A couple of things. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

First, 5^17<\/a>, thank you SO much for popping by! A very nice surprise. I hope all is well with you! xoxo <\/strong> I’ve heard a rumor you may be around. What joy it would be if I could see you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also, h^7<\/a>, you’ve peaked my interest with your reply to the coral post.<\/a> Would you be willing to share more about what you mean for humans to be able to live 1000 years?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, for today’s post: Is a cat a liquid or a solid? Hard to tell by this picture!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Marc-Antoine Fardin was awarded the Ig Nobel Prize<\/a> in physics by Harvard University for his research paper on the rheology of cats. (Rheology is a branch of physics that deals with the deformation and flow of matter, especially the non-Newtonian flow of liquids and the plastic flow of solids.) From the Ig Noble Prize page, “the Ig Noble Prize honors achievements that make people laugh and then think. The prizes are intended to celebrate the unusual, honor the imaginative \u2014 and spur people’s interest in science, medicine, and technology. ” <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This one certainly made me laugh! How about you? \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n\n\n\n
