You may have thought this was going to be about people who are "... the center of the universe... or who believe they are the only one, unique, extraordinary" (urbandictionary) but it's NOT. This thread is literally (and strictly) about the cats' whiskers only ~ by which I am referring to the whiskers that cats have. Who would like to contribute first?

Originally posted by Great Big SteesCan you confirm that what happened to the cat's whiskers is an integral part of this story?

Originally posted by FMFI built a cat's whiskers radio when I was a kid. It is a kind of semiconductor rectifier you can use to make a zero transistor radio.

If you think I am BS'ing you, here is a link and an image, scroll down to "Crystal detectors' and there is an image of one kind.

It was fascinating to me as an 8 yo kid when you touched the cat whisker to various parts of the galena crystal you could find louder places on it clearly audible difference in volume depending on just where you touched the galena with the little wire of the whisker.

Were the whiskers still attached to the cat when you did that?
Originally posted by josephwDid you read the link? Guess not. spouting off again without knowing what I am talking about. Do you even know what galena is? Iron Pyrite? Lead pyrite? Why don't you actually read the link before making an ass out of yourself.

See? You're takin' ur self too seriously. Of course I knew what you were talkin' about. I ain't that stupid!
Originally posted by sonhouseNo. To be honest, compared to you I was the dumbest kid on the block. In the classroom I was the one sitting in the back row picking his nose.
Ok, fair enough. Did you build a crystal set radio when you were a kid?
But I knew God loved me. And nobody even had to tell me that either.
