Aimee, will you go to Mrs Fields and buy me a cookie?

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
However, I just found them on eBay, once again confirming that ANYTHING is available via eBay.
Girl Scout cookies on eBay?! I cannot begin to wrap my head around that concept.
The cute neighborhood girls who took my order for cookies last month haven't delivered them yet. I hope they do so this weekend, otherwise I'm going to have to figure out which grocery stores will have Girl Scouts in front of them.
They have a very tiny mass.
Not really. They have varying energy, which can be converted into mass if the photon interacts with a particle and changes it to a different, more massive particle. But every accepted theory I've read sets the mass of photons at 0, and experimental evidence has verified that even if accepted theories are wrong they would have to have an immeasurably small mass (by current standards, anyway).
There was some interesting hubub some years back about a possible mass measurement for neutrinos, but I haven't heard anything on that subject in quite some time.

We haven't found a girl scout to order off of this year, since I'm not working.
I need to find a sales table at the grocery or something. Thanks to Plei, I'm DYING for a thin mint.
There is a piece on Punkabilly Pies on the radio right now. I wonder if it still exists. Or if it is fiction.
It's the one just before all the glass behind the bar explodes and people go flying, right?
Sometimes.
My friend used it for getting the attention of belligerent drunks who seemed to gravitate towards her front lawn at 3am for some reason. She said it sent them packing really quickly.
Naturally, we've moved way past that in the time it took me to type it.
Not really. Got any comment on my nuclear explosion question?
ita, I think Matt's diversity of knowledge is getting suspicious. You don't want to upset it.

Bwah! Thank you, I think. I was a physics geek back in high school. Mind you, I lack the math to really follow the equations on esoteric stuff, but the interest has kept me reading Discover and Scientific American over the intervening years. I'm at that stage where I can translate the layman-y stuff to people without science backgrounds, but I'd be totally lost once anything past pre-calculus is needed.
Plei, could you clutch me, too? It's been a bitch of a day, and you have a very nice bosom.
