And Superglue tends to make things stick to other things quite nicely. Not as well as it make fingers stick to one another, though.

Well, yes ... and I thought about that. The problem was finding a "thin sheet of ferrous metal" in this area. I found a lot of very thick heavy sheets (which people use when making custom firescreens), but not so much the other stuff.

Also, I wanted to keep it as lightweight as possible. Which is why it started out as just a chalkboard with a thin piece of ferrous metal mounted to the upper part of the board.

But, I did not like the way that looked, so when I found the magnetic paint, I figured it was worth a try.

Now, I've ordered two sets of those ceramic magnets which are super strong (so strong that it was often very hard to pull even the small magnets off my regular magnet boards) ... I'm going to try those on these magnet doors. I have a feeling that they will work pretty well ... probably more like regular magnets on ferrous metal.

Well, we'll see anyway.

I don't pay you at all, friend, and I only feel I've got my money's worth if I get to pay some laddy and I leave with a prescription.

Hmm, Answers tells me:

What should I tell my health care provider before I take this medicine?

They need to know if you have any of these conditions:
• frequently drink alcohol or alcohol-containing beverages
• dementia
• diabetes
• difficulty swallowing
• heart disease
• history of brain tumor or head injury
• irregular heartbeat
• low blood pressure
• Parkinson's disease
• previous heart attack
• seizures (convulsions)
• an unusual reaction to aripiprazole, other medicines, foods, dyes, or preservatives
• pregnant or trying to get pregnant
• breast-feeding

...and I scored 105% (margin of error: 5.5%). Is that good?

$250, please. You can pay the laddy at the secret entrance to the escape tunnel that NekoChan adamantly refuses to use.

I'm gonna hold Neko's hand and wait too. Remember, if you have to sacrifice anything (provisions, people) to get the Zany Carter Deluxes back here, it's worth it.

Are they like those super-strong magnets you find in hard drives which you shouldn't pull apart because the platters splinter and little shards of glass/metal go into your fingers which you later rub into your eyes and you'd have thought I would have learnt after the first three times wouldn't you but no the temptation to get those heavy duty magnets was too great and did you know if you apply a strong enough magnet field to parts of your brain you can effectively and selectively disable those centres like speech or writing for exmplllllaggggrrllllllaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaa....

I took his prescription down to the local CVS and they said I should come back when I had a real prescription. For some unknown reason they had a problem with it being written in crayon.

Oh...right...so I probably shouldn't take them this stool sample as well then, right?

Cheers,

I've heard of people excreting rectangular building blocks, but this is the first time I've heard of it happening with a teak carver.

Don't you have a compost heap or something?

No, but I can do you a dining setting if I get myself enough fibre in my diet.

That's not a wig... it's my chia hair.
