Start Planning for World Jump Day

Don't forget that World Jump Day is less than a week away- time to get ready. This could be bigger than Y2K- 600 million people jumping up and down at the exact second. The plan is to move the earth into a bigger orbit, reducing global warming. We expect falling buildings, complete failure of the worldwide GPS system and the loss of California. Stock up on food and water and stay outside in open places. Note that the time calculator on the site does not account for daylight savings time. Sign on at :World Jump Day -they are still 7 million jumpers short.

Aint' this an old joke?
Veeeeeryy funnny anyhow.
So I guess not one of them read up on Newton's third law of physics (equal an opposite reaction)?
Well, if they had read up on Newton's laws, at least they're not implying that we should attract a giant meteor to smack into us.
Besides from the Earth being really really big and humans being really really small in comparison, how would all these folks jumping at once do anything positive? Even if you gathered everyone at the same spot and then jumped, still wouldn't do anything.
Bah...there I go digging into jokes again instead of just laughing and moving on.
