does this make sense?

pauliMr McMuffin has been so prolific today that this blog is in danger of becoming 'At home with Mr McMuffin with occasional guest appearances by Mrs McMuffin'. I feel as if I need to say something, but I can't be bothered to think about the interview and the news that awaits me tomorrow.

I have been reading Bill Bryson's A Short History of Nearly Everything. Last night it was too hot for me to sleep so I turned my attention to one of the most arresting of quantum improbabilities arising from Wolfgang Pauli's Exclusion Principle (1925). I think I may have cracked it, I wonder if the 'pairs' of subatomic particles aren't in fact a pair but the same particle, a 'mirror image' able to exist at the same time, but not in the same location.

After congratulating myself on my genius, I was going to make myself a little tinfoil hat, but instead got a damp towel off the washing line and draped it over me. I felt cool for the first time all day with the wet towel over me as a blanket and fell asleep. It was bone dry by the time I woke up. Mr McMuffin actually managed to sleep with part of the duvet over him which I think must be indicative of his extra terrestrial origin. That's just not normal.

That's the worse thing about quantum stuff, everyone has a theory.
