For years, the scientific brain
Has sought a way to make it rain,
And, recently, this was in vain
Attempted from an aeroplane.
While tossing out dry ice into
The unprecipitated blue,
It was assumed there would ensue
A shower that was overdue.
How dull the men of science are!
They could have merely washed a car.

If you wrote it in correct American English, it wouldn't scan or rhyme, sorry. 🙂

Monday yet and are rotten eggs both icky and sticky? "If you have a carton of eggs past the expiration date, it's a gamble on whether the eggs are actually rotten. How can you tell without cracking one open and ruining a cake batter? Put them to the test. Fill a bowl with cold water and place an egg in the water. If it sinks to the bottom, the egg is still good. If it floats, it's a bad egg and needs to be tossed. If it it sinks to the bottom but stands on end, it needs to be used soon." ~Illustratus. Just got to be an incisive metaphor hiding around somewhere in that kitchen tip that's totally applicable to the RHP General Forum.
