The speed of light is like, uh, really fast. However, according to someone who might work at the CERN lab, it may be possible to exceed the speed of light as measured between some electrons that have switched polarity. Now if you wish to grease THOSE suckers, good luck. Maybe that's where the term 'Godspeed' comes from?
Unless there are herds of pig-like creatures hiding in the thicker clouds I doubt there ever was such a thing. Of course, if one was dislodged by a particularly near lightning strike, that could be the origin of the flying pig legend. But thanks for the question Jugs - keep them coming. I guess tomorrow's the day a pig lands on my lawn - and won't I look the foolish one then?
