Reality Check by Dave Whamond for July 17, 2023

Ralph has a twin?

Ralph is that your cousin up in the tree. If it is get him to drop that apple on, Newton’s head. Lets get this over with.

Isaac Newton: The Asian Version.

A mathematician at rest tends to stay at rest. . .

maybe it is me but that apple does not look like it is lined up on his head

When did Ike lose the beard?

Guardian Angloes?

So, I guess we can actually float?

That woulda been nice to know BEFORE turning my lawn mower into a helicopter!

The people are floating because gravity hasn’t been invented yet? Is that what’s going on?

well, not THAT head

How come Sir Isaac isn’t floating? And the squirrel in the tree?

We’re just floating around here, waiting.

They are floating because he hasn’t discovered gravity yet, it will be their downfall.

LOL!

Maybe Ralph can give the apple a little nudge….when no one is looking…

The treed Ralph is wondering “What the Fig …?”

Either they’re just ghosting him, or he’s just asleep at the gravity switch.

It might not happen ’til the fall.

Just like a hundred years ago, based on photos and films, people anxiously awaited seeing this thing called colour. When the British Redcoats advanced, it was hard to tell.

Who are the ghosts?

Gravity is what holds us all down. We could use less of it, IMO.

Newton discovered that the force that holds us to the Earth and the force that keeps the plants in their orbits is the same force. Before him, these were thought to be unrelated phenomena.

Reminiscent of this Golden Oldie:

“Did you know it’s the Law of Gravity that keeps us from flying off the surface of the Earth?”

“Really? What did people do before the law was passed?”
