Wouldn't that depend on what the rat was eating? Was this a grain fed rat or free range?

I've been hearing these radio ads for Pearl Vision. They're touting their 'high definition' eyeglass lenses.

My glasses don't have these, does that mean that I'm seeing everything in standard definition or maybe even low def?   :o

Do I need 3-D glasses to see stuff in 3-D too?    8)

Not yet, soon though.

I'm going to sit in the hot tub this morn. Ain't nothing like sittin in that 103 degree water when it's that cold out. When it's this cold the entire room fills with steam mist as soon as I open her up. I may have to chip a lil ice off the lid first though.

Saw a beautiful sight on the way into work this morning. An ice crystal rainbow. Not a cloud in the sky, the car said that the temp was minus 3F and it looked something like this.

Yabut, did you get to sit in a hot tub with your second cup of coffee?    :)

A wheel is a circular component that is intended to rotate on an axial bearing. The wheel is one of the main components of the wheel and axle which is one of the six simple machines. Wheels, in conjunction with axles, allow heavy objects to be moved easily facilitating movement or transportation while supporting a load, or performing labor in machines. Wheels are also used for other purposes, such as a ship's wheel, steering wheel, potter's wheel and flywheel.
 
Common examples are found in transport applications. A wheel greatly reduces friction by facilitating motion by rolling together with the use of axles. In order for wheels to rotate, a moment needs to be applied to the wheel about its axis, either by way of gravity, or by the application of another external force or torque.

Wheels are still used as an archaic form of measurement throughout Mid-World and the Borderlands...

I have a wheel that is attached to a foot counter and you roll it on the ground to get a measurement. Hardly archaic.

Yes and Roland, along with his Ka-tet, has walked many a wheel in these territories.
