if the toast has not yet been buttered, when dropped would it have landed on the side that would have been buttered or the side that would not have been ?????

or maybe a black box with a vial containing cyanide gas and a quantum electron detector! Oh! and a mechanism to release the gas should the detector go off! :eek:
O! bollozx! NO! you are right! Or maybe a tin of lighter fluid and a match! Quantum THERMO DYNAMICS! :D DOGS ROOL!

gawd gypsy we were just discussing this cat problem on the way back from cookie's funeral....was all Mr Pharmacist's fault....



my daughter's first word was toast

and she never dropped it, or if she did her mouth would catch it on the way down, so it never got to land

sheesh, was just talking about that at the Rottum Rally

maybe I just have a very narrow life?

lol

or even

when you measure something you change it so you can't know what it really is

the doro simplified version of physics

has to be simple so I can understand it......

As any Pratchett reader knows, a cat in a box has 3 states -

Alive
Dead
and Bloody Furious.

Especially when they crawl into the box (worse still, the kitchen cupboards) and can't get out again! :D

Terry Pratchett - funny bloke 'im. He's very short! We met him once (pic later) He said that 30% of his fans are witches - can't see why? :rolleyes:

I've met him a fair few times and once got him to autograph one of my guitars.

Speaking of Pratchett and Heisenberg, what about the Ambiguous Puzuma - an animal that can run at 9/10ths the speed of light?

Unfortunately, due to an peculiar manifestation of Heisenburg's Uncertainty Principle, it can't know where it's going and who it is at the same time, so as soon as it reaches max. speed, it has a terrible identity crisis, and by the time it's figured that out it's usually 100 ft into the next mountain.

The very few Discworld biologists who've managed to observe the Ambiguous Puzuma at rest report that it's a sort of big cat with an interesting black and white checkerboard patterned coat. However, the majority of Biologists hold that a Puzuma in it's natural state is very wide, one molecule thick, bright red and extremely dead.

:D

I love cats. None of mine gave any bother (apart from the black one, who ate £2000 of racing pidgeons owned by a local paramilitary). My last cat didn't mind me going away to work for a few months at a time, it just appeared at my window about half an hour after I came home again.

Dogs are useless dependants. Feed me, walk me, clean me. Useless.

I would have to disagree dude! I respect your love of cats but "useless dependants"! Wait till some thieving basterds invade your house while you are away and see how useless dogs are compared to cats! They didnt get the title "Mans best friend" for nothing! Respect! :)
