Long-Term Experiment of the Cereal Box Kind 2

April 11, 2011 by Michele

This is the progress on my long-term cereal box “experiment” after 5 cereal boxes and 9 cracker boxes.
To see how far I’ve come since the last time (not that far), click here.
Really, we eat that much breakfast cereal and crackers at our house. It is widely known that my body is 68% Cheerios, 20% crackers and the rest, lemonade, with trace amounts of other gunk. Does that mean I am insanely happy yet a tad sour?… Never thought about it until now.
Anyway. Thus far, the “experiment” is 8 inches (20 cm) tall and 5-1/2 inches (~14 cm) in diameter.

Note that I’ve added a “base” to the ball… Yep, that’s a base with a ball on it alright. And no, the thingie has zero to do with that great American sport known as baseball, in case you were wondering.
Now go! Have yourself a super-fine day! I’ll be back…

    Maybe it is going to be a model of the Palomar Mtn Observatory.

    I thought maybe it was a trash basket from the first photo, but I've been proven wrong. Very interesting. I'm about 80% crackers and 20% Pepsi. We're probably distantly related ๐Ÿ™‚
