Some baseball player 'wanna be' stud was telling me how great a baseball player he was. I said "Oh yeah, what d'ya say we go to the parking lot and see who can throw a rock the farthest?"..

Well, I out-threw him by quite a bit. There was a four lane boulevard with a high school field across the street. Both of our rocks hit the field but mine went farther. And he agreed I beat him.

Also, I once skipped a rock on a river that bounced at least 22 times before stopping. My dad was in shock and said "I've never seen a rock skip that many times before".. Plus or minus 22, because the skips are so rapid it's nearly impossible to count.

Does everyone like my contribution to this silly thread?

I contributed as well (post #15). And in a way you’ve got to feel a bit sorry for the original poster, and for all original posters. You post something serious, and then the next thing you know it’s Comedy Central.

But it’s the American way to find something humorous in every situation. I really think it’s one thing that makes us strong.

One Mile with a 300 Win Mag. With my own arm center field to home plate when I was young years ago. I could not do that today.

Question for Freepers of knowledge and physics. Whom hit the longest golf ball drive ever and where. It was a hell of long drive for the ball and to get to the golf course.
