Apparently I'm supposed to write a fucking book in this space.....I'll just copy and paste something.

Boric acid was first prepared by Wilhelm Homberg (1652-1715) from borax, by the action of mineral acids, and was given the name sal sedativum Hombergi ("sedative salt of Homberg"). The presence of boric acid or its salts has been noted in sea-water. It is also said to exist in plants and especially in almost all fruits (A. H. Allen, Analyst, 1904, 301). The free acid is found native in certain volcanic districts such as Tuscany, the Lipari Islands and Nevada, issuing mixed with steam from fissures in the ground; it is also found as a constituent of many minerals (borax, boracite, boronatrocaicite and colemanite).Boric acid is soluble in boiling water. When heated above 170°C it dehydrates, forming metaboric acid HBO2. Metaboric acid is a white, cubic crystalline solid and is only slightly soluble in water. It melts at about 236°C, and when heated above about 300°C further dehydrates, forming tetraboric acid or pyroboric acid, H2B4O7. Boric acid can refer to any of these compounds. Further heating leads to boron trioxide.

Boric acid does not dissociate in aqueous solution, but is acidic due to its interaction with water molecules:

B(OH)3 + H2O ⇌ B(OH)4− + H+

Ka = 5.8x10−10 mol/l; pKa = 9.24.

Polyborate anions are formed at pH 7–10 if the boron concentration is higher than about 0.025 mol/L. The best known of these is the tetraborate ion, found in the mineral borax:

4B(OH)4− + 2H+ ⇌ B4O72− + 9H2O

I'm bored. So very bored. Yep, bored. I enjoy non-boring things like movies and live music. Unless it's a boring movie or a boring band, and then I don't really enjoy it.

Fighting heredity, one day at a time. Being angry. Caffeinating. Working in porn. Raising a fine upstanding young cat.

Jeez, I dunno. Smoking? Making coffee? I used to be really good at drinking too much, but I had to stop.

My moustache. Seriously, it's horrendously awesome. I now get approving looks from "the greatest generation" at the grocery store, and I'm OK with that. My cheery disposition. My ears(they stick out a tad).

Books - George R.R. Martin(even though he's probably gonna croak before he finishes "A Dance with Dragons"). Biographies. The Hardy Boys.

Movies - Blazing Saddles. The Toy. Adam-12. The Last Detail. The IT Crowd.

Music - Not country. Lately, "Jesus Christ Superstar" has been stuck in my head. MOTO. The Clorox Girls.

Food - No hummus, please.

Coffee.
Tobacco.
Chapstick.
Blazing Saddles.
Tortillas.
Kool-Aid.

The past. I have a lot of regrets. "The Jumble"....I fucking love that shit.

I guess I'm supposed to say "Out at some douchey fucking bar, watching some fucking shitband" or some happy horseshit like that.

Sigh....I STILL have a huge crush on Liz Phair. There, I said it.

Ummm.....how about this: You SHOULDN'T message me if: You think it's ok for guys to wear girl-pants. You wear flip-flops with socks. You own a pair of crocs. You dig popped collars. You don't find Pedobear funny. Pornography offends you deeply. You're a preachy vegan. You prefer milk chocolate over dark. You have a grapefruit shooter on your car.
