Uncle Roger's Notebooks of Daily Life
My life is, to me, ripe with frequent challenges, occasional successes, spontaneous laughter, adequate tears, and enough *life* to last me a lifetime. To you, however, it surely seems most pedestrian. And therefore, I recycle the name I used previously and call this my Notebooks of Daily Life. Daily, because it's everyday in nature, ordinary. These conglomeration of events that are my life are of interest to me because I live it, perhaps mildly so to those who are touched by it, and could only be of perverse, morbid curiosity to anyone else. Yet, I offer them here nonetheless. Make of them what you will, and perhaps you can learn from my mistakes.

If you want to empty a small-mouthed bottle of water (or other non-carbonated liquid) quickly, turn it upside down and move it in a circular motion to set up a whirlpool in the liquid going out. This allows the air to flow inward, up the middle at the same time as the water spirals down the outside.
For those interested, this is what happens with tornadoes. A layer of heavier, cold air sits atop a layer of lighter, warmer air and manages to punch a hole towards the ground. The cold air pours down as the warm air moves up. Check out the Wikipedia for a more detailed (and more accurate) explanation.
