Using leftover dry ice to keep my cold brew coffee... cold.

So, I'm just rolling with this monstrosity in the back seat. #MadScience #YourFriendlyNeighborhoodMadScientist #CanIt

What does Your Friendly Neighborhood Mad Scientist do when, as he is cleaning up after his last scheduled show, another group of camp counselors and kids walk into the room and ask, "Where should they sit for the second show?"

Well, he calls Mad Science HQ and finds out if he can squeeze in one more performance before bringing the kit back.

Spoiler alert: He did the second show. (His third overall today). Happy Friday!

I was definitely in the paint for more than three seconds. Fortunately, there were no NBA refs present for my Fire and Ice show at the Upper Perkiomen Valley YMCA this afternoon. #MadScience #YourFriendlyNeighborhoodMadScientist #BasketballFoul

Fire & Ice at Pine Creek Park in Chester Springs, PA, today. And that's right, they closed the pavilion for Your Friendly Neighborhood Mad Scientist! (It wasn't really private; anyone could stop in and view the show if they knew about it or happened to be in the park).

Here's Your Friendly Neighborhood Mad Scientist exchanging side eye with Eggbert at the start of today's presentations.

I returned Bobby Balance, and the rest of the Mad Science "Marvels of Motion" kit, to HQ yesterday. But before he left, Bobby took some time to scorn my backyard, my back porch deck, and even a garden gnome.

Bobby Balance, a key character in the Mad Science "Marvels of Motion" special event, is an annoying backseat driver. #MadScience #YourFriendlyNeighborhoodMadScientist

Back-to-back Wacky Science shenanigans with Your Friendly Neighborhood Mad Scientist this morning. New switch and other adjustments had the Van de Graaff generator functioning well. And the kids loved my new demo: levitating styrofoam peanuts out of a plastic cup!

Your Friendly Neighborhood Mad Scientist had a decent sized crowd for the second of two back-to-back Wacky Science presentations this morning. Yes, this photo is blurry, but that is due to the children's palpable excitement for SCIENCE!

My car is loaded up for Wacky Science events in March. That means I once again have a bag of styrofoam heads in my trunk. #MadScience #YourFriendlyNeighborhoodMadScientist #aheadofthegame
