Ask Dr. LJ: Floating objects

Okay, this has been driving us around the bend at work for weeks.

What is an object, preferably spherical or close to it, that would float below the surface in the water? Fresh or salt, either's fine. Something recognizable to kids and preferably visually interesting.

Good grief.

So I get home just shy of 11 o'clock after a friend's birthday dinner. I flip on the TV to see what happened in the Rockies-Padres game.

Only to find that it's still going on.

Currently 6-6 going into the bottom of the 11th. I guess, whoever wins, you're getting your wish, stellavision...
