I'm done Len.

Who is Joel?

daddy?
len?
sammi?

Why doesn't daddy accept the answer "Have him send the money to Mike"?
What is the question that must apparently be answered yes or no?

Am I asking too many questions?

That's all I wanted. Though I was obviously kidding I thought it was fun to show what your reaction would be if Joe had done what you did, arbitrarily send the funds to someone and demand the same.

Anyway, I expected more laughs outta this than I got. You're no fun.

And with that we end tonights edition of Lendaddy theater, see you next week.

Are you Joel?

I'm Joel

Sammi is my dog

The question was whether or not Shaun and Joe had agreed on sending the money to Lubemaster.

no

And for the record soylent green is people.

If I weren't so tired, it would have been more fun. Maybe next time.

Joe knows his place, where to send the check, to whom it should be made. He's not to be trusted, even if you are on his side. You would think loneliness would breed loyalty, but is just ain't so.

I don't have a side, I do think you're going to lose $500 though. To tell the truth I don't know Joe even as well as I know you, but I don't think you're being very straight up with him on this.

But most importantly I am just trying to entertain myself while waiting for an Ebay auction to end.

I am a multi faceted personality. I am him and he is me.

Now Len, you know full well that isn't the question.

Sure it was, what do you think the question was? And for kicks answer that one anyway

What is the air speed of a swallow?

I've already answered it. The fact is Joe is one person in PM (nice, calm) and another on the board (abusive, scary).

[lendaddy]

Airspeed can be predicted using a published formula. By inverting this midpoint Strouhal ratio of 0.3 (fA/U ¡Ö 0.3), Graham K. Taylor et al. show that as a rule of thumb, the speed of a flying animal is roughly 3 times frequency times amplitude (U ¡Ö 3fA).5


We now need only plug in the numbers:


U ¡Ö 3fA
f ¡Ö 15 (beats per second)
A ¡Ö 0.22 (meters per beat)
U ¡Ö 3*15*0.22 ¡Ö 9.9

... to estimate that the airspeed velocity of an unladen European Swallow is 10 meters per second.

[lendaddy]

However....

An actual study of two European Swallows flying in a low-turbulence wind tunnel in Lund, Sweden, shows that swallows flap their wings much slower than my estimate, at only 7–9 beats per second:

“Compared with other species of similar size, the swallow has quite low wingbeat frequency and relatively long wings.” 7
The maximum speed the birds could maintain was 13–14 meters per second, and although the Lund study does not discuss cruising flight in particular, the most efficient flapping (7 beats per second) occurred at an airspeed in the range of 8–11 meters per second, with an amplitude of 90–100° (17–19 cm).


So it's really a "give or take" thing.

Humor me, was that a yes or a no?

Maybe the swallow is delivering Joe's check to Mike ...
