        • Why does the water in the toilet always gently slosh back and forth when it's really windy outside?

              Because your waste line is not air tight and the toilet bowl is a p-trap away from the waste line.
              PLesa excuse the tpyos.

              • It's really a shame to be a shell of your former self when your former self sucked really bad to begin with.

                  I actually read this a few months back on Mental Floss. By the way, if anyone's looking for a good Twitter feed with odd and interesting tidbits, check out Mental Floss.

                  In many homes (at least in the U.S.), part of the plumbing system is a pipe that runs up and out to the roof. This outlet, called a “vent stack,” allows sewage gases to vent outside instead of through the toilet, sink or tub—which would make the house reek. The stack also allows air to move through the pipes, which makes wastewater drain smoothly and keeps obnoxious gurgling to a minimum.

                  When the wind blows over the vent stack outlet on the roof, the air pressure in the pipe is lowered. This is Bernoulli’s principle (“as the speed of a moving fluid increases, the pressure within the fluid decreases”), the same thing that gives airplanes their lift, in action in your bathroom. The lowered pressure in the pipes creates a slight suction effect throughout the plumbing system, pulling on water in the toilet below. As the wind kicks up and dies down, the suction gets stronger and weaker, and the water in the bowl sloshes around accordingly.

                    • I had the fine fortune of running into our very own Clark Addison at the grocery store tonight and found out that, like me, he too was in charge of the family meal today.

                      His cart contained egg nog, milk, some kind of dessert I'm sure, and the ingredients to prepare sushi from scratch. In my hands I held a bag of Hot Pocket Snackers, a box of Hot Pocket Sliders, frozen french fries and two frozen chimichangas.



                      (I hadn't had Hot Pockets in years, saw them in the freezer and decided to take the easy route.)

                          • buffalo wild wings opening up in lehi, near the Costco. It opens on Monday. Apparently the store is giving away free wings for a year for the first 100 people that show up on Monday.

                            There are around 20 people that started camping out yesterday.
                            Fitter. Happier. More Productive.

                                That is awesome. I'm gonna remember that word. I'm so addicted to WWF I hardly have time for CUF anymore.
