Trending on Facebook: So How Does Your Broom Stand?

I know, I know, we've all got too much time on our hands.

If you spend anytime at all on Facebook, at least in Walton/Gwinnett County circles, you will see plenty of brooms - just standing there. Nothing supporting them, except for gravity. Well, that's not technically true because it really is standing there in defiance of gravity. Everything tells you the broom should fall down - just look at the height to weight ratio - but it doesn't.

I don't really know why - maybe someone can tell me - but after seeing everybody else's brooms just standing there, I finally gave in and tried it myself. Yes, that is my broom just standing in my entrance way. It might look like it's leaning against the door, but that's just an optical illusion, it's standing up there all on its own. I intend to leave it there until my husband gets home, just to freak him out. I will, of course, have to brace myself for the obvious comment, "You going somewhere? Why didn't you park it in the garage?"

So, how does your broom stand?
