just saw this in an email...

Best award ever: In 1962, astronaut John Glenn was awarded his weight in Cuban cigars after his history-making space flight. This was just one year before the embargo on Cuban cigars.

[ER Doc]

earth-bound weight, I'm assuming... :nodlaugh:

 

[Clint]

His weight on earth or on the moon?

:stretchgr

 

[dpricenator]

dayum. how many cigars equals 270 lbs? I would need a ned wine cooler for that prize.

 

[r3db4r0n]

I don't think I would ever smoke through that in a life time lol

 

[ER Doc]

average cuban cigar is about 15 grams

270 pounds is 122 kilograms

so...that should be about 8100 cigars to equal 270 pounds

 

[Treinenwj]

Wow, nice!

 

[Clint]

...But on the moon, that's like 3 sticks.

Don't even get me started on Jupiter....

avg one a day he would have been out by his presidential run

 

[Doctor Zhivago]

he didn't even do anything.....

"He's such a hero, he went to SPACE!!! OMFG not space?!?!?!?! Holy sh!t is he ok??? SPACE IS DANGEROUS!!!

He battled the evil Space creatures from the 2nd galaxy. After his crew was defeated, he alone stood against the invading alien threat. He then killed 4,378 aliens with an American Flag while singing God Bless America."

What a hero!

I tied my shoes today, where's my cubans?
