I operate on 1/2 B.P.
I was looking at my garage door opener motor thing the other day and I noticed it said "1/2 H.P." And I thought, 1/2 horse power? What is that? Is that the power of half a horse? So I started thinking about half of a horse. And I thought, well there's the front half and the back half:

Great train of thought, way cool. And thanks for the laugh, I needed that today :)
I remember when I replaced my garage door opener at my condo, I got the cheapest one they had at Home Depot, but apparently it was still more HP than the one I replaced. Damn near threw the garage door into the canyon!
