Circa 1966, thinking 8th
grade but maybe later, reading a graffiti physics lesson etched into the old
paint of a GHS school bathroom stall:
Heat of the Meat X Mass of the Ass = Angle of the Dangle
Graphic detail from “Nymphs and Satyr,” 1873 Analysis by unknown GHS student, circa 1966 |
I’ve often wondered what GHS genius imagined this astonishing equation? Or if not a genius, then at least someone possessed of far more esoteric knowledge than I at the time … Someone we can never know with certainty, as surely more than one lesser mind would happily steal the credit!
I loved math and science at the time ... is that why I thought it was so funny and remembered it so well? Something else I'll never know - how many others appreciated it as much as I did?
In any case, here is a “thanks” to someone for an adolescent "GHS
Memory" that has stayed with me, now into my sixties.
(watch for the period between Rowe and OriGraphics)
