Canada & Mexico touch so a tie for the closet and Russia is about 55 miles from Alaska at it's closest points

I mean. You can technically circle the board with some pieces. Not a good chess game, but you could do it. Seems like the number of possible chess games could be infinite.

Shuffling a deck of cards and the odds…

quote:

How unique is a random shuffle? The chances that anyone has ever shuffled a pack of cards (fairly) in the same way twice in the history of the world, or ever will again, are infinitesimally small. The number of possible ways to order a pack of 52 cards is ’52!’ (“52 factorial”) which means multiplying 52 by 51 by 50… all the way down to 1. The number you get at the end is 8×10^67 (8 with 67 ‘0’s after it), essentially meaning that a randomly shuffled deck has never been seen before and will never be seen again. So next time you shuffle a deck, you should feel pretty special for holding something so unique! Try for yourself – if you make friends with every person on earth and each person shuffles one deck of cards each second, for the age of the Universe, there will be a one in a trillion, trillion, trillion chance of two decks matching.

One could argue that it actually takes less effort.

Big Diomede is owned by Russia while Little Diomede is owned by the US. These islands are about 2.5 miles apart.

Bears have been known to attack man, although the fact is that fewer people have been killed by bears than in all of world war 1 and 2 combined. It is estimated that bears attack 2 million salmon a year. Attacks by salmon on bears are much more rare.

Dogs can have varying number of nipples. I have a dog with 10 nipples and did NOT know that was normal until a year ago.
It isn't related to breed/size either. pups from same litter may have different # nipples.

Yup, the women are in the wrong here. To lift it, men must fight gravity.

Gravity does all the work for women.

Leave it up
