Measuring Units

 
Haha nice. Modern units of measurement.. some are pretty funny:
 
2,000 pounds of Chinese soup = won ton
 
Half of a large intestine = 1 semicolon
 
1,000 aches = 1 kilohurtz
 
2,000 mockingbirds = Two kilomockingbirds
 
1 millionth of a fish = 1 microfiche
 
10 rations = 1 decoration
 
8 nickels = 2 paradigms
 
100 Senators = not 1 decision
 
And the last one...

3 statute miles of intravenous surgical tubing at Yale University Hospital = 1 IV league
