Hey.
How's your mind feeling? Is it blown? No? Well, if you want to keep it
that way you'd better stop reading right now. See that inconspicuous
little water bottle up there? Well it's not as mundane as it seems. In
fact, it's probably the most amazing thing I've ever seen in my entire
life! Why? Because, until I left it in the car one sunny day, it used
to look like this!
Yeah.
That's right. I left the bottle in a hot car for a mere six hours or so
and the damn thing Shrunky Dunk on me! My wife got two of these
bottles, so lets look at them side by side.
Crazy right?
As you can see, initially the bottle contained a bit more than 24 ounces of liquid...
...I just measured its volume today--less than 8 ounces!
Obviously, there's some magic at work here. Personally, I'm hoping it's the car that's enchanted rather than the bottle. You see, if my car turns out to be a Magic Shrinking Machine, then we could put all the pain and strife and suffering in the world in there and reduce it down over a couple sunny days. We could also use my magic car to shrink people's tumors and goiters and maybe even zap barrels of untreatable toxic waste down to a more manageable size.
I'm planning to test the
car's power tomorrow by leaving my recycling in there. (The can's
nearly full and the guys don't come again for 12 days.) Sadly, I have a
sneaking suspicion the magic's contained in the bottle because, well,
I've been in that car lots of times and I'm still fat.
