or, hrm, I mean: Thrilling! Amasing what todays sience can do. I guess the rotation is caused by the rotation of earth when it is floating in it's frictionless state. Judging from how fast it picks up speed I guess the film is recorded far north or south on the earth, where the rotation is the fastest. Actually one of my friends saw a guy do a similiar trick, it looked really amazing he said! | ||

bannanas make you trip?? Chemical analysis of the banana that caused my psychosis last Thursday is still ongoing, and so far five different psychoactive compounds have been discovered. It is obvious that there is a real danger here that more people may accidentally fall victim to the effects of this latest instance of a growing phenomenon which scientists have dubbed "altered fruit". We can prevent more accidental poisonings, but everyone has to do their part. Please print this sign and place it on top of your microwave: I feel that I should apologize for yesterday's post. While all of the information was technically factual, the manner in which it was presented was entirely unprofessional and inappropriate. Although I am not one to make excuses, there is a logical explanation for my odd behavior: I was having a psychotic episode. Here's what happened. I had bought some bananas a few days ago, and I had left them in the window to ripen. Before I got around to eating the last banana, it was quite ripe, and knowing the dangers of overripe bananas (strychnine poisoning), I brought it in away from the window. I placed it on top of my microwave, not realizing the peril that lay in such an action, and didn't give it another thought. Yesterday afternoon, I ate that banana, and, well, you know the rest. As it turns out, placing a banana on top of your microwave and then running the microwave for around 40 minutes (total), apparently causes powerful psychoactives to be produced within the fruit. I brought the unfinished banana into the lab at the Foundation for Research Advancing Unexplored Disciplines, where I help out in my spare time (you can thank RAUDFound for some of the more impressive Undeniable Fridays ... including today's!), where the good people in the Spectral Analysis Department are working on solving the mystery. I've seen their initial results, and let me tell you: it looks pretty bleak. While the effects of the compromised banana are completely harmless, and almost unimaginably pleasant (the word euphoria comes to mind), I feel obligated to warn my readers away from trying this themselves. This is a drug, and as everyone knows, drugs are bad. Labels: banana, drugs, psychosis, RAUDFound, retraction ...someone try this. and let me know. i would but i have no bannanas. | ||

about the apple rotating because of the rotation of the earth, that's like saying if jump straight up, i'll automatically start rotating. I think it's more because the surface of the apple is not perfect so the rising "heavy" gas causes it to spin. It's kind of like if you blow air from beneath a pingpong ball, it'll levitate. If you put divots in the pingpong ball, it'll spin while levitating. | ||

The only thing that could make an apple flying would be a reaction like when you put a mentos into a coca cola bottle. But that's more like the principle of an explosion which is clearly not the case here. | ||
