    This is how:

    Doctor: Hey Wilson, your rehab would be a lot better with this drug but the NBA just added it to the ban list.

    Chandler: Did you say they just added it? Perfect, I either don't get caught or I have my excuse already.

    Guess he won't be a blazer next summer. At least you know he's not going to run very far

    I wonder what percentages of women who say threatening things to their men get arrested? Cousins needs to go MGTOW.

    My math: Including mortar, a brick is about 24 in^2. 8627 x 24 = 207048, which is the perimeter * the height of the structure. If the height is 8' = 96 in, then the perimeter is 207048/96 = 2156.75 in. Divide by 4 to account for the 4 sides (assuming a square house), and you get 539.1875 inches, or 44.9322916667 feet. Square that number to get the number of square feet, and, I get 2019 square feet. Minor overestimating of the mortar, but nowhere near their number.

    Your calculation requires approximately 5/8" of mortar between each brick; the poster's calculation utilized about 5/16" between. Who's to say which is more reasonable? Also, you calculated a square house, whereas the other guy used approximately a 2:1 length/width ratio. That also significantly impacts square footage.

    Not surprising that changing variables changes the result.

    The last week for Nets has me feeling even better about betting the under on them (44.5).

    If they sign Carmelo...lock it in.

    WestBrick, Part Deux:
    According to this, he will make $171,139,920 in the next 4 years. If he's paid in Lincoln cents, can his brick house hold it all?

    $171139920 x 100 cents/$ x .360 cm^2/cent = 61610371200 cm^2 x (1 in/2.54 cm)^2 = 9549626635.25 in^2 x (1 ft/12 in)^2 = 66,316,851.6 ft^2
    which no freaking way will fit.

    How about dollar bills?
    According to this:
    So, $.171 Billion would make up about .171*1250 m^3 = 214 m^3 = 7557.339 ft³. With 8 ft ceilings, that's 945 ft^2, which would fit snugly in a 10 x 10 room with an 8 ft ceiling.

    Didn't double check the math.
