What Ted Haggard May Have Been Searching For

Don't know if it's true, but it's out there in a George Bush Google blog search.

The Answer to George Bush's Eye-plank Growth Problem

On Tuesday, Abe Linkum presented a problem for readers to solve that calculates the growth rate of the plank in George Bush's eye as the religious right closes in on Ground Zero. Since nobody came up with the correct answer, no one receives the autographed picture of Abe.

Here is the answer key along with the original schematic --


Using the Pythagorean Theorem and differentiating with respect to time:

w^2 + p^2 = b^2 = 400
2w(dw/dt) + 2p(dp/dt) = 0
w(dw/dt) + p(dp/dt) = 0

Now, solve for 'dp/dt' given that dw/dt = -30 ft/s, w = 1 and p = sq.root of 399 by the Pythagorean Theorem:

1(-30) + (sq.root of 399)(dp/dt) = 0

So, dp/dt = 30/(sq.root of 399) or approximately 1.5 ft/s. That means that the plank in George Bush's eye is growing at this rate when the religious right is 1 ft. away from George Bush's vision.

Megachuch Pastor: Haggard in Sexual Morass!

Here we are once again with the focus on the family, set by sanctimonious religious leaders demanding that everyone bend to their vision of godliness, being just a bit off. This time it's mega-monsterchurch, evangelical, refracted pastor Ted Haggard of New Life Church based in Colorado Springs, CO -- the Mecca of American evangels.

Pastor Ted is accused of carrying an affair with a gay prostitute. Classy! The pastor has issued the obligatory statement of denial.
