my broom stood from 2p.m until 7:24 pm. and then it fell. Could not get it to balance again . Tried it today and it will not stand alone. My broom has slanted bristles so it leaned at about a 60 degree angle while standing in the kitchen. For whatever reason 7 family members located in all parts of the US with different types of brooms were able to have theirs stand alone as well.

It's just like Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny and the Tooth Fairy, it's not going to happen if you don't BELIEVE it will. The "forces" of this universe have held mysteries for millions of years, very few of which we understand

Friends were going to take me snipe hunting when I was about 13 or so. I told my Mom and she said their weren't any such thing and they will take off and leave me standing while I call them. I was shocked she knew anything about them. Found in the dictionary years later, they are long legged birds. Only suppose to go snipe hunting at night. Most birds sleep at night and calling them would scare them off anyway.
I didn't try the broom thing, too lazy to get the broom.

Mine stayed up for a couple of hours. Of course my son says it will do this any night of the year. Will have to try it out and see. Fun

We do have several planets lined up like they don't normally do to this extent. There were 4 lined up last week. Who knows.............even science hasn't proven or disproven all of lifes mysteries.
