Alright, fellow Arizona Republic readers. Who reads the back page of the “Valley & State” section? With Clay Thompson? Anyways, to all of you who don’t receive this newspaper, Clay Thompson, in his column “Valley 101″ explains answers to questions that people might have about how things work. Like today’s question was, “How come when you burn logs, it makes noise?” Maybe I should start a blog devoted to that kind of stuff. I bet it would get a lot of traffic. Uh-oh, I can smell my rice!
