I don't imagine that there's a prize being offered for discovering the Higgs particle, but prizes exist. Lindbergh flew the Atlantic for prize money. I recall seeing a TV special several years ago about a prize for a human-powered aircraft. There must be loads of these out there. Know of a listing?

I can do this thing in a swimming pool where I squirt water out of my bare hands like I had a squirt gun in there. It's a hard little stream and I'm real good at it. It might be my most unique skill. There's got to be a prize for stuff like that.

Oh my God!!! That's not unique. At least one other person, namely me, has exactly that same skill. Everyone I know thinks I am some kind of mutant or something. Good to know there's someone else out there like me.
