how will the wolf survive?

Fun Facts and Activities
New 700 Mile Mexican Border Fence Edition!


Math Fun!
Q: If you own a car that can drive at 350 mph, how long will it take you to cross the fence?

A: About 30 minutes if you tunnel under it; approx. 2 minutes if you climb over it. Neither of these would involve your car. (It would take you two hours to drive the length of the fence.)
--------
Q: If the security wall weighs one ton for every ten square feet, how much heavier will the Earth be when it is completed?

A: 369,600 tons, but only if the wall is constructed of lunar concrete and meteorite rebar, as called for in the original design.
Good fences make good neighbors?
Did you know that Robert Frost's famous line from "Mending Walls" was intended to be ironic? He actually believed that fences created bad relationships between neighbors, just as he believed that taking the road less travelled made little to no difference.

History Hoopla!

This is not the first such border in history. The Great Wall of China, the Berlin Wall, and the New Orleans levees are some other great public works projects built to keep out unwanted intruders. Can you name more?

Trivia
Can you guess which of these is not the name of a rock band?
-700 Miles of Fence
-30 Odd Foot of Grunts
-10,000 Maniacs

Challenge!
Try repeating this spicy racist tongue twister three times fast, if you're not too busy taking a siesta:
"Mexican wrecks of men oversexed Texan friends; cross rivers, bras quiver, Chorizo sausage," Juan said.

Lost In Translation!
Unscramble these British terms to reveal a single border-related phrase:

007 limes offence



(Answer: 700 miles of fence)
