It must be a percentage thing...adding 4 to 36 versus adding 4 to 30.

Exactly; the ratio of change is 13% vs 11. It just makes sense.

Hold out your arms in front of you, palms down. Turn you hands palms up. Are your elbows flat or do they move?

Impossible. She doesn't like Canadians ever since her family was thrown out of Canada for stealing horses.

I can make a beer bottle stick to the wall with static cling.

It's the same concept as when you rub a balloon on your bead then stick it to the wall, except I don't rub the beer bottle on my head. I use the wall.

I lost a bet to an old lady once in a bar many years ago. I bet her a beer she couldn't do it, I was wrong. It's won me a few beers over the years though.

I'd first start by using an empty glass beer bottle. When you get the hang of it you can use one that's full(er).

Painted walls work the best. Just take your beer bottle and place its side against the wall vertically. Use the bare glass, not where the label is. Rub up and down vertically in short strokes (6-8) inches for maybe 30 seconds, pushing very lightly. While holding the bottle firmly to the wall start to let go. You can feel if it's going to stick, if it doesn't then keep trying. It'll work.

Note: don't try this in your nicer parts of your home as it'll mar the wall some.

I've had bottles stick to the wall for over 30 minutes before.
