school holiday fever

We are into the last two weeks and the kid's time is starting to weigh a bit heavy. My seven year-old has just put her head around the door to tell me that she knows why you don't get square glasses. She says, if they were square and you tipped them up to drink out of, the drink would run out of the corners. I just looked at her.

Is that right? Now I am trying to envisage doing just that. Don't you put your mouth slightly into the glass in anticipation so in fact the drink wouldn't run out of the corners? I am intrigued enough to put "square glasses" into my search angine. Looky here;



Genuine Jack Daniels square glasses. Is there something I am missing about whiskey and square glasses?
