February 25, 2013: Watercycle (not the water cycle)


Watermelons and bicycles have very little in common, to the point where comparing them is like comparing apples and orang- oh, wait.  One is a fruit meant for animal consumption, the other is a vehicle meant for transportation.  So how one compares such radically different objects can prove to be a challenge.  Except, not really - there are a couple of ways by which this comparison can be accomplished.

The most obvious point of comparison is that both have a quality of roundness to them.  The bicycle's tires are round, and the entire watermelon is also round, albeit it is more of an ovoid.  They can also be rather heavy, with the bicycle having its weight more spread out than the fruit.  Finally, they are both large objects.
