In Mackanaw City (MI), they have had a very cold winter. The lake (Michigan) is heavily frozen.
Recently a crack in the ice developed (under pressure) and a huge wave erupted.
But, because the water was “fresh” (i.e., non salty, for those in AZ ), it, pretty much instantly froze (water,under pressure, has a higher freezing point)
OK. I was suckered. Sent the snopes link to the friend who sent me the pictures.
I have been getting “gray” posts because I haven’t given out my recipe for Jim Beam and Coke slushy. It uses this phenomenon. Here goes:
Get a pint of Jim Beam (100 proof, black label) and a 20oz plastic bottle of coke.
Get a double gulp cup from 7 - 11.
Put the whiskey and coke in the freezer. Leave it there for about 3 hours. The whiskey is 1/2 ethonal and will not freeze. The coke is under pressure in the bottle and also will not freeze, until later.
Fill the big gulp cup with ice, about 3/4 full.
Pour the whiskey over the ice.
FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY! Quickly open the coke bottle and quickly pour it into the cup. As the coke pours, it will partially freeze (it is already below freezing and the whiskey is also below 32 degrees).
Kick back on your back porch, with a cigar and your favorite 22 or pellet rifle and pling at squirrels or other vermin that are forraging in your corn field.
Alchohol, tobbaco and firearms. What a wonderful mixture :mrgreen:
