Nope just dihydrogen monoxide or DHMO.

Death due to accidental inhalation of DHMO, even in small quantities.
Prolonged exposure to solid DHMO causes severe tissue damage.
Excessive ingestion produces a number of unpleasant though not typically life-threatening side-effects.
DHMO is a major component of acid rain.
Gaseous DHMO can cause severe burns.
Contributes to soil erosion.
Leads to corrosion and oxidation of many metals.
Contamination of electrical systems often causes short-circuits.
Exposure decreases effectiveness of automobile brakes.
Found in biopsies of pre-cancerous tumors and lesions.
Given to vicious dogs involved in recent deadly attacks.
Often associated with killer cyclones in the U.S. Midwest and elsewhere, and in hurricanes including deadly storms in Florida, New Orleans and other areas of the southeastern U.S.
Thermal variations in DHMO are a suspected contributor to the El Nino weather effect.

The King of Belgium



Despised by many for being King instead of an elected official.
But i kinda like having a King around here.

He came to the throne when his older brother died childless at 60 something.

Albert was never supposed to become king, he kinda lived a life that was easy going.. go shake some hands, ride his motorcycle or fast car to the point where his Secret Service escort couldn't follow and exited the turn in the wrong kind of way (happened a couple of times)...
So when Boudewijn died of a Heart attack and Prince Filip (son of Albert) was deemed not mature/ready enough to take the throne as was originally planned. Albert was given the gig, and it was quite a shock to him.

Anyway, the poor guy is 73 or something.. Whatever he does , he get's dumped upon by half the country.. because half the Country feels he is the evil ruler of Frenchspeaking part of Belgium hell bent on supressing the poor Flemish. When as far as i can tell, he's just an old man who inhrerited the rotten job of trying to keep this Country together despite having no real legal power and a bunch of selfserving @sshole politicians that really should just be shipped off on a boat to Africa...Sure the royals come at a certain price in terms of upkeep.. But as far as Royals go, ours are pretty cheap compared to the UK, NL , others. And the ROI comes in terms of Goodwill on trade missions.. Most business men abroad still go kinda weak in the knees when there is a Royal in a trade mission.. that in turn translates in million dollar deals being made..Those millions outweigh the upkeep.


Frankly, i think the poor guy just wishes he could go ride his bike again.. And this picture kinda confirms my belief.

The only palace in the history of this country was in Hawaii, King Kamehameha's palace. We got rid of the British Kings a long time ago.

The entire Monarchy idea is seen as quaint by most Americans except the press. I know the American press went nuts when the they had the recent marriage in Great Brittan. Every night they has endless stupid stories about the wedding. I would rather watch grass grow than watch a royal wedding.

Thanks.

Our Azaelia (I don't know how to spell that name) is blooming nicely. I was taking pics and he was watching.
