Wow, after years of Latin, finally found a use for it! Some of the Roman Emperors were quite strange, but Nero or Caligula take the show.... Nero's Biography

Can you clarify? Do you mean moving actual earth mass, or just mass that is in earth's gravitational field?

No, because once a house is consumed by fire, it goes down and thus, house burning down. The "burning" bit doesn't refer to the fire. You can say, however, burning house goes up in smokes.

If you raze a building, you tear it down.

If you raise a barn, you are a Quaker.(Not like those shiftless menonnites!)

A Top Fuel dragster intakes as much air in the 1/4 mile to fill the Goodyear blimp.

Fish flakes you feed to fish are made from real fish parts...

Girl Scout cookies you feed to girls aren't made from real Girl Scouts.

The microwave oven was invented because some scientist, who didn't know where he was, happened to be standing too close to a cathode ray tube had his candy bar melt in his pocket.

The deadlist creature on the face of the Earth to Man is the Hippo.. kills more humans per year then anything else.

Bill Gates is secretly homosexual.
