Subject: RE: BS: Bones From: Rapparee Date: 17 Aug 04 - 05:22 PM One thing: never, ever, mix ammonia and chlorine bleach. The results can be fatal at worst, awful at best. Both ammonia and chlorine gases are liberated, and they can literally rot out your lungs if you breath them. Believe this. I tell you this so you can learn from the experience of someone else. |
Subject: RE: BS: Bones From: Rasener Date: 17 Aug 04 - 05:27 PM When we stayed on the South coast of Chios ( a small greek island just off the Turkish Coast) , we had a room in a taverna on the beach. The room next door was used for cleaning all the fish that was caught. It smelt disgusting. What was worse was that in the morning you wanted a shower shave and Sh**. Great you were able to do that in the public toilet. The shower head was above the toilet base on the floor. So you stood with feet wide apart so you didn't stand in all the smelly t***s, whilst you had a shower. However if you timed it to perfection you could have a sh** whilst you attempted to have a shower. Anybody walking by could see what you were doing or could come in and have one themselves. With a bit of practice, I was able to shave at the same time. You didn't need any toilet paper because the shower acted like a bide. Those were the days :-) Maybe that is why El Greko now lives near St Albans :-) |

Subject: RE: BS: Bones From: Rasener Date: 18 Aug 04 - 11:26 AM Do you think El Greko has a toilet like that in his house :-) LOL |
Subject: RE: BS: Bones From: Bee-dubya-ell Date: 22 Aug 04 - 12:05 PM Free advice. Resist the temptation to use the top of your toilet tank as a place to keep knick-knacks, cosmetics, perfume bottles, medicine bottles or anything else that is small and could easily be knocked into the toilet bowl. I once had to completely remove a toilet and turn it upside-down to remove a stuck perfume bottle my wife had left on the tank top. |

Subject: RE: BS: Bones From: SINSULL Date: 23 Aug 04 - 08:39 PM Yes, jOhn. Chicken bones are rubbish so put them in the trash. |
Subject: RE: BS: Bones From: Cluin Date: 24 Aug 04 - 01:37 PM Yes. Then you can see what else has been thrown in your bin and you can start another thread on that. |

Subject: RE: BS: Bones From: Scrump Date: 01 Feb 07 - 08:54 AM Best to dissolve the bones in a bath of acid Mwahahahahahahahahaha (with lots of reverb) |
Subject: RE: BS: Bones From: Scoville Date: 01 Feb 07 - 09:43 AM I had an anthropology class in college that required us to dissolve "paleofeces" (read: really old human waste) in a solution and then catalog what we found in it. The sample I studied had jackrabbit vertebrae. I'm hoping they were acquired after-the-fact in the midden heap and weren't eaten and passed with everything else. Ouch! |
