If it weren't for you meddling kids...

Do you believe in the spontaneous generation of Captain Crunch?  Not the little dude, just his cereal.  Before today, had someone suggested such a thing to me, I would have written him off as crazy.  However, I might now be inclined to believe.  Why the change in my mind?  Well, here it is, Mystery of the Day, and if anyone can come up with a better explanation for this phenomenon, let me know.

I went to the dining hall for beakfast this morning, as usual.  Everything seemed normal; I selected a clean white plate, two bicuits, a knife, and some jelly.  After sitting down and preparing the biscuits, I got a glass of milk.  I returned to my seat and ate my meal without any serious mishaps.  This is when it starts to get strange.  I left to get an orange, returned to my seat, and began to peel it.  About halfway through this process it appeared: a lone piece of Captain Crunch cereal.  Suddenly I noticed it there on my plate, halfway trying to hide under my knife.  I was sitting by myself and did not know anyone else in the dining hall then, so it couldn't have been placed by a friend.  And do you want to know the weirdest thing? They didn't even have Captain Crunch in the dining hall that morning.  WoOoOoO!!  I know, I know, it's crazy!  But such is my life ;-)

Anyhow, did you know that many traditional Chinese medicines contain high concentrations of mercury and arsenic?  So stick to the Advil.
