twincityhacker: hands in an overcoat's pockets (science)

Yesterday, we made rocket fuel in science class.  Mr. N and Mrs. T were have a demenstration day with liquid nitrogen, and froze various things.  An egg in a frying pan, a bannana that was used as a hammer and ballons. 

To make the LOX (I've been looking for an excuse to use this ever since I saw it) Mr. N filled a ballon with pure oxygen and stuck it in a Dasmer flask of liquid nitrogen.  Since oxygen has a liquifying point a little higher than nitrogen, it, well, liquifed.

It turned out to be this color.  But it only stayed liquid for a little while before it vaproized. 

And today Mrs. T made underwater fire using bleach, water, calcium carbide, and hydrogen chloride (I think.  The acid she put in with the bleach made chlorine gas)

Of course, nothing rates up there with the methane soap bubbles that I got to light on fire.

*sniffs* I'm all verkleped because the Angel finale. And then I read a fanfiction. Now I'm more verklemped.

WHY? WHY? WHY? *smacks head*

And on a completly diffrent note: We had a speaker for Notre Dame today. He was talking about some of the activites and clubs they have. Fencing, making boats, Mystery science theater club... And with my selctive hearing, there was a huge emphisis on the mst3k club. So for my question I asked him if he was a miste or if he was just mentioning a obscure club. He was just metioning a obscure club. So Mr. L asked him if mystery science theater 3000 was a mystery dinner.

This is only upsetting because we were going to do a presentation on a hobby for that class, and I had started work on it, and he switched it to a presentation on the poetry of song lyrics. The presntation went okay, but I still really wanted to do the hobby thing. My hobby was internet fandom, and was going to have mst3k in it.

And slash, so it was probably for the best.
