Can you stand an egg on it's end?

[AB Editor]

It is an Equinox tonight, and thus I will be testing a myth:

You can stand an egg on it's end during the equinox.

Anyone ever tried this before or got any pro-tips for me?

Thanks in advance.

@RATTER...how did I cheat? Does it matter what surface it's on?
I wasn't about to start stripping my table just to see if an egg would stand on it.. ;-))

I don't suppose Weekend Ed would know, unless he was at the same party as Friday Ed.....
