water balloons
we went to a pool party today. i got to vent about how unfair work was. flank steak dinner was really good. but it was embarrassed by the peach and blackberry pie and the 911 chocolate emergency cookies the beautiful and talented alisa had made. anywho, i digress. marco was filling water balloons and dropping them into the pool. where they sank to the bottom. the other kids would dive and fetch them. fun was had by all. so uh why did the water balloons sink? usually water balloons have a bit of air in them. so they should float. marco was apparently using a secret technique that didn't put air in the water balloon. still though. the plastic latex stuff of which the balloons are made floats. so again, why did the water balloons sink? answer tomorrow.
