Food For Thought...

Consider this ye thinkers hither, thither and yon:

For a given particle, chunk, clump or kib (kib a part of kibble?)
what to your way of thinking is the physical relationship between the
mass of a food particle and its surface area? Is it not inversely
proportional? And if so or not, so what? Yeah, so what? You've got no
or yea intuition relating to surfaces? You should.

Particle-lization, yea even micro-miniaturization is of the most
extreme importance in the physical biochemistry that governs the
translation of food chunks into the mighty millions of mini bits, and I
mean really tiny mini-mini bits that many of us recognize at compounds,
molecules, ions and maybe even subatomic sized matter that we find
difficult to visualize, even more so than Word Peace. Da, the cold
blueeyes of Vladimir Putin's idea of Georgian peace.

Let me close this mystery now for your learned reflection on just what
your view would be were you crouching inside the gut of a 10,000 ton
giant ferretus maximus. Sometimes a soul shaking experience comes from
viewing the so called obvious from an altogether different perspective,
the perspective of being inside looking out.

As BIG remarked he feared the Mehr kommt spaeter Damen und Herren, and
you know, here it is, the second installment, just a hint of what's to
come from the belly of the mustelid with the dark mask. Beware! Beware
the mighty sphincter and the massed billions of potentially pathogenic
Escherichia coli. that could suddenly propel you projectively outa
there with an even greater velocity than the penstock water exiting
the flooded Glenn Canyon dam.

Time flies like an arrow; fruit flies like a banana. Or, do fruit flys
like a banana...hmmmm; gotta think about that one..
