No, but now I know what it sounds like when Santa has an orgasm.

Turns out it looks a lot like when Isaac Newton bounces a giant boulder off the bottom of a shallow river.

Did it really "skip" across the river, or was it just large enough (or positioned correctly) that it rolled or pivoted across the riverbed and the drag from the water wasn't enough to slow its roll before it came out the other side?

I imagine it would look like whatever the fantasy storyteller wanted to make it look like. But then again, if the story is stupid, hopeless and used to commit all manner of crimes in the world, then who wants to listen to such a sh*t story like that anyway?

Well it has already been said twice but we know these things are supposed to come in 3s so yeah, there was no skipping. The boulder just rolled across the river bed.

Good thing they showed the slow-motion replay with the boulder highlighted. I'm sure many of us never would have seen it otherwise.

Oh, why would God do that? He's good. He could skip stones the length of a river. He's no feeb, like George Washington, who allegedly threw a dollar across the Potomac, but not the length of the river.

Is there such a thing as a wrong thread on Fark? I'm guessing that it is rare to be able to prove such a thing without a confession.

Water can be as tough as concrete if you hit it fast and hard enough. Maybe the river bed did not come into play. Just saying.

Looks like it did roll through the river rather than bounce. Trees obscure the view somewhat.

Not really

I was wondering more what the US would look like if we took all the money used for religion & sports to use for a socialist system while practicing population control.

And ass eating
I was also wondering about ass eating.

I hate it when people compare Freddie Mercury to God.
I mean, God is pretty amazing, but he's no Freddie Mercury.
