DOW CORNING 3179 dilatant compound is a coral-colored silicone polymer that exhibits high elasticity, high bounce, and a unique combination of rheological properties. It offers ease of movement under low mechanical force and yet exhibits excellent resistance to slump or flow when at rest. It is virtually nontoxic and nonirritating to skin or eyes.
My coworker just purchased five pounds of the above substance, better known by its brand name Silly Putty, and broadcast a come-n'-get-it email to the company. Now the office is rife with plastic-y little pops and the normally frenetic background clacking of keyboards has mellowed as people struggle to type with one hand, a struggle from which yours truly is not exempt.
Another coworker tells me he's just purchased Lincoln Logs and Tinker Toys for his little girl.
Adulthood is nice. I've got these killer pecs. I get to stay out late on weeknights and drink 24oz Natural Light tallboys. But Silly Putty and Lincoln Logs... damn.
