What is a lava lamp?



The age old question still remains, "what is a lava lamp?".
Well im sure glad you asked. The lava lamp is a transparent
electrical lamp that contains a thick liquid with brightly
colored wax. The fun of the lava lamp comes when the wax is
melted. This causes the brightly colored lamp to float up and
down within the lamp.
