Count on Fun!
From The Simpsons:
Prof. Frink, substitute teacher for the preschoolers, demonstrates a popcorn lawnmower toy.[via Guide to Mathematics and Mathematicians of The Simpsons, part of Simpsonsmath.com]
Frink: So the compression and expansion of the longitudinal waves cause the erratic oscillation – you can see it there – of the neighboring particles.
[child raises hand]
Frink: Yes? What is it. What. What is it?
Child: Can I play with it?
Frink: No, you can’t play with it. You won’t enjoy it on as many levels as I do. [Happy noises] The colors, children! [More noises]
