Just a few more classes to go before we granulate! We hab been prakticing our ninja mobes all year, but this was our offishul class. First you hab to get into the zone…
Dis my warrior pose.
He’s right behind me isn’t he? “Augie, stop poking me, I’m doing ninja mobes!”
Ninja mobes also require a few gymnastics mobes too.
Dis is my ninja concemtrashun face:
Ok, I’m ready! Bring it on!
Yaaasss….we got this!
I hope you all had a great weekend! Guess what? Last night we wanted some donuts, so mom suprised us wiff our granulashun presents early – our own motorcycles!! We got to dribe to Randy’s donuts by ourselbes, and get some yummy donuts – wiff NO raisins in it ob course. Traffic cams caught our pictures on the freeway while we were riding:
It was Saturday night, so the line was a little long, but it was well worff the wait.
Let’s get home quick and hab a donut party!!
It got a little warm in Hawaii wiff all that laba coming at us, so we went norff to Alaska to do a bit more science for school credit. Bean set up a base camp at the base ob a mountain, wiff our help, and we are doing experiments about the melting glaciers and doing some ice core drilling. We will analyze the samples of the ice core to see what we can learn from those.
Last night we watched the norffern lights, which make the sky all different colors, it’s really kind ob amazing! The bright dancing lights of the aurora are actually collisions between electrically charged particles from the sun that enter the earff’s atmosphere. The lights are seen above the magnetic poles ob the northern and southern hemispheres. Hab you seen it? You probably hab heard about it in that song from the Muppet mobie… “Aurora Borealis, shining down on Dallas, can you picture that?” I like Fozie Bear the best, he has a nice hat. Those guys trabeled alot too.
It was fun, but we are looking forward to going home and finishing school at MSOB. The only problem is, we seem to be a little low on trabel juice.
Fanks to Barbara Magin for the great Alaska bizness!
We got a specshul science license, so we went back to Hawaii today for an emergency science class, under directshun ob Milo. He said it’s not all the time bolcanos erupt, so you hab to go when they do, so much science to be learned. Cosmo and Augie weren’t nerbous, but I was, that laba can do fast and it’s really hot and sticky. Emergency crews continue to battle laba flow and hazardous sulfur dioxide fumes on the Island but they let us come and do some experiements to test the viscosity, flow rates and trying to understand how and where magma will next appear on Earth’s surface, to better tell people how to aboid this recurring natural hazard. Mapping these hidden pathways is an ongoing project at the Hawaiian Bolcano Obserbatory, where they offered us jobs as staff bolcanologists. As nice of an offer as that was, we thought it might be good to go home and finish school and maybe do somefing not so dangerous.
Fank you Barbara Magin for your dedicashun to science bizness!
I fink we better go…my butt is getting warm.
Our next stop is to the Outer Banks ob Norff Carolima – and it’s gorgeous here too! So many places in our country are just bootiful. We were inbited here to do bizness, but we got really distracted by one fing…wild ponies on the beach!! You guys, ponies ON. THE. BEACH. Ponies. It’s amazing!! They are wild and just run around splashing in the wabes. We spent lots ob time just watching them, then one ob them came ober and talked to us and offered to gib us rides. We spent the afternoon and ebening riding on the ponies and spending time on the beach enjoying the salt air and habbing snacks wiff the ponies. They were really great. This one pony, his name was Archie, he was kind ob the leader and he took us into a cabe far far away from where all the people are and showed us their house. I can’t really talk about it, it’s a secret. – dis Bean
Fank you to Sir Cormelius Loubet and his brothers Oliber and Sebastshun Loubet, and mom Joni Loubet-LaBonté! We will be ober to your house shortly to swim in your pool. It’s not like a baff is it??
Bean took this picture ob me and Cosmo….
Here we are in Bermont!! It’s so pretty here, the leabes are colorful ALL year long. Science can’t explain that, maybe it’s magic. I was looking for a pile ob leabes to jump in, but I found a fluffy pile ob maple flabored cotton candy to play in instead. It looked like a cloud, but it collasped when I jumped on it and I hit my butt on the ground. Don’t worry, it didn’t hurt, but the lesson is when you see somefing, you can’t judge the viscosity ob it by looks, like a cloud. Sometimes our eyes betray the science ob reality, but I digress. I fink I will talk to Fibbs and see if he wants to add a cotton candy annex to his Fibbs Frosty Freeeze and Donuts here in Bermont. I fink it will do well. It’s so yummy and melts in your mouff. It sticks to your butt too, if you jump in it. It’s better just to eat it.
