Default Answer: Ducks, Witches, Wood and my VF liner

Question: Name four things that float.

Yup. The VF rose up our of the ground this weekend. I still have not
completed that area of Shareholders Pond, so the liner is sitting on the
ground overlapping a large pile of dirt. We have had Ark type rain storms
for days now. Enough water got under that un-buried lip and lift the VF
right up. Luckily I had a pump on hand to get the water out from under the
liner, and reset. I guess I have to get this done, ASAP.

Witches float?

Actually, no---

Sir Bedeve There are ways of telling whether she is a witch.
Peasant 1: Are there? Oh well, tell us!
Sir Bedeve Tell me. What do you do with witches?
Peasant 1: Burn them!
Sir Bedeve And what do you burn, apart from witches?
Peasant 1: More witches!
Peasant 2: Wood!
Sir Bedeve Correct. Now, why do witches burn?
Peasant 3: ...because they're made of... wood?
Sir Bedeve Good. So how do you tell whether she is made of wood?
Peasant 1: Build a bridge out of her!
Sir Bedeve But don't we also build bridges out of stone?
Peasant 1: Oh yeah.
Sir Bedeve Now, does wood float in water?
Peasant 1: No, no... Throw her into the pond!
Sir Bedeve No, no. What else floats in water?
Peasant 1: Bread!
Peasant 2: Apples!
Peasant 3: Very small rocks!
Peasant 2: Cherries! Great lumpy gravy!
Peasant 3: Crutches!
King Arthur: A Duck!
Sir Bedeve Exactly!
(Monty Python and the Holy Grail)

Yeah, yeah, too much time on my hands....
Back to tossing witches in the pond..... (Unfortunately, I have no ducks)

filmalogical proof snipped

But if a she weighs the same as a duck, then she is made of wood, so she
must be a witch. So logically (even though it's not in the movie) if she
weighs as much as a duck, and ducks float, then she must be made of EPDM and
will float given enough water underneath her.

So, then we can line a hole with her and fill her with water and put some
plants and fish in? I'm all for it!
