Once in high school chemistry class my lab partner and I mixed a bunch of left over chemicals. The teacher kind of freaked out over the purple Haze coming out of the beaker. Evacuated the lab and we got a bit of an ass chewing.

"Purple," you say? Was it Hydrogen Sulfide? That does produce a purple color when created in a beaker. I know this because my HS chemistry teacher did it in class, once, as a demonstration. And yeah, it had that sulfury "rotten eggs" odor to it. But since it's poisonous/toxic, in sufficient concentrations, he didn't let us get too close to the beaker. He also did the same with Chlorine gas, which turns green/yellow. Thankfully, he didn't do the same with Hydrogen Cyanide! :D

He was really a cool teacher, though. He had a cork board where he pegged various chemistry related things, including the chemical formula of various "every day" substances. One of which happened to be the chemical formula for THC :eek:. It was to show the difference between THC ("domestic") and Canabolic Acid (Mexican/Acapulco Gold). The difference being the addition of the carboxyl group that gets added (making it an acid, not an alcohol) from the stronger/brighter sunlight in the Guerrero and Michoacan states.

I think my teacher would be fired/cancelled today, if not arrested! :mad:

Set your standards ultra high (and unachievable) so you have an excuse for never getting laid.


This right here 100%. All I see is just some of them complaining and friggin' complaining more. Good grief. "Have you ever fucking tried to actually talk to people like they are fellow human beings? Like, with mutual understanding of basic etiquette and respect of personal boundaries, both physically and topic of conversation wise?" It is basic social and life skills to start with and the fact that some ADULTS still do not get this is a bit concerning...

I for one, will claim that title.
Andre has some hotties in his String Section. ;)

Saw him live about 5 or 6 years ago in Trier Germany. Actually, pretty cool show.

Kinda felt like I needed to see Rammstein the next night. But alas, no show scheduled.

He is a true showman and knows how to carry an audience. He also obviously loves what he does. I’ve been to live shows of music by artists from bluegrass, country, rock, metal, even opera and freakin’ Wayne Newton (don’t ask). If a band or the person/people on stage love what they do and know how to capture an audience, it will be a great show, no matter the genre. If they are only in it for the money, it shows right through and it will generally suck.

My opinion.

You're right on the money. I was a Stagehand and and Soundman in my earlier years. I saw (most) all of it, up close and personal. Once a performer has reached national/international status, all the posers/moneygrubbers have been weeded out.

When I was young, that was called being considerate. Since the internet came along, social skills have went to shit.
