blade (Edward M. Lee):
HEAVY METAL
I was walking down the street,
And I saw my girlfriend
In a car with another guy.
So I picked a baseball bat
And smashed the car to pieces.
Then I picked a hockey stick
And mutilated the guy,
Then mutilated my girlfriend
(For being with another guy).
For a while after,
I felt great,
I felt like a winner,
But then I felt sad...

celine (Robert Fullmer):
"Our journeys to the stars will be made on spaceships created by determined,
hardworking scientists and engineers applying the principles of science, not
aboard flying saucers piloted by little gray aliens from some other dimension."
-- Robert A. Baker, "The Aliens Among Us: Hypnotic Regression Revisited",
The Skeptical Inquirer, Vol. XII, No. 2

chrissu (Christopher S Urban):
The Deal: "Now I really have to go," she says.
"I wish you didn't."
"Me too." She steps forward and kisses you. You return
the kiss and prolong it. Time passes. You become aroused. You
consider asking her back to your apartment, and think better of it.
You want to leave this flawless evening intact. Already you are
thinking of the walk home, the review of details and nuances in
bed before you sleep, of the phone call which you promised to make
tomorrow morning. You are thinking that MIT can go to hell
because tonight you are happy.

Stephen Wright quotes:
"I replaced the headlights in my car with strobe lights. Now it looks
like I'm the only one moving."
"I used to be a bartender at the Betty Ford Clinic."
"I put contact lenses in my dog's eyes. They had little pictures of cats
on them. Then I took one out and he ran around in circles."

lwvanels (Lucien W. Van Elsen):
There are those who think that life is nothing left to chance,
A host of holy horrors to direct our aimless dance.
A planet of playthings,
We dance on the strings
Of powers we cannot conceive.
"The stars aren't aligned
Or the gods are malign"-
Blame is better to give than receive.
You can choose a ready guide in some celestial voice.
If you choose not to decide, you still haven't made a choice.
You can choose from phantom fears and kindness that can kill;
I will choose a path that's clear-
I will choose Free Will.
There are those who think that they were dealt a losing hand,
The cards were stacked against them- they weren't born in lotus-land.
All preordained-
A prisoner in chains-
A victim of venomous fate.
Kicked in the face,
You can't pray for a place
In heaven's unearthly estate.
Each of us-
A cell of awareness-
Imperfect and incomplete.
Genetic blends
With uncertain ends
On a fortune hunt that's far too fleet.
-Rush, "Free Will"

4. TO BOUNCE SLINKY UP AND DOWN
Hold a few coils tightly in one hand, but allowing rest of Slinky to hang
down. Now, in a bouncing motion, move hand slowly up and down.
