What is the most fun you've ever had with chemistry?
Please lets not have so much of the drug comments. I'd like to hear about a happy experiment, or a experience you've had pertaining to chemistry.
By the way, you guys are geeks.

Watching as my company's factory made the first 70 ton batch of my first adhesive product. (It was a new polymer latex.) It's still selling well.
