And we are all very fortunate that is so.

Alaska's always somewhere I've wanted to see...like the Monkey House at a Zoo (please tell me if this is a bit on the harsh side)

No, there are some places in Alaska that are a great deal like the monkey house at the zoo.

I vaguely remember a story years ago about counterfeit $1 bills being circulated. What was unusual is that they were poor quality counterfeits. George Washington didn't look quite right and his name was misspelled besides. People hardly noticed.<br><br>So, if you want to be a successful counterfeiter, do the small bills. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... iggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo--><br>

I did see a home gold plating kit somewhere in a shop. This guy next to me said if he bought it he'd gold plate his dog...I wasn't going to spoil his day telling him about electrolysis. I mean, he looked so <i>happy</i>

Electrolysis or electroplating? They're very different things there.. Does he want a metallic doggie or a bald one?<br><br>I wonder if Millie is planning on electroplating Ozy someday.

I've thought about getting an electroplating kit to chrome stuff. It'd be fun <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... /smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

You electroplate stuff by making it the cathode in an electrolysis reaction.

Or with an electric arc . . .<br><br>But I shouldn't suggest that, since it's not as safe.<br><br>But it's a lot more exciting.
