I've thought about doing this before. We'll see how it goes.

I have the liberty of teaching my students just about anything I want to. My job is to build vocabulary, correct pronunciation and get them talking. Today's topic is "Top Scientific Achievements". Feel free to weigh in with the one's you think are the biggest and why. Humor is definitely welcome.

I'll start out:

Penicillin: Because it cures "The Clap".

Aristotle - One of the great philosophers to inspire great scientists.

Frederick Gauss - The smartest person who ever lived. At the age of 7, his teacher asks "how many number between 1-100 can be added together to get one hundred. I'll let you think about this until i get back" .....well before the teacher left, Gauss raised his hands and gave the correct answer

James Maxwell - The best mathematician of all time (one of the beside other than Gauss). He united all the electromagnetic equations.

Faraday - This guy is a mathematic retard who head the Royal Society of Science. Maxwell helped him with the equation. But, he was the first one who envisioned electric fields.

Einstein - you know the reason....relativity....without relativity, we wouldn't have GPS sattelites

What was the first food 'micro-waved'?

popcorn!

"The fact that we are here today to debate raising America’s debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the U.S. Government can’t pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government’s reckless fiscal policies."

Senator Barack Obama
Senate Floor Speech on Public Debt

the moon landing

I'm using that as the greatest. Coupled with the conspiracy theories it should burn at least 30 minutes. I need 1.5 hours.

This is a real good topic and I should be able to draw them out easily with it.

Peace to All creatures great and small............................................

But when we turn to the Hebrew literature, we do not find such jokes about the donkey. Rather the animal is known for its strength and its loyalty to its master (Genesis 49:14; Numbers 22:30).
