Getting warmer, but it's not quite that simple. The uploads are restricted to 1 Mb, so it doesn't show as much detail. I can click on the image and it's enlarged to the max, from my end. I don't know if you can or not. Peace, OHD I just clicked on it and it enlarged quite a bit. I still don't know what it can be though! Now it looks like a drop of something? Here is a cropped, close-up. Click for closer look. I left a sip or two of tomato juice out in a disposable plastic cup. When I noticed a couple of days later, it had this white "mold" on the top. Peace, OHD

That was a good one, OHD. I wonder what the mold is?

Right, I see it now! That was a good one, OHD. I wonder what the mold is? Something like penicillin I expect. This is penicillin mould apparently. sorry the picture is so big. I guess if you have a sore throat or whatever you could heat a mouldy orange as a cure (but I'd rather not try!!)

ok
what is it Well it is human hair under a microscope of course 4chsmu1, I know that because first time I tried I saw the URL not the picture, ie http://all-that-is-interesting.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/under-microscope-human-hair.jpg
Not sure why that was but it's a bit of a give away!

I would not eat it but apaprently the mould is found in cheeses so some people do eat it

Right, I see it now! That was a good one, OHD. I wonder what the mold is? Thank you, not sure deyana. It's kind of pretty and complex, when you click and enlarge. I was surprised to see it form so quickly on something so low on the 0-14 PH scale. Pretty acidic! Actually it was V-8. It may be a little more alkaline. Peace, OHD

V8 has a lot of stuff in it, including of course, tomatoes. Recently my fridge broke down and I was surprised at just how quickly everything was going 'off'. And this was not even in warm weather. How on earth did they ever manage in the days when there were no such things as refrigerators? 306

How on earth did they ever manage in the days when there were no such things as refrigerators? 306 Oh NO! I'm embarrassed! Haha .. We only had an "icebox" until I was 10 years old. That's when rural electric service finally reached us, when I was a lad on the farm in southwestern Oklahoma. It was a hefty, insulated wooden cabinet, with two compartments, upper and lower. The top compartment held a large block of ice, delivered by the "ice-man," and the lower compartment was the cooling space for perishables. Since heat rises, the cooler air given off by the ice-block fell, keeping the goods nice and cool until the ice melted, but not as cool as an electric refrigerator, which is a nice 40 degrees on average. We finally bought one, a used Frigidaire, with a small freezer compartment in 1957, hence the nickname we still commonly use,"fridge," as that brand was most popular. Other 'firsts' were Kelvinator, General Electric, and Westinghouse refrigerator/freezers, with the child hazard, locking door handles! Occasionally a child would crawl into an old one at the junkyard or dump, locking himself in, thus suffocating. That's why they all close with magnetized door gaskets now. In the days before that, folks just had to pickle, can, cure, smoke, and otherwise preserve. We did a lot of that, as well. There was no way to keep anything icy cold, except in Winter! gigglesmile Peace, OHD

Need help on this one. Very tough. Is it from Europe? From the 1800s?

And each time I am surprised at the similarities to how India still is in some areas. Many people do have fridges now, but many still do not. Was it a really hard life back then for folk? Or do you have just good memories of that time?

I probably would not have got it my self. I expect most people have used one at some time, maybe at school or in an office, or perhaps at home.

Is it one of those roller thingys that you use to stick stamps with. Roll it and then slide the stamp over it instead of licking it?
