Melting point

It seems like my sons, at the tender age of 5 and 3 respectively, discovered that at certain temperature, certain material will change it physical form from solid to liquid. In addition to that, once it in liquid form, it can flow flawlessly.

They run that experiment in our house fireplace and the result is..walla..an abstract piece of art.



I threaten to force them to do the cleaning, and after some shouting and acting, both floodgate opened wide. And, at the end, this is the outcome.

On the weather front, it is not officially winter just yet, but first batch of snow (in the form of sleet) fell yesterday night, after we came home from dental hospital. It was about 7pm and effort to take pictures out of it was unsuccessful. The kids enjoyed it very much, since they were asking about it since the very first day they were here. The mum seems to be unimpressed with it, maybe she had enough of it during her time in Nova Scotia.

Anyway, its very cold right now, so much so to go out throwing the rubbish into the bin involving thoughtfully decision making ala HAZOP session. One have to consider the consequence out of the action.

At least, I never lock myself out in cold weather. If you wonder how it feel though, maybe you want to consider to drop a line or two to this friend of mine. He has vast experience on that subject matter.

Trick or treat..Happy Halloween everybody

I delete my own post, enough said.

Well bro, back to your comment, I hope not. With all the universities producing chem eng. like goreng pisang, I don't see a bright future there. But, who knows..
