It is pretty cool, but I think a better idea would be to keep them in the jar for a few more days; until they aren't jumping at all. :lol:

That wasn't what I didn't understand. I saw the 42 seconds of WTF. I guess I have never heard that expression before.

Google up Zig Zigler, he used the analogy well in his book and presentation "See You At The Top." Interesting..

Well, I believe that I must tell the truth
And say things as they really are
But if I told the truth and nothing but the truth
Could I ever be a star?
