NEW ELEMENT ADDED TO THE PERIODIC TABLE: ADMINISTRATIUM

Investigators at a major research institution have recently discovered the heaviest element known to science. This startling new discovery has been tentatively named Administratium (Ad).

This new element has no protons or electrons, thus having the atomic weight of 0. It does, however, have 1 neutron, 125 assistant neutrons, 75 vice neutrons and 111 assistant vice neutrons, giving it an atomic mass of 312.

These 312 particles are held together by a force called morons, which are surrounded by vast quantities of lepton-like particles called peons.
Since it has no electrons, Administratium is inert. However, it can be detected as it impedes every reaction with which it comes into contact.
According to the discoverers, a minute amount of Administratium causes one reaction to take over four days to complete when it would normally take less than a second.

Administratium has a normal half-life of approximately three years; it does not decay but instead undergoes a reorganization in which a portion of the assistant neutrons, vice neutrons and assistant vice neutrons exchange places.

In fact, an Administratium sample's mass will actually increase over time since, with each reorganization, some of the morons inevitably become neutrons, forming new isodopes.

This characteristic of moron promotion leads some scientists to speculate that Administratium is formed whenever morons reach a certain quantity in concentration. this hypothetical quantity is referred to as the "Critical Morass".

Having to tidy up living room as having some work done tomorrow. Noving some books off the floor I disturbed a HUGE (native) queen hornet, which scrambled under the bookcase. Well I googled (as you do) and it is not a good hibernation spot (not just not for me). I am recommended to carefully/gently remove her to somewhere more suitable. The last bit caused the laugh.

Well, the US-brand of cough syrup called "Vick" decided to sell it as "Wick" in Germany, they've got a reason...

And the Rolls Royce "Silver Mist" was sold as "Silver Shadow" in Germany, they also had a reason for that... :-)

This caused me to look up different uses of the word "spunk" in varieties of English. (one seems to be semen :o ) For me, I've never known spunk as anything but unbridled determination, but alas, I am once again confronted with the cultures separated by a common language reminder. :lol: I learn SO much on TT.

OTOH, sperm is pretty full of unbridled determination.
