Quick! To the (equally nasty) pig powder!

Ho ho...

A few years ago a friend of mine was rubbing two rare earth magnets across his temples in an amusing attempt to brain wash himself. As he lowered the magnets they jumped together - one shot inside his mouth and the other snapped on to his bottom lip. Scratched teeth and no small amount of blood.... how we laughed!!

:lol:

What a pillock... :roll:

That pixie dust stuff does work, actually. I've seen it used (it's very expensive though). If you shatter a long bone they'll fix the bone apart, sprinkle some powder in there and you're on your way to growing new bone to bridge the gap - it's pretty darn cool.

It's nothing magical obviously, just growth factors stuff, a bit like the stuff you dip the ends of plant offcuts in I suppose.

we moved house recently and I found I had a couple of video games in a drawer with my megabertha and I only really cared about one of them but the game save was wiped unfortunately

so I packed all my magnets in a bag and put them in the boot of my mothers car and they're now in a bottom drawer in my room far away from everything else and now too scared to take them out incase all the data in my room gets wiped,

should I just worry about keeping the megabertha away from everything else? the rest is a raven, pk ring and a series of small magnets that came with the bertha, of course I wouldn't dream of putting any magnets of any size or strength in direct contact with anything with data on

This was probably not the best thread to read just before going for dinner. That hurt just looking at it!

Whilst we're on the subject of neodyniums... this is a bit cheeky, but if anyone feels able to pop a single neo, approximately 5mm diameter (really not fussy, it'll be hidden) and fairly slim, in an envelope and send it to me, would they let me know...?! :oops:

I don't use neos and sold off all the ones I had to FairySnuff - now I find myself needing just one (to put on the inside of a matchbox to hold a small metal nut, ready to be stolen for Doc Eason's "All Screwed Up" routine) and don't want to have to order a whole pack when, as I said, I only need the one...

Farlsborough makes the comment". . . .Doc Eason's "All Screwed Up" routine. . . "

It is NOT -- repeat, NOT -- Doc Eason's routine, as he has pointed out.

It was originally published in Genii, about 1960, and was the brainchild of an Alabama magician named Frings, now deceased I believe.
