Oops, dropped it; where did that almond go? Dang, stuck between my seat and the center console!
I'll just gently grab it; ahhhhhhh - can't get it. It's slipping done. GONE!
Uh-oh! Where'd that dime go? Shoot; Aarrhhhh - can't reach it. GONE!
Oh shoot! Gotta snatch up that grape before it disappears down there - I'll just use two fingers and
get it - Crap, it's gone; maybe I can reach it...Owwwww!
BLAST that Black Hole!!

An excerpt re: the black hole part:
"STEP 2: Building your own ten-pound universe seed. The easiest way is to start with a mini-black hole. By "black hole" I'm not talking about the U.S. Budget or your home-renovation plan; I'm talking about an object with a gravitational field so powerful that even electromagnetic radiation and reruns of Mr. Ed cannot escape its pull. Of course, the black holes in our galaxy are HUGE. What you need to make is a small one, one that won't suck in the sun while you're working and ruin your light.
Take anything handy, say a golf ball, and put it inside some giant squeezing machine that hasn't been invented yet. You can build one in your garage with a press and every National Geographic ever printed as the weight. This is similar to squeezing blood out of a turnip only easier and considerably less gory. Then you compress the golf ball so it gets denser and denser until, according to the laws of general relativity, it changes state and collapses into a mini-black hole. By "mini" I mean smaller than your next tax refund."
Fun article!
I have now also finally accepted this to my "Everything" group, sorry for any delays...
