The “experiement” didn’t fail. It accomplished exactly what Caulfield expected.

a mad scientist

I get the feeling Caulfield knew EXACTLY what he was doing.

Little Boy Blew A noisy air horn The bun’s in the air The coffee is worn Where is the boy who craves special attention? He’s happily on his way down to detention.

3Cheers for Arianne’s poem! Hip, Hip, Hooray!

Remember, Caulfield:

“Failure is always an option.”

There is no such thing as failure, there is only information.

I have a feeling that Caulfield doesn’t really consider this a failure.

“There are two possible outcomes: If the result confirms the hypothesis, then you’ve made a measurement. If the result is contrary to the hypothesis, then you’ve made a discovery.”—Enrico Fermi

You can get horns like that and mount them under your car. Google “train horn pranks”.

Whether Caulfield knew what he was doing or was just trying to be helpful, what he did was cruel, and detention at the lease would seem appropriate.

In the words of Adam Savage, failure is always an option.

@ Manhunter808, Bdaysuit, LeoAutodidact, emjayceee, You guys are too sweet! That was so silly I almost didn’t post it. Thank-you for making me feel less goofy. •◡•

win, more like a mad teacher…

That breally is kind of a mean think to do. Not really like Caufield…But I think he should apologize….

Nice horn Caulifield!

When the doctors are trying to determine the cause of her massive hemorrhagic stroke, will she be able to remember this day?

“Experiments never fail; experimenters sometimes fail. That is because experiments are determined by the laws of physics.” – Julius Sumner Miller, many times on the Steve Allen show. I learned more physics from that, and Two for Physics, than I ever did in school.

time to accidently pour a cup of Iced coffee on his head.

Wonderful poem Arianne, should be set to music – oh, wait, this should work.

hippogriff, thanks….I needed that! That is so true and so easy to forget…It really is how you view things sometimes, isn’t it? Physics can’t be wrong. Only our interpretation can…..

@ A StarofDestiny, Night-Guant49, underwriter, jeremymlad, K M, Thank-you, too. (You’re so kind, and I’m embarrassed it’s so silly. But you made my day! :⋅) underwriter – I wasn’t able to open your link. My son will help me with it when he has time. ( I’m afraid I’m just this side of being computer-illiterate, learning bit by bit.)I am hoping and expecting it will be the same tune that I learned as a child, and sang to my children. Those early, simple songs and rhymes really stick with you. Thanks for posting that link!

I think I’m unsubscribing from this strip. Caufield is just turning into a wise ass jerk, and it’s just getting mean spirited towards teachers.
