Jupiter does not orbit the Sun. In fact, the Sun and Jupiter orbit a point 107% of the sun's radius due Jupiter's mass.

Same is true of all the planets. They all orbit the center of mass of the Solar System.

Earth's orbit around the sun is not outside of the sun's mass though. Jupiter's is. Anyway, title of the thread bro!

Actually, as I posted the first time, ALL the planets orbit the center of mass of the Solar System. So ALL the planets orbit the same point (as does the sun itself).

So, title of the thread my arse. Next time make sure you are right when you try to correct someone.

Stop hijacking the thread. Technically Jupiter does not orbit the Sun, it orbits a spot at the center of gravity of the two, which is just outside the surface of the Sun. For all intents and purposes it still orbits the Sun.

Stop it.

There are men between the ages of 40 and 50 who are divorced, broke and date women because they will pick up the tab for dinner, pay for airline tickets and be their sugar mama. It's sad, but true.

Men date women for more than sex. They date because a woman has money as well.

I can remember Jim Ryun's splits in his first WR mile, some fifty years ago now. (Those would be 57.9, 1:55.5, 2:55.3, 3:51.3.)

However, I cannot remember what I had for dinner last night.

Herbert Hoover's grandson is still living- and ran over a bike rider in Deer Creek Canyon in Jefferson County, Colorado during a road rage incident. And his house burned down in a forest fire.
