Stupid lab tricks

My labmates are engaging in the fun and worthwhile activity of making projectiles out of syringe plungers using a can of compressed air.

It's so good to see children at play.

Oh yes. The worst thing we've ever done with liquid nitrogen was "let's see what we can freeze in it!" None of us is dumb enough to try the parlor trick where you hold some in your mouth and spit it out.

LOL. Rolling it in your hand isn't recommended either although I've done it. :P

Yes, I've frozen stuff with it myself - mostly flowers.
