OREOS VS. BREAD

If you leave a package of Oreo cookies sitting out, they will get stale and soft.

If you leave a slice of bread sitting out, it will get stale and hard.

Why?

I would think that both of these baked goods would end up with moisture contents related to the household's internal humidity, and thus end up with similar degrees of pliability.

Scientists and/or bakers, please explain.

WHAT A HORRIBLE THOUGHT

Not only are Hanson still together, they're coming to Milwaukee, so I'm hearing commercials for their concert on the radio.

That's not the horrible thought, though.

Consider Hanson's hit MMMBop.

Here's the chorus:

MMMbop tick a ta ba do ba
dubi da ba do ba
tick a ta ba doo
yeah eh yeah

Here's the horrible thought:

That's what they recorded.

At some point, there was a first draft, and it was so mind-bogglingly horrible that it was rejected in favor of the wretched demon-flatulence listed above because - by comparison - said sickly ear-barf actually sounded GOOD.

Just pray that no copy of that first draft ever falls into the wrong hands, or we're all doomed.
