Back to being a kid
« on: August 30, 2007, 05:44:26 PM »
I've just spent an enjoyable hour with little Berek launching water rockets, great fun, I got soaked. We discovered that using a compressor results in a greater distance than using a normal bicycle pump.. whistle:

You would be far better off tying a a slice of buttered toast to the cats's back

Buttered toast always lands butter side down

cat's always land on their feet

Perpetual motion.. cat and toast hover inches from the ground!

I?m afraid that Mythbusters proved that toast doesn?t always land butter-side-down.  noooo:

No harm in throwing a load of cats off tall buildings to test that bit tho?  whistle:
