I watched a kettle till it came to boil today. Why? Cause I’ve always considered that old saying as something of a challenge.
Took about an hour.
Not because the kettle was, by some dark magic, resisting the laws of physics in an effort to protect the intimate moment when it convinces water to boil. Nah, I just happened to get distracted and miss the first boil. So, I dumped the water and started the process again, but didn’t take into account that the kettle was now warm, and I wouldn’t have the same amount of down time as I did the first try. So I wasn’t watching when the second boil occurred. And then, during the third attempt, I got a phone call and looked away long enough to miss the boil start, and so on…
Ultimately it turns out a watched kettle does boil. You just have to be really committed to witnessing it happen.
Not enough! I demand more Bob content!
Technically, sugar DOES also caramelize while you watch it. It just FEELS like it takes forever.
Hey, you should try to do more jokes like that Carlos Mencia, that Dane Cook, and expecially that Larry Cable Guy (git er done! that kills me). Them guys is funny.
You’re doing OK, but you need to try some obervational humour, the kind that the everyman can relate to and enjoy. Example: “Why did the farmer start a punk rock band? Because he was tired of Haulin’ oats!” Haulin’ oats, like the popular rock singers Hall and Oats, get it?
