Actual email sent from our son's Physics teacher:

Mr. Follis,
 
Yesterday Fred came to class and told me "I was going to do my homework... but then I made pancakes". I understand the importance of a delicious and nutritious breakfast, but next time I ask that he please share!... and do the homework.

Excellent way to get his point across.

When you think about it, Marianne, making pancakes could have a application in the field of physics...flipping them up in the air to achieve a balanced result of energy, heat and objects in motion, etc, etc.

Didn't Issac Newton develop his Second Law of Thermodynamics while waiting for Belgian waffles at an IHOP in England?

P.S. I could be wrong on that.

The basis of Richard Feynman's Nobel Prize winning work was his observance of the wobble of a plate as it spun in the air, so maybe Fred Jr. is on to something...!
