Have you heard about the forthcoming reboot for streaming video that adapts the classic "Lone Ranger" series to modern technology? It'll be called "Drone Ranger." Instead of Rossini's "William Tell" Overture, the theme music will be Rimsky-Korsakov's "Flight of the Bumblebee."

I once kicked myself out of high school chemistry lab for making a solution of (part of) my pants in nitric acid while I was still wearing them (not for long :eek:). A teacher had to drive me home so I could get a fresh pair of pants.

In the lab, the actions of some students do seem to precipitate a suspension.
