They float 'cause they're empty! Clean out your ice chest and go get some more beer!
Seriously now.....Buoyancy
"Buoyancy is what makes a piece of wood float in water. It is also what makes a battleship float on the high seas, or a block of steel float in a pool of liquid mercury. The first principle of buoyancy is very simple: (1) If a solid immersed in a fluid weighs less than an equal volume of the fluid, the solid will float. Another way of saying the same thing is, if a solid has a lower specific gravity than a fluid, the solid will float in that fluid. Specific gravity is defined as the weight of a substance divided by the weight of an equal volume of water (specific gravity of water = 1).
If the first condition is met, then the level at which the solid will float is determined by the second principle: (2) A floating object will displace its own weight in a fluid. Thus, the percentage of the solid immersed in the fluid will be equal to the specific gravity of the solid divided by the specific gravity of the fluid. For a block of wood having a specific gravity of 0.7 floating in water (specific gravity 1.0), 70% of the block will be below the water's surface."
Or were ya just goofin'?

Glad to meet ya disappointed. But why da name change?.....and soundin' "all hip"? What are you smokin'? Sounds psycho to da gig! Yep, dats da gig.....PSYCHO NERD!You just went from speaking in the 3rd person sounding all hip to full all out nerd Gig......Frankly I'm dissapointed.

Sometimes ya gotta do what ya gotta do! What better way to screw wit' y'all than throwin' some actual facts in da mix? You know; "If ya can't bedazzle 'em with brilliance, baffle 'em with bull$hit!" Then to really f*ck 'em up, give 'em some facts!Now why would anyone go out and "F" up a good thread with real and accurate facts!!!!
Its all in da gig's master plan of things with da ultimate goal bein' WORLD DOMINANCE! Oh, there ya go! Ya went and made da gig show 'is hand! Now da gig has to completely readjust 'is timetable! The world will be mine.....soon! Aw f*ckit! I'm gonna go get a Pop Tart!

"I suggested he drop it in water. Dead silence." -Make it a double.....as 'is mind raced with da burnin' question; "Why da f*ck didn't I think of that?" :thumbsup
