[bodytext] => It�s a damn shame what is happening to Jack Cole; His marriage situation is darker than a Black Hole. (Although Stephen Hawking said that Black Holes aren�t that black.) I always figured Henrietta was perfect for Jack. Theirs was the last relationship I expected to come under attack. I�ve known the Coles for longer than I care to remember. I�m actually the one who introduced him to her. They fell in love at the speed of light � I organized their first date and it went so well, they talked all night! They both dreamed of becoming great scientists. Henrietta loved mathematics and Jack wanted to be a physicist And there was definitely chemistry between them. Henrietta had a beautiful mind and body � what a gem! � And Jack had an IQ of one hundred and fifty-seven. I bet they could have started their own race of alpha children! The lovebirds passed all their examinations with ease And decided to get married on receiving their PhD�s. Jack told me their relationship had reached critical mass And they wanted to be wedded from that time onwards. (Actually, he said, �from that point in the expansion of the universe�.) At first, their home was filled with joy and laughter. Their jokes were so complex, I got them the morning after: Henrietta: �Do you think circles eat pi for dinner?� Jack (pointing at the wall where his diplomas hang): �I hope I get that Nobel Prize � I want to go out with a big bang!� Now those two geniuses won�t even greet each other. Jack says that Henrietta nags him as if there�s money in it - His tolerance has now reached its Chandrasekhar Limit. Henrietta says that Jack no longer seems to care � He�s not interested in the thoughts and emotions she wants to share. Irrespective of having three hundred IQ points between them, Those two soul mates can�t solve their simple marital problem! Oh, well. I guess these things are bound to happen: The theory of Quantum Mechanics clearly tells us That there is �no single definite outcome for an observation,� The result depends on the variables in the equation. What annoys me about the Jack- Henrietta situation Is that I know, as sure as Hydrogen is the lightest gas � Henrietta loves Jack more than she loves the entire universe And Jack should simply eat humble pi and apologize � He wants Henrietta more than he wants the Nobel Prize. Technical Terms: Black Hole � collapsed star with gravity so strong not even light can escape! pi � (pronounced �pie�) Mathematical constant used in calculations involving circles. Has a value of 3.14 big bang - pun on �Big Bang�, the scientific theory that suggests that our universe began when a primordial particle flared up dramatically. Chandrasekhar Limit � the maximum possible mass of a stable cold star (Beyond that, the star collapses into a Black Hole) Quantum Mechanics � The theory developed from Planck�s quantum principle and Heinsberg�s uncertainty principle Alexander Nderitu [comments] => 3 [counter] => 243 [topic] => 22 [informant] => NewShakespeare [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 4 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => LostLove )
