Off topic Wednesday....


Why is it round? Off Topic
Have you ever noticed that God created most things preferring the round shape? The sun is round as are the moon and Earth. Rocks are generally round as are trees, starting blades of grass, even our bodies. Look at your arms, legs, head, you name it. Round. Did you ever see a square or rectangular tree? Does a rabbit burrow a square hole or a bird make a square nest? No! Think about it.
Now consider what humans build. Squares, rectangles, and even triangles like the pyramids. Homes, windows, cell phones, cars, even tunnels are not round. Inside the home consider your refrigerator, T.V., computer screen, shredder, paper you write on, books, even your washing machine. I can think of clocks that are sometimes round and canned food and tires but not much else. Odd, isn't it. I guess the Inuits have it right when they build their igloos. Round is stronger with less wind resistance but we humans know better, don't we.
