I’m home sick today. Bummer! I thought I wouldn’t cope today especially with a French tutorial, which is the worst thing to miss but my throat is sore – I don’t want to speak at all let alone try to speak a different language that needs a throat pronunciation.
I’ve been thinking of a few random questions, unfortunately I don’t think I’m going to remember them all… we’ll see.
Why when I click on the number, Blog Mad says that I clicked the wrong number when I’m always so careful to click the correct one?
Why when you are in a conga line the first person is only walking but the last person has to run to keep up, then when you are in heavy traffic the first car crawls and the last car doesn’t move at all?
Why do the clouds look like they are sitting on some kind of invisible shelf?
Actually I sort of know the answer to this one. Hubby told me when I asked a while ago. Archimedes’ principle – simply put (possibly too simply and maybe a little incorrect) if something has volume it displaces the surrounding fluid (in the case of clouds, air) and that fluid has to go somewhere. If the object is less dense than the surrounding fluid the displaced fluid will go underneath it and the thing will float, you will have seen this happen with a helium balloon. The object will stop going upwards when it reaches an area of the same density. Evaporated water goes up, it clumps together as clouds and sits on a shelf of similarly dense air. When it gets too dense it rains.
I can’t remember the question I thought of yesterday – it was really good =(
I’m going to go and lie down now.
Oh, I hope you are feeling better soon :)…Yeah, those languages with the throat pronounciations are hard. Our son always makes fun of my native language (in a good way though)- lol. We speak with a lot of throat pronunciations.
I am kind of sad that your rental was already up…
