Not accounting for acceleration, how fast does it have to go over the second mile to average 60 MPH for the whole course?

Good morning friends.

no clue on the riddle...not even sure I want to attempt it.

I'm gearing up for the upcoming Big East and NCAA tournaments!

SU had a nice win over Georgetown over the weekend. Two regular season games left - a BIG one agains Notre Dame and then Rutgers. Then the tournies!

I LOVE this time of year for sports!

I will be setting up a room on ESPN for the NCAA's. When I get it set up, I'll ask you to send me a PM and I can share the room and password with you and we can have a little contest to see who can make the best picks!

It is bitter cold here. 1 degree with wind chills of -25. Schools are on a one-hour delay.

It was in the 40's here yesterday!!

 

[dianeschlicht]

Morning, meister and friends! Cold here too, but at least above zero (just barely)! A little snow too. That should help it look clean again.

Numbers! Why did it have to be numbers????

 

[Lars624]

Hey Bernie-I think you should save up all of these math riddles and run them between April 7th and 11th hee hee

 

[gina2000]

BERRRRRRRNIE!!!!!!! NO ONE DRIVES 30MPH HERE! YOU'D GET RUN OVER!!!!!!


My beloved Georgetown.....sniff....sniff....


I just hate a happy BB Riddlemeister!!!!


It rained cats and dogs here yesterday so I don't think it was nearly as cold as you guys have been experiencing. Please tell me it's NOT coming here. Pretty please????

 

[gina2000]

BTW.....the Knicks retired PATRICK EWING'S number on Friday night!

Great ceremony!
