Techno-Babble needed

[Trebuchet]

One of my father's caregivers brought over a gift for my partents' cats -- a cat bed shaped like a pyramid. They love it.

My Mom, remembering the pyramid craze back in the 70's (?) wants some impressive (woo-woo) jargon to tell people what the cats are doing in the pyramid -- you know the stuff, vibrations, karma, cosmic alignment, and the like.

I'm sure I could come up with something from the web, something people actually take seriously, but somehow I suspect my fellow BABBers can come up with something better. Any suggestions?

As you know, the pyramid has 4 triangular sides exposed: one in every direction. The tilt of these faces toward the cosmos makes sure that all cosmic rays are captured onto the pyramid's faces. All this cosmic data gets stored inside the pyramid.

These data can be used in two ways. Getting hold of all information can make you an active learner, having hold of all information in the Universe.
Knowing that you are perfectly aware of your situation makes for a very peaceful sleep. Knowing your surroundings up to the edge of the Universe is good for your inner peace. Observe the cat for a good example.

Now, a small modification would be to turn the pyramid upside down.
The 4 sides are now aimed toward the surface of the earth, which acts as a huge mirror of cosmic data. Furthermore, the bottom plate now gets full and direct cosmic exposure, making for excellent receiving of real time data. The ground data gives you a good view on more internal topics. And finally, the increased headroom of the upside down pyramid allows your brain to be surrounded by more cosmic data.

Go to www.nibiruancouncil.com and read some of their stuff. You couldn't even make stuff up more bizarre and new-agey than that.

[Lurker]

You can tell her that research had demonstrated that pets of all kinds thrive under, or within open-frame pyramids. Dogs and cats are observed to respond to this unique, form-energy environment in harmonious ways.

We don't know why for sure... its an energy form and cannot be measured by the usually instruments...

As everyone knows, razor blades kept in a pyramid stay sharp indefinitely.

Cat claws, too. Fluffy no longer has to sharpen hers.

You could always play a little Pyramania by The Alan Parsons Project in the background.

I've heard about that. What is the origin of that myth?

Pyramid power was introduced to the western public by the 1971 book Psychic Discoveries Behind the Iron Curtain

Suspend a catnip mouse from the top vertix of the upright pyramid so that it hangs at rest in the very center. You can fit this centeredness into the usual pyramid nonsense (like spraying it with catnip spray every once in a while - while claiming the catnip in a pyramid never loses it's potentcy), plus the cat will have a lot of fun.

No one would believe that! They only come for can openers!

Simple. The blades you keep in the pyramid all the time will stay sharper than the blades you actually use. :wink:

I have friends who were at least semi-skeptical on the issue, and they tried it and they said it worked. Probably just that the razor can remain functional even after several shavings.

Just tell them you don't know what the pyramid does, but aliens must have built pyramids on the Earth for a reason.

Mythbusters:

Pyramid Power? Busted!

Episode title: Jet Pack

Schedule

The pyramid razor blade stayed no sharper.

The pyramid milk went sour. The pyramid flower wilted. The apple in the pyramid rotted at a slower rate. What? Oh, they suspect the microbial load of the two apple halves might have been different. Redo!

Nope. On second test, pyramid apple rotted just like open-air apple.

Totally busted.

[tmosher]

I'll ask the three girls what they think.

Melville? Meow!
Kitten? Meuw!
Greenwood? Meurr!

Sorry, that's all I could get out of them. I think they'd rather have a cat treat (snackies!) than answer questions.

Gotta love the Mythbusters, hope that episode doesnt take that long to show here on the Brazilian Discovery Channel.

The world could also use some fengshui debunking.

The world could also use some fengshui debunking.

I think the Penn and Teller show dealing with bovine scatology debunked that.
