This is just the coolest fountain. It may appear photoshopped but this actually has a pipe hidden within the water flow that supplies the water.

You can have that if you buy a Ripley's BION museum to live in... they come with one (at least, I know the one in St. Augustine does)! ;-)

He replied with that standard chauvinistic response, "Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free?" My wife looked at him directly and retorted, "Yeah, why buy the whole pig for just a little sausage?" Go »Compassion
I haven't posted since the incident in January and used that time to do a lot of soul-searching. A lot of it was fruitless. I told my boss' boss of the circumstances behind my asking for a day off because my boss was vacationing at the time. Go »Differences That Make All The Difference
Recent discussion with Brenda: me: There's such a huge difference between how I interact with people at work and how I interact with the people in my home. Brenda: How so? me: At work, I spend all day talking about banking practices and domestic and international finance. Go »

Yeah they had one of those every year at the local fair, and i figured out pretty quick that it's just a clear pipe along the inside...it's cool though.
