ER

Every once in a while I like to take a freezing cold shower in winter. Why? For the same reason I sometimes go without liquids, or food, or sleep, or work out to the brink of falling over, or refuse local anesthetic in surgery, or have done the Crucible multiple times: to show my central nervous system this little ash-blonde princess people think of as a soccer mom is the motherf**king boss, that's why. Booyaah!

Ahem, where was I? Oh, yes: true or false?
What does not kill me makes me stranger.

Interviewer-"Does Dracula ever end for you?
Lugosi-"No. Dracula-never ends."

Well of course it's false: I haven't been a soccer mom in several years.

The name of my English Public school in Zimbabwe has the same name as a very famous British actor.  :smile:

If I could give you karma for that, I would  :smile:

No, not Sir Michael but the actor I was thinking of was also a Sir.

No, I'll fess up 😁

From 1980 to 1984, I went to Chaplin High School in Gweru.

Our opponents in sports used to call us The Charlies but not to our faces 😳

Priests among the Aztecs kept a book called Tlictlipos, no copies of which are known to be extant, that reportedly listed and described some 247 methods by which a human being might be killed.

False. The Aztecs had no books.

You're half right. The Aztecs had great libraries of books til the Spanish burned them, but I did make that book up

I'm not sure the Aztecs had books; but I know the Maya did produce them in Codex form. Nearly all are now lost.

Dear- no. The Aztecs did not have paper.
They did not have libraries on paper. Ever.
