February 2, 2012 The Shadow Knows
 Today is the day I'm supposed to look for my shadow with the whole world watching. If I see my shadow we'll have six more weeks of winter and if I do not see my shadow we'll have spring. Do I look or do I not? If I don't look and see my shadow, even though it is there, will we have spring? image via Betty at The Countryside of New Jersey |

Looks like six more weeks for us ...
If they are going to be like yesterday or today, bring it! It has been gorgeous here.

We have a number of questions/ statements posted along the corridor in school.
Some are riddles, some just designed to make you think. One still has me baffled: Think of an object that does not cast a shadow. Given a source of light, surely everything corporeal casts a shadow? |

A pane of window glass does cast a shadow, just a very faint one (roughly 10% of the light doesn't make it through).
Maybe the answer is the Sun?

Naughty FFF.
 Any object in complete darkness does not cast a shadow.
