...Barely tolerable, I daresay...

That the clear liquid they put in those Galileo thermometers is usually gasoline? Neither did we.....

Sis had hers drop from the top of her tv and now the whole house reeks of gasoline! OMG! It stinks to high heaven and I don't know what all she got the gas on. Is the whole house going up in flames? WTF!?!?

One site I looked at said their thermometers only had water in them. The next site I went to said: "The liquid inside the Galileo is clear and
contains paraffin and petroleum distillates, which are found in many household
products." Isn't that lovely? WTF? Why would you put something volitile in an object made of GLASS???

So we are now left wondering if the whole room my sister is staying in is going to spontaneously combust. I told her to take as many items that have the gas on them outside as she can. I don't know if she got it on the carpet. Her room is a mess and she doesn't let me in (even when there are books or items I want from there). If it's on the carpet, I'm figuring it's ruined. Oy!

My head hurts.

It stinks in here.

Avoid these thermometers!
