Buttered Cat Array:

When a cat is dropped, it always lands on its feet. And when toast is dropped, it always lands with the buttered side facing down. I propose to strap buttered toast to the back of a cat; the two will hover, spinning inches above the ground. With a giant buttered cat array, a high-speed monorail could easily link New York with Chicago.

My concern would be that the friction from the monorail would set the butter to melting, and thus bring the whole thing to a crashing halt. A true catastrophe.

some people will do anything to watch the fur fly.
