Good Morning, Meekie.
Happy Wednesday.
This is Cherry Popover Day, Exclamation Day and if this thread is any indication, It is also Let's be Crazy Day!!
Nice graphic, the letters are really upside down and backwards. I wish I could apply the same technique to the poem!
It is also Let's be Crazy Day!!
Crazy, man. Crazy.

Explanation Day? I don't understand THAT one!!!! Please explain it to me.
Could anyone doubt its origin was Stonehenge?!?
NnB, PAL is calling us owls!
Buckminsterfullerenes are a class of molecules which have an even number of carbon atoms and no other elements... The most stable is C60, which looks like a soccer ball with carbon atoms at the vertices. Way back in undergraduate, I did a project trying to make Fe@C60, but I didn't get anywhere.
CHERRY POPOVER:
Palce 1 T. of cherry pie filling in center of a flattened crescent dinner roll.Place another cresent roll over the top.Pinch edges together.Bake according to pkg. directions.
HAPPY CHERRY POPOVER DAY!!!!!!!!!
Oh, ........... never mind!
Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry, who, by the way, was Dukakis'
Lieutenant Governor in liberal Massachusetts issued this statement today:
"Bush made a statement, and I'm supposed to respond? Can't you see I'm too busy
playing with my windsurf? Sure, they'll say I take too much vacation for a serious
candidate, but get Edwards to deliver a sound bite for me? What's he done recently?"
I do declare!

You were trying to cage the iron atom?
Seems as though it would need to be done in solution. Buckyballs form naturally, and can be separated out of such commonplace items as candle soot. They are tremendously strong, and can be used almost like sand-blasting granules, but the chemical bonds can be disrupted by high energy photons such as ultra-violet light.
Recent efforts have been along the lines of stretching the ball into a tube, called a nanotube.
Popovers, Step by Step
1 cup sifted unbleached all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs (or 1/2 cup of egg, NOT egg substitute)
1 cup milk (whole, NOT low-fat)
Put the oven rack on a lower rack, so that the tops of the popovers will be nearer to the middle of the oven. Preheat the oven to 450°F. Use an oven thermometer to ensure that the oven is at the correct temperature.
Spoon the flour into a cup and level it off with a knife. Do not shake the cup to settle the flour. In a LARGE bowl, mix together the flour and salt. (I prefer a 2 quart lipped mixing cup.)
Measure the eggs to be sure you have 1/2 cup of egg. (This is important if you do not use large eggs.) In a SMALL bowl, whisk the eggs until the egg yolks and whites are completely mixed and change color to a uniformly pale shade of yellow. Whisk in the milk. Warm this liquid mixture in the microwave or on the stove until it is about room temperature
Whisk the liquid ingredients into the dry ingredients only until just mixed. There will be some small lumps left in the batter.
In the preheated 450°F oven, heat a six-cup popover pan on top of a baking sheet for 5 minutes, or until it is hot. Melt about 1 tablespoon of butter in a small bowl. Take the popover pan out of the oven (shut the oven door) and brush the popover pan cups with plenty of melted butter.
Fill the cups half full with the batter. (I pour the batter from the 2 quart measuring cup directly into the cups of the popover pan.) Replace the popover pan on the baking sheet in the oven.
Bake the popovers at 450°F for 20 minutes. Reduce the heat to 375°F and bake for another 20 minutes, or until the popovers are golden brown and crisp. IMPORTANT: DO NOT OPEN THE OVEN DOOR FOR THE FIRST 30 MINUTES OF BAKING.
Makes 6 popovers.
(I have no idea how you get the cherries in this.)
Since it is breakfast time anyway, maybe this can be altered from apples to cherries somehow...
Apple Popover Pancake

1/2 C flour
1/2 C milk

Why should she have to learn English? You are thinking old school. Or is it only Spanish that we all have to pander too? ; )
