Just the facts, mom

Results: the Gummi Bear grew, dude! Almost doubled in size! Tex and Noodle were so impressed, but me, I knew that was gonna happen the whole time. Totally.

Our next experiment was to rest a couple of pennies on a vinegar-soaked paper towel and record our results, which this morning consists of: "green splotches".

Great trip to the library yesterday. Found a biography of Charles Atlas for kids that was handy seeing as Tex is fascinated with body building and being able to SEE muscles under the skin. Oh, and speaking of under one's skin, we received our 18" plastic human skeleton and put it together yesterday. His jaw is hinged. Much puppetry ensued. I wonder how hard it's going to be to make costumes for our plastic skeleton guy...

And speaking of costumes (funny how I can just chase my thoughts around like that), Tex is currently working on props for their live-action Transformers film. Optimus Prime is going to be carrying a wicked foam-board axe.
