A Frozen Liquid
It rained last night. And now it is gray and soggy outside. The temperature is 76 degrees. I know this because I just downloaded software to provide up-to-date weather information. Which is kindof’ weird. It is 76 degrees out. I’m inside and could instantaneously “check the weather” I am looking at were it not for a sheet of glass between me and it. And so the end-around via Internet powered software.
What a strange world. When you think about it, glass itself is pretty strange. It goes from hot liquid into sheets of solid yet see-through substance. I can’t reach through it, but photons can penetrate it unmolested, and thus the clear vision. Weird.
Is glass a liquid that holds a frozen form at room temperature? I’m glad water doesn’t freeze at such high temperatures. I’d hate to have eat ice to quench my thirst. (Wink, wink.)
