://captainjack.ws captainjack

    Well I got both questions wrong. :cry: I guessed none of the above for the 420 question. And for the BBQ homework I was looking way to deep into the question to find an answer. I was going to post my homework answer but was just to busy to finish it. So on that note, Here is what I researched in the BBQ assignment.

    William Dampier, Naturalist, Author, Buccaneer

    William Dampier has more than a thousand entries in the Oxford English Dictionary ( maybe the same books Marina uses? ), and he introduced hundreds of words into the English language, including barbecue, chopsticks, cashew, sub-species, sea-breeze, sea-lion and kumquat.

    Dampier’s powers of observation were astonishing. He was the first to deduce that winds cause currents and the first to produce wind maps across the world, which surpassed even the work of Edmund Halley.

    So, why was a man so well-traveled, so highly esteemed and rife with accomplishment forgotten by history? It was because he also was a buccaneer! While Dampier was making his observations in nature, his buddies were off looting villages and capturing ships! While, it is not clear if he actively participated in the violence, some of his contemporaries certainly think so. It is not in dispute that Dampier shared in the spoils, and his life’s dream was to capture the Manila Galleon, a rich treasure ship from the Philippines.

    Now was that interesting? :grin:

    *Mischievous* (and why pronounced different ways)

    *Junk in the Trunk* (is this a new phrase about big butts?)

    Now that you have covered Drugs, and since you have pretty much blanketed Sex, that leaves rock-n-roll.

    There are very many words which come to mind. Here is a recent one.

    Where did the word “guitar” come from?

    Long ago, I suggested that you put a bibliography up on your web site.. My goodness, you are actually getting people interested in the origin of words.

    Let me again suggest that your readers check out the very interesting book “the unfolding of language” by Guy Deutscher.

    (Did you know that your style of teaching would be banned in the US, since it is interesting in different measure to the two obvious groups of students who would be exposed to it? I remember a similar type of material in a “learn Italian” class years ago. Not allowed in the US!)

  • http://captainjack.ws captainjack

    Its a Hollywood phrase. When communicating with someone via ham radio. It proper to say “Over” when your done speaking. This lets the other radio operator know when you have stopped talking and waiting for the other radio operator to reply. There is a lot of static on the radio so its hard to tell when someone has stopped talking. The word “Out” means you are done talking and not expecting a reply. Basically you are switching stations or turning off the radio. Now this is where Hollywood gets it all messed up. You never say Over and Out. What that means is that you have stopped talking and waiting for the other operator to reply but your not going to listen to their reply because you have indicated you have switch channels or turned off the radio. Its just pain rude! :mad: Leave it to Hollywood to get it wrong again. :mrgreen:

    Thanks for your work

  • prospero811

    I’m not that much of a mathematician. I pointed out the items regarding the number 420 in an attempt at humor, trying to come up with reasons to bring in the humorous myth about the number 23 (how it’s magically related to everything). I really don’t understand non-base-10 number systems, in all honesty. I’m sure I could, if I cared to spend the time on it, but truth be told, I don’t.

    I think the joke fell flat.

    Actually, I am trying for witty and pithy posts because I am dying for Marina to make me a teacher’s pet in a video, so the name Prospero will live on in youtube glory forever. I have not yet succeeded in dazzling her though. :lol:

  • http://captainjack.ws captainjack

    :lol: LoL. I have to find that sticker and put it on the back of my sailboat. :lol: You want the Merchant Marine Cap back on? Ok sure. I just change out the pictures from time to time. I use the pirate outfit to entertain the passengers on the cruise ship. Funny thing is it fools some of the guest. I remember hearing about one ladies comment. “Who was that crew member?” someone replied “That’s the night Captain!” The lady gasped. :shock:

    What I wear is not a Coast Guard cap. It’s not a Navy cap either. Its a Merchant Marine cap. Many people say to me “Thanks for serving!”. I don’t correct them as I take the comment for when I served in the Persian Gulf back in 1988. MM cap is rarely used anymore. I’m trying to bring them back in use again by wearing it as often as I can tolerate it. Not very comfortable to wear. I do have to note that I can get dates very easy wearing it. The girls today still love a man in uniform.
    The darn thing cost $300 US dollars. Not many captains care to spend $1,000 for a complete uniform if your not required to wear one and second having made fun of from your peers. Of course the best comeback on that one is tell them how much action you get every night.

    Dear teacher
    As usual,…. you know what follows… interesting answer!
    Louis Paster was a scientist who created a way to store food without a fridge. In french it is “pasteurisation”, so I’ll try to translate : a pastorisation?
    Well, it allows to destroy the bacteria and it is often used for the milk. Thanks to that, no bacteria make the milk or food rot.
    I hope that it is the good answer.

  • beauregardrippey

    Not sure if this alternate theory has been mentioned yet, but I disagree with the San Rafael HS students theory because this one seems more plausible to me.
    I think it came from the Bob Dylan song, “Rainy Day Women #12 and 35″– the “Everybody Must Get Stoned” song. Multiply 12 by 35– you get 420.

  • caveman

    It comes from Latin: ad = to, and hominem is the accusative form of homo = man.

    It means an attack on your debate opponent, an attack to the man, rather than an attack on his argument. You make an ad hominem attack when your argument is too weak to stand on its own–you attack your opponent’s character rather than his argument, which is usually better than yours.

  • pennsyltucky9

    A classic example is the retort Dan Akroyd used to make in the Saturday Night Live panel debate skits from the old re-runs. Whenever he was losing the argument he’d say “Jane, you ignorant slut!” instead of coming up with a better argument.

    Catch-22 is a book by Joseph Heller written in 1961. It is a satire, set in World War II, that makes fun of bureaucratic absurdities and the no-win situations they create.

    Catch-22 is a reference to a bureaucratic catch that illustrates a bureaucracy so evolved that even the catches have official numbers for them.

    If I remember correctly, a pilot had to fly a mission. The only way to avoid flying a mission was to be crazy. If a pilot said he couldn’t fly a mission because he was crazy, it proved he was sane because a crazy person wouldn’t say he was crazy. Since the pilot was sane, he had to fly the mission. The only way to avoid flying a mission…

    About 30-35% of the weight of hempseed is hempseed oil or hemp oil, an edible oil that contains about 80% essential fatty acids (EFAs); i.e., linoleic acid, omega-6 (LA, 55%), alpha-linolenic acid, omega-3 (ALA, 22%), in addition to gamma-linolenic acid, omega-6 (GLA, 1-4%) and stearidonic acid, omega-3 (SDA, 0-2%).
