Silly putty became the lifeblood of Team Death in its early days. The amazing properties of this material are unmatched in both controlled environments and the wilds of nature.
And breaks with a snap when subjected to violence.
March 2, 2001 marked the 51st anniversary of Silly Putty.
Silly Putty was recently added to the Toy Hall of Fame!!!

How Silly Putty Came About
Warning on the Package

Grades of Silly Putty
Glitter: Like a party in your hand!
Glow in the Dark: A similar glow to that of glow in the dark silly putty may only be achieved by severely irradiating a large piece of canned luncheon meat... or perhaps a human hand.
Hyper-colour: Makes you feel like a real man
Metallic: Terribly mysterious and exhibits magical properties rivaling a magic hubcap.
Silly Putty Shattered
During post-Systems & Control Theory Midterm trauma, Ben was actually able to "shatter" Silly Putty. Seen as both an amazing accomplishment and a sign, he was promoted to Senior Ensign and handed a beer.
The Day Silly Putty Met Roni's Favourite Grey Sweater...
The greatest tragedy surrounding the miraculous material was the "Great Sweater Incident". Incidently, Silly Putty pressed into sweaters is not easily removed. Roni's sweater is now missing somewhere between Super-Incineration-World and the Bat-Cave. It is believed that the garment is still soiled with green putty.

Team Death Discusses Silly Putty
Admiral: silly putty hmm .. an engineering marvel but it wrecked my fuckin' sweater
Captain: Someday, I will be like silly putty: malleable, yet brittle when forced. Textured, but with settling properties given some time.
Ensign: We all could learn a lot from silly putty, really...
Lieutenant-Commander: Silly putty was there all the way... along with silly people
Captain: I find the putty helps me study... I can concentrate my aggressions on the putty and keep the mind focused on the tasks at hand... (and can be used as non-lethal weapon at times)
Ensign: it is singlehandedly responsible for my failing this semester.
