We finished dissecting the worms today! It was fun, but it didn't last long enough. Oddly enough, I find myself looking forward to when we may dissect fetal pigs next week.
My friend brought a whole box of latex gloves, and so of course, all the slackers who didn't bring their own just mooched off us. But then when we finished, what were we gonna do with all the used gloves? Well, we couldn't just throw them out, so my friend had the idea of making water balloons out of them. He filled one up from a faucet, took it outside, and lobbed it. As he threw it, however, it streched out to like three feet long because of centrifugal force acting on the water inside. Then it hit the ground, and looked like an elongated, gargantuan slug hitting the pavement(if you can imagine that) for a few seconds before it burst and made a huge puddle. It was a RIOT!
So, of course, we had to try it again. However, this time, our choice of gloves was not so great. As my friend was carrying it to the door to throw it outside, I noticed a telltale leak spurting out of the index finger, and another one coming from the glove's wrist. I semi-yelled "Mario! SINK!!" and grabbed the glove. Seriously, i was holding it in the sink when it burst. If I had been a second later, it would have burst all over the floor.
Namaste
