We have a sixteen-ounce water bottle. We're going to leave it on the ground. We're going to set a timer for it right now to see how long it takes for it to freeze and I'm sure it will be frozen well before the end of this newscast" before appearing to have her saying, "While we were out here -- when we first got out here about an hour ago, we started an experiment with this water bottle over here because we wanted to see how long it would take for it to freeze. Now it's not totally frozen yet, but definitely about give it about twenty percent frozen out, uh --  it took about an hour for it to get that way, but don't let that trick you because it's not totally frozen yet because I am totally frozen out here. All right, well, we'll keep you guys updated on the water bottle situation and for now reporting live from the courthouse square in Bay Minette, Christina Andress, News 5"))".
