Let Science Help You Reclaim Four Days of Your Life

tags: , , , ,

We all know that each day is filled with a variety of time-wasting activities that are necessary for us to be able to enjoy those brief, fleeting moments of freedom from such drudgery. So I thought I'd suggest something that you can do to reclaim four days of your life that would otherwise be devoted to the time-wasting activity of peeling hard-boiled eggs -- and this is all due to the wonders of SCIENCE [0:36].

Of course, this looks like so much fun that you'll probably invest those four reclaimed days by blowing eggs out of their shells instead of writing the Great American Novel or whetever else it is that you've been wishing to accomplish.

A few days ago we brought you the astonishingly ugly baby cockatiel. On the other, tastier side of the spectrum, we have this hardboiled ostrich egg and a massive deviled ostrich egg. Again, brought to you by our friends in New Mexico.
Bookgasm is one of my favourite book blogs, if not THE favourite.
There are lots of other books in the booklog queue, but this one is due back at the library today, so it gets bumped to the front of the list. Of course, it doesn't hurt that it's probably the most widely discussed of the books waiting to be logged...

Great theory, but I suspect I would waste more than four days by repeatedly scrambling around on the floor trying to find the egg I had just dropped.

Oh well, I'm not eligible to write the Great American Novel anyway.
