I spent 4 hours at work going backwards from page 79 to page 32 of this thread. My coworkers think I am weird because I was giggling and blowing snot out my nose in my cubicle. This included a 90 minute teleconferance on nothing funny.
Tommorrow I will start at page one and see how far I get.

Brazil Nut Effect
The Brazil nut effect is the name given to a phenomenon in which the largest particles end up on the surface when a granular material containing a mixture of objects of different sizes is shaken.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brazil_nut_effect
Be aware that use the My Mom has sex with Donkey's Toe effect is frowned upon or might mean something else
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brazil_nut
And, though it has fallen into disuse due to the negative racial connotaion, a common slang term for the nuts in some regions of the United States was "My Mom has sex with Donkey's toes".
I love my Black Brothers and Sisters, but I thought this was funny. OK now for some cracker cracks

The Cheerio Effect
The Cheerio Effect
In fluid mechanics, the cheerio effect is the tendency for small wettable floating objects to attract one another. An example of the cheerio effect is the phenomenon whereby breakfast cereal tends to clump together or cling to the sides of a bowl of milk. It is named for the breakfast cereal Cheerios and is due to surface tension and buoyancy. The same effect governs the behavior of bubbles on the surface of fizzy drinks.

Re: The Cheerio Effect
So why is it that when there are only about 15 cheerios left, they scatter when you put the spoon in the bowl?RangerBob275 wrote:The Cheerio Effect
