Rough equivalents

Just found this cool website - Rough Equivalents. It's a blog that gives you equivalents like:
  • 25,000 hours is how long it takes to cook half-a-million three-minute eggs... in a row.
  • 25,000 hours is 180 million split seconds.
  • 25,000 hours at two maximum strength Tylenols every 4 hours for pain is a 3 month old baby made entirely of Tylenol.
It also has fun facts and ideas like "How much toilet paper is the war in Iraq costing?" Or, "If Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers. How many pickled peppers did Peter Piper pick?" And, "What IS your weight in gold?" All kinds of great (and useful) stuff.
