bubbles

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-eight years and a million words

Tokyo, 2009.06.19

Someone gave us a bottle of blowing-bubble mix with a cute little built-in ring that emerges when you squeeze the bottle. Kenny delights in seeing the bubbles wander around, and I have to say that aside from the clever bottle it's clear that there have been some advances in bubble mix formulation over the years. These bubbles can drift around slowly for several minutes, and I've seen them travel in sudden swoops and around corners into strong winds and even bounce off of things -- all intact.

Anyway, it's good cheap fun and if you're trying to keep a small child entertained for a while I recommend it.

You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose. You're on your own. And you know what you know. And YOU are the guy who'll decide where to go.
