This was just fun. My daughter came home and said that are certain days of the year, according to her science teacher, and egg can stand on it’s end on just a regular flat surface. Supposedly it was one of those days a couple of days ago. So I decided to try it. Lo and behold, that’s egg-xactly1 what happened. The following picture is not trick photography. It also does not use any of the usual “tricks” to making an egg balance like this. It took me a few seconds to get it done as it was very picky about where it would balance, but then it just stood there. I couldn’t help but take a picture2.

Aw, I wish you had sold out on that BEFORE just now - I JUST bought a house in North Carolina. ):
I tried balancing an old, once… never really did anything. Bonus points: Omelet!

That is really cool… I’m going to share the info with my husband and see if he can find out what the “special days” are.
Now I must run off and find some popcorn because I saw some in your pic and it triggered massive cravings.

@fragileheart: The next time, yes. If I remember.
@Monique: It’s the day, which I hate that I don’t’ remember the right term for this, but it’s the day when there is exactly 12 hours of day and 12 hours of night.

@Carol: It’d take more than a special day to balance the country’s budget. It’d take about 9734 in a row.
