BUSTED!!!!
Shut up, you’re making me laugh!!!!!!!!! I’m paying attention now.
Archimedes’ Principle: volume of a solid is equal to the volume of water it displaces.
Densities of typical solids and liquids in g/ml
Substance
Density
Gasoline
0.68
Ice

Water
1.00
Salt
2.16
Iron
7.86
Lead

Mercury

I realize Chemistry is important, you know, in our daily lives and everything. But seriously. What possible use is knowing the density of gasoline going to be in my future capacity as ruler of Genovia?

Wednesday, September 8, the limo on the way home from the Ritz-Carlton
When I walked into Grandmère’s suite at the Ritz today (the W was apparently so unsatisfactory, she only stayed one night), I was totally shocked to find my father there.
I’d forgotten he was coming into town for the UN’s General Assembly.
And he ’d apparently forgotten that it’s never a good idea to drop by to see Grandmère before cocktail hour (she’s been told by her physician that she can’t have any more three-Sidecar luncheons if she doesn’t want her angina acting up) because she is more than a little cranky.
“Look at this!” she was saying, as she shook a pillow in my dad’s face. “Mere seven-hundred-threadcount sheets! It’s scandalous! No wonder Rommel has a rash!”
“Rommel always has a rash,” my dad said tiredly. Then he noticed I’d come in, and he said, “Hi, honey. Long time no— What happened to your hair? ”
I didn’t even bother getting offended. Having your boyfriend announce he’s moving to Japan has a way of causing you to get your priorities straight.
“I got it cut,” I said. “I don’t care if you don’t like it. I don’t have to mess with it anymore, and that’s all that matters. To me, anyway.”
“Oh,” Dad said. “It’s, uh. Cute. What’s the matter?”
“What? Nothing.”
“Something’s the matter, Mia. I can tell.”
“It’s really nothing,” I assured him. Just the knowledge that all my parents have to do is look at my face and knowsomething is wrong made me realize how very much I must actually be hurting by this Michael thing. Because I’m TRYING to hide it. I really am. For Michael’s sake. Because I know I should be excited and happy for him.
And I AM excited and happy for him.
Except for the part where I’m weeping. On the inside.
“Are you listening to me, Phillipe?” Grandmère was demanding. “You know Rommel requires eight-hundred-threadcount sheets at the very least .”
Dad sighed. “I’ll have some thousand-count sheets sent over from Bergdorf’s, all right? Mia, I know something’s wrong. What’s your mother done now? Got arrested at another one of her war protests? I’ve told her to stop chaining herself to things.”
“It’s not Mom ,” I said, throwing myself onto a brocade-covered chaise lounge. “She hasn’t chained herself to anything in years .”
“Well, she’s a very…unpredictable woman,” my dad said. Which is his way of saying, as nicely as possible, that Mom is flighty and irresponsible about a lot of things. But not her kids. “But you’re right, I shouldn’t jump to conclusions. It’s nothing to do with Frank, is it? The two of them are getting along all right? It’s very stressful having a new baby in the house. Or so I
