The fiber described is similar to spider silk, but actually enhanced with the use of crystallized amyloid protein. Interestingly, these exact same crystals are likely involved in Alzheimer’s Disease.

What purpose would the WUSL bacteria serve?

Every Solar System has to have an oddball

Nothing grabs the attention of potential, young astronomers better than telling them “Uranus is sideways.”

I’ll bet Ronnie was a bench warmer during that game

And the connection between Venus and Uranus should be kept under wraps.

Take care, may renowned researcher Alfred “No! Not There!” Kinseyord be with you, and gesundheit.

Planets are like the balls on a pool table, the spin depends on how they encountered other “balls”.

Those engineers had to come up with something to stop all of the bullets flying around there.

Stronger than steel and tougher than Kevlar® by which measurements?

While on my side my anus is stationary.

It’s getting a little late in the day so I’m not sure if anyone else will read this, but let’s taxi it out onto the tarmac and see if anyone notices.

A couple in their nineties are both having problems remembering things. So during a check-up, the doctor tells them that they’re physically okay, but they might want to start writing things down to help them remember.

Later that night, while watching TV, the old man gets up from his chair. ‘Want anything while I’m in the kitchen ?’ he asks.

‘Will you get me a bowl of ice cream?’

‘Sure.’

’Don’t you think you should write it down so you can remember it?’ she asks.

‘No, I can remember it.’

‘Well, I’d like some strawberries on top, too. Maybe you should write it down, so as not to forget it?’.

He says, ‘I can remember that. You want a bowl of ice cream with strawberries.’

’I’d also like whipped cream. I’m certain you’ll forget that, write it down?’, she asks.

Irritated, he says, ‘I don’t need to write it down, I can remember it! Ice cream with strawberries and whipped cream – I got it, for goodness sake!’

Then he toddles into the kitchen. After about 20 minutes, the old man returns from the kitchen and hands his wife a plate of bacon and eggs. She stares at the plate for a moment.

’Where’s my toast?’

my anus doesn’t spin on it’s side….ba dum tss
