Playing with my magnetic balls...

Time for a M.A.Y.A. Years Commercial:

I met my friend Jennifer at Java Shack a little while back and she introduced me to MagneatoSpheres. I know, I know, I should go back to eating paste, but this is worth checking out. They're basically a bunch of small magnetic spheres. They stick together, you pull them apart, you build things. MagneatoSpheres may not hold all the mysteries of the universe, but they do show some of its power. As a 6mm rare Earth
metal, MagneatoSpheres pack a potent punch, yet are easy to play with and
use. These magnets are made of neodymium, iron and boron and are some
of the most powerful magnetic forces on Earth.

Take two spheres and throw them at each other across a flat surface.
They spin like whirling dervishes. Get all existential and create a 3D
sphere out of all the little spheres. Create a magnet mosaic, even
make a necklace and make some lame joke about someone being attracted
to you. Most of all, MagneatoSpheres are meant for fun. Use them for
science classes to teach about how magnets work or offer them as party
gifts at the company party.

For more information, go to www.magneatospheres.com. They are also
sold on Amazon and other product web sites. And for you visual learners, check out that YouTube video below:
