Silver Crazy
What to do about these silver nitrate stains?

Okay so in my chemistry class we were supposed to take silver nitrate and put it in a test tube dissolved in water and then put copper wire in the liquid. My teacher warned us that if we got silver nitrate on our hands that it would stain. I have little black dots all over my hands. It’s driving me crazy and I worry too much. Will the stains ever go away? And it’s safe to have it on my hands? I’m guessing so since our class was allowed to handle it.

Silver Nitrate “Burns” the top layer of the tissue. Scrub on in in a day or two, it will flake off.
I know this because I got a fellow co worker back for six years of practacle jokes. On his last day I had mixed up some powdered Silver Nitrate, put it on his keyboard keys and mouse. By the end of the day he had black marks all over his face where he had been picking his Nose, etc.
It’s pretty benign, and like I said in a day or two start scrubbing lightly.

Queen – Greatest Hits


$7.64


Queen brought a whole new meaning to the phrase over the top. While rock & roll flamboyance stretched back at least as far as Little Richard, Freddie Mercury continued to camp it up, taking little seriously and smirking at the music’s growing pretensions while partaking in them no small bit. Many of the band’s singles hold up extremely well, such as “Killer Queen” and “You’re My Best Friend”. The …

$5.62


With rootsier, acoustic neofolk ascendant, Marc Cohn’s 1991 debut harkens back to the more sophisticated rock and pop inflections of singer-songwriters of two decades past. His supple, velvety baritone and elegant piano-based arrangements frame shrewdly crafted songs ripe with pop touches, none more intricate or deftly executed than the set’s epochal “Walking In Memphis,” an epiphany rooted in ri…

I Remember You


I Remember You


$7.14


Soul crooner Brian Mcknight, the younger brother of Take 6′s Claude Mcknight, sings in a silky, seductive purr. He has a sweet, elastic tenor and a well-honed harmonic instinct that comes from being an accomplished keyboardist. Unfortunately, he rarely shifts gears, and remains stuck in that breathy, drawn-out crooning style for most of this album, I Remember You, the follow-up to his 1992 self-ti…

The promise of “One Hundred Beautiful Girls on Horseback” and a personal appearance by the Tommy Dorsey orchestra are among the enticements of this 1943 MGM musical, a typical installment in the Mickey Rooney/Judy Garland let’s-put-on-a-show genre. Not typical is the quality of the songbook, which trots out some sublime George and Ira Gershwin tunes: “Embraceable You,” “Fascinating Rhythm,” an…
