Red and Rover by Brian Basset for July 12, 2012
Transcript:
Rover, stop what you're doing. I have something I want to show you using dad's inflatable globe. This spot here marks about where you're digging. If I were to poke mom's knitting needle straight through to the other side, it would come out in the ocean, not China. Oops. Let me know when you hear dad's car pulling up.

A slow boat to China might be a viable option now, boys!

…and just think…for a moment Red had the whole world in his hands.

Hiding in a hole in the earth for poking a hole in the earth. That blows my mind.

Actually he’s right, most spots in america would come out the other side in the ocean.

That’s what I said. Don’t they listen? Of course not.

Since most of the Earth’s surface is water, and most of the land mass is in the northern hemisphere, everyone is more likely to come out in water.

I thought that I was the only one who had an inflatable globe back in the 50s and early 60s.

Yeah oops!

But think on the bright side. Rover could have gotten an honorary civil engineering degree (a first for a dog) for draining an ocean!

OOPS. Covers so many mistakes. Quick get out the scotch tape to really cover the hole! Red you may have seen a magician do that trick in the sweet spot of a balloon, looks like it will not work with the good old inflated globe.

Does this mean if Rover did dig to the Indian Ocean, that it would cause the US to be flooded? Or would gravity keep all the water in the center of the earth instead of gravitating to the other side?
