newspaper also contains some form of opacifier, so that the print from the page behind it doesn't "read through." Early on, titanium dioxide was used. Later, bleached clay and calcium dioxide were used. these opacifiers gave the paper its opaqueness as well as its stiffness. The higher the opaqueness of the paper, the longer it will retain its "whiteness".
Ahoy there! I live in Wisconsin and I'm fairly certain we have a minimum requirement for types of cheese in the refrigerator 🤔 Currently have 5. Port Wine, Sharp Cheddar, shredded Co-Jack, string cheese, and a Mexican shred for quesadillas, Napoleon 🤓 as for favorite, Ellsworth cheese curds are tasty and I found a gruyere and white cheddar blend that is amazing 🤩
I always loved that part in “Monster House” where they find the house’s “uvula” and one of them says “that must be the house’s uvula!” and the other says “so it’s a girl house”. 😝 How was that in that movie? 😆
Already knew some of these, like the umbra and oobleck(thanks to The Big Bang Theory 😝). lol When you mentioned the zamboni, it reminded me of a Peanuts comic strip I read once. Linus and Sally are in a pumpkin patch, and I forget what's said at first, but near the end, Sally's like, "I hear something..." Eagerly, Linus asks, "Is it the great pumpkin?" Then Sally yells, highly annoyed, since it's Snoopy riding by on a zamboni, "NO, it's a ZAMBONI!!" That one cracks me up! 😂
Heya Mike! #7, Lagniappe has a different name in Japan, where these small extras or gifts that are given with a purchase is called Omake [Oh-maa-kay] Just wanted to offer the term, I've used it for decades!
Dolores Jay of Elkton, Va. was one of the most studied cases of xenoglossy. With no German language study or exposure in her life, she started speaking German in 1970, while under hypnosis for pain treatment. She assumed the persona of "Gretchen," who said she was living in Eberswalde, Germany in the 1870s. Each time she was hypnotized over the next few years, she would identify as the same person. Once, she also displayed "xenography," meaning she could write in German, and her hand writing was different when she was writing in the language as Gretchen under hypnosis. Pretty freaky.
A cronut kind of reminds me of a crulller or a French egg donut that's been folded over in different amounts of time. I love those donuts so much, their my favorite is that they're not as overly starchy as a regular donut. They're almost like eating a croissant with the insides of a nice light custard with glaze on top.
Sorry to correct mike but the tree is not the largest organism MEET ostoyae which covers 3.5 square miles (9.1 km2), (2,240 acres (910 ha) which may weigh as much as 35,000 tons. It is currently the world's largest single living organism.
Funny little thing. Had gone to see Crocodile Dundee, someone asked what movie I had seen when, in an Aussie accent I said the movie. Plus when I get quite angered at times I find myself slipping into it.
Who wants yesterday's papers other than those of us who want souvenirs of an event? ..... libraries and archives. Those they don't always keep or have the original, it's more likely to be digital or sometimes old analogue copies, like microfiche film. Sometimes when you're cleaning out an old cupboard or doing building work, you might find old newspapers or bits of old newspaper.
Thank you Mike! You just gave me a history lesson of my own state, which is Utah. I have never heard the word Pando, nor Fish Lake National Forest. That was really fun to learn😀! With answering the phone, I think we should take after Uncle Jessie from the show “Full House”, and answer the phone like he did, “Talk to me!” 😂
Ahoy (Ahoj) is used in Slovakia and the Czech Republic as a Hello 🙂. It's informal but used by most people. We often pick up the phone, saying Ahoj when friends call us. Next time you meet someone from SK or CZ, say Ahoy, and they will instantly like you. I don't know what it is, but this greeting feels so friendly. Pronunciation is the same as in English 😊
You can tell if an egg fresh without breaking it open by dropping it in a glass of water. If it sinks to the bottom the egg is fresh. If it floats it’s time to throw them out.
Pulchritudinous: Slowly came to mean "stacked", as in Dolly Parton. There was an hilarious exchange on an episode of Johnny Carson in which he tried to explain the Yiddish "zofftig" to Dolly! Ooblech: I believe was invented by Dr. Seuss in a story about someone who wished for a new kind of weather: "Bartholomew and the Ooblech." (I think---the last time I read it was sixty-some years ago!) Nurdles: Are the form of recycled plastics used to make plastic sheeting, including made-from-recycled plastic bags. You can see them flattened if you put a strong light behind a bag made that way. I have even seen them used to establish a link between a box of bags in a suspect's possession and the one wrapping the body at a murder scene! Epiphyte: I don't have a brown thumb, I have a BLACK thumb. Cactus die on me. AIRFERNS die on me!
I'm old enough to remember answering a phone call, by repeating my phone number, before saying hello, which was done to confirm the person on the other end of the line, had got the right number. Nowadays you would just say, sorry you have the wrong number, if they do, because our phones list what number you are phoning and is phoning you.
Btw referring to uvula as not a ‘dirty’ word-supposed vulva is-anatomical names are NEVER ‘dirty’ ONLY our ridiculously Puritan country thinks so. As we’re ONLY ridiculous country that has no issues w/ 16 yr olds having unfettered access to near-military grade weapons, despite 2x as many mass sh@outings as days in the year
It's actually Tirophile, no Turophile. Greek for cheese is "Tiri". I know, I speak Greek as I'm Cypriot origin. My favourite cheese is Cheddar and Halloumi
