Nope, didn't get an alert :/
Well, I guess you could, but the word doesn't exist ^^
(I just noticed that "Fuchs" probably sounds very similar to a naughty word. It's not pronounced with k alright?)
Where's that map from? ^^
Have to correct you, "waschen" is the German word for washing. So it would more translate to "washing bear". I have no idea why though ^^
The German word for masked would be "maskiert"![]()
I got to watch a Concorde land at Memphis International Airport a long time ago. I just happened to be right next to the airport when it came in. Pretty awesome.
How is everyone doing? Well, I hope. Congrats on Australia putting out all those fires, by the way.
Someone needs to make a campy barren-earth type film where all the trees were mown down during a pandemic to meet the demand for toilet paper.
Why would you go to school at 11AM Sunday?G'day Kee! I'm pretty good, but dreading having to go back to uni in 1 1/2 days![]()
Why would you go to school at 11AM Sunday?
I'm doing all right. I can't complain. Actually, I CAN complain, but no one would care. lol
I'm going to go see the movie Onward tomorrow afternoon with Draconis and two other Furry friends, then dinner. Hopefully it will be a good day.
Lol!
Well, it's Saturday over here, and I go back on Monday.
Ah, glad you're doing finelol, I care!
*wraps paw around you*
Yeah... I was just making fun of the time difference. It's 11PM Friday here right now.
I don't worry too much about having bad days because I have all my Furry friends to support me. *Hugs*
Thanks. Yeah, you guys help me over more rough spots than you know. I just try not to complain much because I know some people like to do it for attention.Dawww, that's lovely man!!!*hugs back and gives tulips*
I'm currently writing a full length FACTS, but I thought why not post a mini-facts in the meantime?
Here's another incident which could only happen in the USSR
Particle physics is a serious business and, if in 1970s Soviet Russia, a very dangerous one as well. So dangerous in fact that a physicist by the name of Anatoli Bugorski managed to get shot in the face by a proton beam while working at a particle accelerator. This is basically like an invisible high energy laser, and is believed to have been equivalent to 76 billion volts. It burned a channel through his skin, bone and brain before shooting back out. All Bugorski saw as a light 'brighter than a thousand suns' before his face swelled up beyond recognition and was taken to a hospital to die.
Only...he didn't die, despite receiving radiation way above a lethal dose. Moreover, the lasting effects of the injury were comparatively mild (paralysis on one side of the face, deafness in one ear, epilepsy and fatigue), and was able to complete his PhD! Furthermore, the paralysed side of his face looks far younger than the rest of him, so I suppose that's a bonus

This reminds me of Phineas Gage, except a lot moreThis is basically like an invisible high energy laser, and is believed to have been equivalent to 76 billion volts.
