On TOP of the world!

Posted by curtm on August 21, 2006, at 17:41:53

I was looking for the TOP of the world, so I took out my map of Earth and looked everywhere on it!

It doesnt say anywhere which part of Earth is the TOP!

So I sat down to ponder and put down the map.

I asked a passing wiseman, "Excuse me. Do you know where I can find the TOP of the world?"

He smiled and replied, "The TOP of the world is always beneath your feet."

How do you keep from falling off the earth? Gravity ? How does it work? And is it the north or south pole? Love Phillipa

That's a nice one curtm. I was just thinking about the riddle where you walk south 1 mile, west one mile, north 1 mile, and end up at the same place you started.

-ll slightly north and far east of Curtm's top-o-the-world.

p.s. noneuclidean geometry- how big does a building have to be before the curvature of the earth becomes a factor?
