Double Header

This was a draft from a couple years ago.....finally just wanted to share it tonight:

Two posts in one night--WHAT?????

I just stumbled across my planner from senior year of high school in which I wrote down little gems from teachers and classmates, and I thought I'd share gems from my physics teacher:

On scientists who had to fight for their lives from the church: "Think about it....if you know somethign is right and you can't say anything cause they'll kill you.......It pretty much sucks."


He starts to draw a diagram on the board, but gets distracted: "So this is your car, and here is the other car--wait, hang on. Here's your car mirror, and this is where you hang things like CD's or those little trees that smell good."

On seeing a stealth bomber: "I thought those planes were supposed to be invisible!!!"

On watching an egg drop from a building during an experiment: "Aw, HELL no!"

On G-Forces: "That's what building roller coasters is all about--knowing forces! Because you can't kill people and stuff."

Frequently repeated line when people misbehaved and he reminds us of a coming test: "...and THEN we'll see who's laughing."

"Again, whistling in class....not a good idea. We have a test coming and then we'll see who's......whistling."

The teacher asks how far away someone would have to stand on a balance to lift a truck. Students respond. The teacher buries his face in his hands and says, "Taylor, did you just say 'a billion'?"
