[QUOTE=Malacandra] If he’s on a hot date, I imagine it’s made out of [this](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cummingtonite). [/QUOTE] There’s a certain quiet brilliance to that one. Bravo! ---

Looking to see is Cummingtonite was a real mineral (it is), I run into a molecule called Arsole, amongst others. [Molecules with silly or unusual names site.](http://www.chm.bris.ac.uk/sillymolecules/sillymols.htm) ---

[QUOTE=cosmosdan] after four hours he should consult a physician. I had a friend who had an orange dick but that’s because his two favorite things were porn mags and Cheeto’s. [/QUOTE] Cosmodan, if you’re going to steal jokes, you should at least acknowledge the originator. For those of you not familiar with The Bob and Tom Show (a nationally syndicated radio program), one of their frequent guests is a musical duo named Paul and Storm, who have a short musical number with the following lyrics: “If you want to turn your daddy parts orange, Eat some cheetos and watch some porn.” OTOH, if you did come up with this independantly, congratulations, Liebnitz!!!
