There are no other "guests" here; I am a freak

[sofia]

well, well, well…what’s it they say about the cat being gone and the mice? whatever…
anyway, i’ve got a little catching up to do:

Crunchy: thank you for the pit. i hope it’s the closest i ever get to the other place.

Ogre: thanks for giving him the idea…i think.

Chefguy: i happen to like Gabby. especially when they did a knock-off character of him in disney’s robin hood…“watch where yer aimin’ the thing, trigger!”

jellyblue: yeah…it’s just green…no lime…trust me.

Ruby: irreverent…cool.

QED: thanks for the conversions. now i know why my back hurts…

Dan Turk: thanks for reminding me…Hi Opal!

Crunchy: thank you for the pit.

Wow, never heard that phrase before.

@sofia

oh…and Crunchy, although you may not see them…you may imagine them all you like.

Free license to undress her with my mind! Ohhhh yeah! That’s the most action I’ve seen since I rented Porky’s 2!

@Kaotic Newtral

Oooh! And knows D&D to a point. Fetch the goats, dart guns and brownies for the ceremony!

Better goat fetching than goat felching.

@jellyblue

Now wait just one cotton-pickin’ minute! I lurked around for damn well near a year before I signed up a few months ago, paying promptly with credit card, not unwieldy coin, and what did I get?

No mentor! (I want my mentor!)
No lime jello!
No small rodents or assorted animals of sacrifice of any kind!
And definitely, definitely no spanking!

I’m pissed.

Sigh Welcome to SDMB, Sofia

It’s because I joined when it was only five bucks, isn’t it?

Aww, sorry, jellyblue. Here, have a beer and some brownies. Feel better now?

@BiblioCat

Aww, sorry, jellyblue. Here, have a beer and some brownies. Feel better now?

Mmm! Beer & brownies!! Thanks, Bibliocat…

ambles off, munching, in search of mentor, green jello, sacrificial wildlife and, uh, other things…

you guys can keep the pitting, thanks

@Q.E.D.

Well, assuming the minimum number of coins, and current issue dates:

59 quarters @ 5.71 g ea. = 336.89 g
2 dimes @ 2.26 g ea. = 4.54 g

Total = 341.41 g or 12.04 oz. or .75 lb.

QED, why am I not surprised that you’re the one who figured that out?

Welcome, sofia. The BBQ Pit can be very funny, and beware of Great Debates, unless you have an armload of cites at your fingertips.

[Q.E.D]

Being even more bored than usual today, I hacked up a little program to calculate the masses of all coin combinations of quarters, nickels and dimes which add up to $14.95 with the following results:

Number of combinations: 4,060
Highest mass: 1495.00 g (0 quarters, 0 dimes, and 299 nickels)
Lowest mass: 337.93 g (1 quarteer, 147 dimes, and 0 nickels)

If this isn’t mundane and pointless, I don’t know what is!

[sofia]

mudane…pointles…yes.

but you don’t have to lug that purse around.
(thanks for the heads-up, ivylass)

[buttonjockey308]

Welcome Sofia! It’s good to have someone so…blah, blah, blah…so enjoy your time here and, I’m sure you’ll…blah, blah, blah, blah…for the boards.

Good Goddess, it must be late, I just pictured Q.E.D. puking up code out onto green shag carpeting. I need sleep.

[Scuba_Ben]

For completeness, $14.95 with Sacagawea dollar coins:

14 golden dollars @ 8.1 g = 113.4 g (Specs)
3 quarters @ 5.71 g = 17.13 g
2 dimes @ 2.26 g = 4.52 g

Total mass = 135.05 g, weighing 4.82 oz.

[don_t_ask]

Has anyone pitted sofia yet?

Why not?
