Schrödinger's zoo

The cat was not a great choice – 9 checks of the box…

Zebra’s tricky, too, requiring a bar code scanner

The zoo keeper didn't feel there was enough staff to keep the place clean. Wigner said he'd bring his friend along to help, but has he turned up?

(I say "friend" but really it's a bit of an on-off relationship.)

Penguins are almost binary... up = 1, down = 0

Any time you observe one of the animals, they collapse into another state of being.

The directory can tell you exactly where any given animal is, but not where it will be once you get there.

What if you see spots before you open the box? Does that mean you're a cheetah?

Cafeteria serves only boxed lunches, and you never know what you're going to get.

[BetaDust]

Don't open the box just yet!

Wait, and see what the cat dragged in...

Everything is relative. Cheetah, Tiger, Lion, Puma - all cats. Whether sunspots determine the different states, up to your interpretation of differences in mewing and mauling. Open the box.

Saw a Rhino gore another in the zoo. Now that I'm headed back, was it the one that gored the other or the other that gored the one. Either way, it is not making the meter run slower. Sometimes, I hate that randomness does not seem to have any impact in easing my financial restraints.

I want to visit Schrödinger's Zoo, but it's too far a drive as it is in another state.

I find Schrödinger highly derivative. Alright, second derivative. Should have used Leibniz notation.

[Swift]

Didn't Einstein say that God does not play zookeeper?

[Zentisan]

Is the Lion fed? Would it depend on whether you punch a ticket or try to sneak in unseen?

In the carton
The Schrodinger carton
The lion sleeps tonight


Or maybe not

Jeez - the criters are all afraid of loud noises, and I have cleanup next week...
