When a cat is dropped, it ALWAYS lands on its feet
and when a toast is dropped, it ALWAYS lands
with the buttered side facing down.

Therefore, I propose to strap buttered toast to the back of a cat.
When dropped, the two will hover,
spinning inches above the ground, probably into eternity.
A buttered-cat array could replace pneumatic tires on cars and trucks,
and giant buttered-cat arrays could easily allow
a high-speed monorail linking New York with Chicago.
