The guy said they would eat the guppies if they were in the same tank! I don't like angel fish - eldest son had a pair, and they killed everything else he put into the tank.

I've done my grocery shopping and some jam tarts fell into my trolley.

<- tarts for everyone.

*grabs jam tart*
A little cannibalistic those angel fish Yogi
I wonder how they got their names if the are like that?

They ought to be called Devil Fish.

I think the they may have been called Angel Fish due to they way they look, rather than how they behave.

They had indeed

They may look angelic but that's about it

And working upwards from tridecanol there's tetradecanol (C₁₄H₃₀O)

Then going downwards frron undecanol eventually there's ethanol (C₂H₆O or C₂H₅OH) which some of us are known to have consumed though combined with other chemicals

Not forgetting CH3OH or MeOH as us experts call it. I wonder which of us have consumed that. Probably those of us who paid a few marki for a bottle of Pontikka.

Alcohol content by volume for various drinks per Wiki can be seen on this link:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcohol_by_volume

Poteen (or poitin in that article) is very very high on that list, well above the alcohol content of most spirits.

I was just thinking it was lucky your heating was fixed, as the temperature outside has dropped quite a bit tonight.

Are you expecting PB this weekend?

When you say sports orientated, you do mean spectating and not participating, don't you?

Yes, it's a PB day tomorrow. I've got Harv tonight on a sleepover. He can't go to PB's other grandmother's house because he is afraid of her wee dog.

4/25/141:40 PM

A relaxing weekend, that's unusual for you - enjoy!

Cesar certainly gets amazing results. I loved his old pitbull called Daddy, he was a fabulous dog with such a great temperament.
