Recently, scientists discovered an amazing thing: Unpeeling Scotch Tape in a vacuum creates X-Rays. Before you start thinking this is just another crazy "One Dad's Life" thing, check out this article. It is true!
This got me to thinking, if the simple act of peeling tape away from the roll creates X-rays, what other seemingly ordinary things might the subject of a future amazing scientific discovery? Here are some of my predictions:
- Brushing your teeth and then drinking orange juice will be found to actually kill your taste buds.
- If you keep making that face, it WILL actually freeze that way.
- It will be discovered that we ARE all actually related to Kevin Bacon.
- Every time we launch a rocket, it punches a little temporary hole in the atmosphere and we lose some of our air!
- It will be discovered that thousands of monkeys typing CAN come up with a great novel, but with poor spelling and grammar.
- It will be discovered that hitting the snooze alarm actually makes you MORE rested, not less. (YESSSSS!!!!)
- Bigfoot DOES exist, but he is a single guy in a gorilla-like suit playing an elaborate trick on all the Bigfoot "researchers."
- That a watched pot actually boils a little bit quicker, due to a newly discovered subatomic particle your eyes emit.
- That dreams are actually glimpses into a parallel universe - and that place is messed up!
- It will also be discovered that people are more drawn to "top ten" lists than they are to small woodland creatures.
Have a great weekend!
So, I wonder if all the rockets being launched are contributing to global warming?

If these predictions come true, I will vouch for your scientific genious.
