Quarky literature post-mortem

April 19, 2009 by dberenstein

Well, the contributions on quarky literature have stopped, so we can open the hood of the post and check if anything interesting is available. After rummaging I’ll have to declare  Augustine the winner, for his wonderful piece on the mind workings of  some, mostly male, physicists.

Up and down Nature’s curves
the physicist’s glance wanders,
taking in her strange charms,
admiring her bottom
and what her top hides.

So give Augustine a big clap! In the meantime I’ll try to see if I can work a cartoon drawing with that.

    This is an outrage. My masterpiece was not fully appreciated:-)

    But as a bigger person that I am, I congratulate the winner.

    How in heck could an electron be a string?

    They are just vibrating the RIGHT way.

    Is that up to down?

    And from top to bottom.

    Do any of them do it the WRONG way?

    Those that charm the strange way.
