Sorry, I thought it was general internet knowledge - it's on every one of those "things you didn't know, and probably didn't care about" emails/websites/etc. That means it's most likely not true. ;)

Apparently, if you put a raisin in a champagne flute (with champagne in it, of course), the raisin will float to the top, then sink to the bottom, then repeat. I assume it stops when the champagne goes flat. My bet is that the bubbles stick to the raisin, causing it to float. When it reaches the surface, the bubbles escape, and the raisin sinks. I've never tested it, though.

that makes sense all the lil air bubbles getting trapped in the wrinkles of the raisin making them raise and then fall once the bubbles are loose....

Exactly.

So, what does the onion do? And what does this drink taste like? I turned nineteen (legal drinking age in Ontario) in April, so I'm eager to try things out. In fact, I think I'm going to drink the last of my Smirnoff Ices right now. Cheers!

Time to bump this topic with a great new joke I just found! :)

----------------------

American scientists invent a time machine, and after it gets tested and approved, George Bush uses it to go to the year 2500, to see what will happen to America by then.

He arrives in a futuristic-looking Washington DC, with flying cars and strange people all over the place. Slightly confused, he walks into an old-fashioned bar and asks the bartender for a whiskey. Seeing how friendly the bartender is, he reveals his identity to him and asks him about American history over the past 500 years.

"Well", says the bartender, "The worst time was in the late 21st century, when World War 3 broke out. But we won, and ever since then America rules the world."

"What about terrorism?" asks Bush

"Terror...what? Must be something very old, I never heard of it!"

"And what happened to Israel and Palestine?"

"That war ended long ago. They all live in peace now, thanks to America."

"Did you explore space?"

"You bet! We have American colonies on Mars and the Moon, and we Americans were the first to step on every major rocky planet in the Solar System!"

"Wow, this future is better than I could have ever dreamed! Thanks for telling me about it! How much for the drink?"

"Oh, we don't use money any more, comrade."

;D ;D ;D

Not a joke, but it seemed to go here. Look at the face Bush is making! Tis priceless.

I guess you can add baby to the list of things that have threatened Bush's physical well being...among such things as pretzels and a segway...

Okay, so this is the checklist of threats to the Leader of the Free World?

Babies, Pretzels, and Segways
