Blubber.

What is this? That's probably what you are asking. I'm asking myself why in the world i stuck my hand in this earlier today. It was for a marine science lab. I had to stick my hand in a plastic bag, then fill another bag with shortening and stick my hand with the bag on it inside the other bag. Then put another two bags on my other hand. Then I shoved them in freezing cold ice water. The lesson was supposed to represent penguins and their blubber that keeps them warm. In the end I came out successful and with numb hands. I also lost a few of my little blonde hairs on my left arm due to the duct tape that was around my wrist. OUCH! My day has consisted of various labs for marine science. This one was by far the most interesting, though.
