One of the presents I got was "a scientific toy" using the conservation of angular momentum to retain its orientation in space. A gyroscope?

Speaking of which, sort of, I've been getting photos and video of baby birds in a nest on my windowsill. There's some posted in the Photography thread. But today, I think I captured video of one them flying from the nest for the first time. I'm 95% sure there were 4 of them when I started shooting today, and now there's three. Downloading the footage now, we'll see. Either it was abducted by aliens, or it flew for the first time. Either way, I got it on camera, I think. EDIT: Doh! Between the time I took some photos, and then grabbed the tripod to get video of the nest, Chick #1 flew the coop! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geonovast Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 I was out mowing yesterday, had my headphones in. A song was just starting as I came back into the house. I shut the door, and popped my headphones out while I removed my shoes. I did not stop hearing the song. It was pretty much seamless, it was like I didn't even take my headphones out. The song just kept going. It just so happens that my daughter was blasting the very same song from her radio in her room. I popped one of the earbuds back in, and they were less than a second out of sync. I don't think we could have done that if we'd tried.

I think they were spying on me.... When one of the chambers has finished curing tires, we bang on a steel support post to summon a crew to break down the load. It sounds like a gong. One time after that summons, the radio immediately started playing “Hell’s Bells” and half the shop burst out laughing Speaking of which, I hear that gong now.

Break time is over One time my radio freaked out and played two songs at the same time plus static. Pretty weird, but it actually sounded fairly interesting as well. It started with one song and then it was almost as if it transformed into another song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XB-70A Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 Exciting day and ending on a not-so-light dinner, but it's not every day that you can eat with a big Falcon in front of you. (Couple on the left seemed to agree) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pthigrivi Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 (edited) I forgot to put on deodorant this morning so I bought some when I grabbed lunch. Unfortunately they didn't have the kind I usually buy so now I have to go into a client meeting smelling like some dude from Jersey Shore.

I used to keep an emergency travel stick in my glove box, because I forgot that summer was a thing. I'll let you guess what happened.

VictoryNeverFail Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 I saw a chicken on a farm on a field trip and suddenly a plastic bag from kfc blew into his face. The bag probably came from the house next to the farm or from the road with a decent amount of liter, either way I was dying of laughter.