Augie found a picnic wiff a whole table ob maple candies and Cosmo made a new friend, a black bear named Humbearto, at least that is what we thought he said because he was talking wiff his mouff full. By the time Cosmo got to the picnic Humbearto had eaten all the food. Cosmo didn’t say anyfing and just ate the crackers he had in his pockets ob his fancy pants.
Fank you so much Linda Williamson for the fun times in Bermont and the extra stuff to gib our mom and dad!!
We weren’t going to do any more trabel before we granulate, but then we decided we were because Bean had an idea about how to improbe the trabel juice so we had to test it out – for science. It did knock about 1.5365 seconds off the trabel time, but I fink we can do eben better. Our first stop today is Maine and we didn’t do the usual fings like go catch a bunch ob fish on a boat because we thought the fish probably wouldn’t like that, so we hung out in town instead, did a little window shopping, had lunch in a fancy historic hotel. 3 course lunch ob kale salad, corms and taters for the entree and booberry yogurt surprise for dessert!
Cosmo went looking for a mobie theater so we could all go see the new Star Wars mobie. The picture ob Cosmo is in the parking lot because we like the urban art colors on the wall – art can be all sorts of fings in all kinds ob places, eben parking lots.
Fank you so much to Maffew Deblin and Kelly Yellow for the Maine bizness. Are you going to join us for the mobie?? – dis Augie, you hab our digits?
Today we learned the basic techniques ob stapling, taping and paper clipping, basic office stuffs. Paper clips are great for Internashunal Bizness, it’s tricky though because they can crease the paper, so you hab to do it carefully or it will be a mess. Stapling is good for almost eberyfing and better than clipping, but it’s good to know the back up practices just in case you run out ob stables or somefing. Taping is good for some stuff if you don’t want to put holes in it wiff staples, but sometimes it’s not strong enuff. It’s all kind of complicated.
We only hab a few more classes before we granulate! We will get to our adbanced stapling classes wiff the red stapler dis week I fink. Exciting stuff is coming. – dis Bean
It’s berry serious bizness.
I clipped these bizness papers together so they don’t get lost.
Cosmo was more interested in snacks, but his pursuits seem to be more artistic anyway, so dats ok.
Staple Eberyfing!!
Our last stop for the dis part ob our midwest bisit is Nebraska! It’s pretty fun here, and the people are berry nice. Augie went to see a place where they made a Stonehenge out ob cars, but he couldn’t figure out how they got them up there.
It just so happened a big meeting ob world leaders were habing a conference about Nashunal Parks and climate change at the Chimney Rock Historical site, so King Bean gab up his plan ob sitting in the fields eating corms to attend and try to sabe the world.
And me, Cosmo…I went to the mobies in Lincoln NE! I really like mobies and might be a mobie rebiewer and other fings cultural. Maybe I hab tummy buttons to hold up my fancy pants for a reason.
‘Scuse me for a sec… Don’t forget the popcorm! “Yes, I want a large please. Where is the butter blower?” Ok, well I gotta go, the show is about to start. After it’s ober hab to hurry home to celebrate the last few hours ob Donut Day!
Fank you Jennifer Schreck! If you can get here in fibe minutes you can watch the mobie wiff me.
Our midwest adbenture takes us to Missouri next. “Show Me!” you say. Ok, I will. Dis me, Augie.
Cosmo went to Weldon Spring to bisit the Nuclear Waste Adbenture Trail. Dad called and said don’t stay long and risk getting any radiashun – it might make him an AmFibbian. I fink dat is a good idea, because you neber know wiff nuclear waste, it doesn’t seem like a great idea to make a tourist fing out ob it. He said it was fun to see it though.
Eben though the Arch is the obvious fing to see in Saint Louis, I wanted to see it. I went up to the top of it and my hands got so sweaty from being up so high. I fink I could see my house in CA from there. I could see into the stadium where Bean was playing baseball too. He was a designated hitter for the Cardinals, and some ob them were surprised because he did berry good and hit it ober the fence. After the game we went and had toasted rabioli and frozen custard to celebrate the win – it’s what you do in Missouri!
Fank you Ashley Frerking!!
