3/6: the amazing world indoors and all around

Hi Friends:

I hope your rainy Monday morning is going along well, with no power outages or water damage. Since we're stuck indoors, I thought I'd share some links to amazing aspects of common household objects. Warning: you may never look at a glass of water the same way again:

Impress your friends! Keep your kids busy instead of having them watch tv! And be amazed--always, be amazed with how cool the world is.

Have a great week,
