Great Scott! I’ve done it – it’s true!!\u00a0 \u00a0The broom challenge- it works!
\nAnd best of all.. it’ll work tomorrow, and next month – even a year from now!
\nThere’s nothing special going on with the Earth’s tilt or gravitational pull
\non specific days of the year – and HERE COMES THE SCIENCE ON WHY….<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

And, how’s this for a shocker – you can even balance other objects any old way you
\nlike, just so long as – you know – you BALANCE them!
\nAnd you can do it on any old DAY you like and from any old PLACE you like too for that matter.
\nExhibit A; Let’s go back in time EIGHT YEARS AGO to the Hard Rock Resort
\nin Punta-Cana\u00a0 and\u00a0 witness this magic at the swim-up bar in Party Pool #3:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

So that’s not a broom, granted, but it was much tastier.
\nWhat that really is, however, is a fancy balancing act and it’s no different in
\npractice really, from what you can do with your broom if motivated –
\nSay, by a trendy twitter challenge.<\/p>\n

Either that. or the Earth is flat for one day. Or maybe the core aligns with the Sun
\nand some of the planets to pull the water in our bodies and nearby objects
\ninto some kind of synergy – and we must tell EVERYBODY about the astro-magic!<\/p>\n

Therefore, here’s my possessed broom! Witness the sorcery!!!!!!<\/p>\n

(and yes, that is a very healthy-selection of Grey Goose vodka in the wine-
\nrack, I know. Thanks for noticing!)
