AQUA FORTIS.

Well, well. We have historical/hysterical news from an unnamed source. Okay fine it was mother.

Papa joined karate again in a valiant attempt to keep fit once again since his gym membership at California Fitness expired, and lose the extra kilograms gained after pigging out with everyone else at the glorious crab, xiaolongbao, leg of lamb etc feasts the family at home keep seem to be having nowadays. Things didnt go very smoothly apparently, since he broke his second toe in an overzealous kick on the first day. The upside is that he was MC for one week. =) Cheer up Doo!

If you're as ignorant about the alchemists as i am, you wouldnt know the cool names they called acids and bases in the past. Sulfuric acid was Oil of Vitrol, nitric acid was Aqua Fortis, ammonia was Spirits of Hartshorn. How cool please. Sounds like liquer ah... Or a sorcerer's potion.
"Drink this! Aqua Fortis! It will make you old and wise, like uhm the sea! You will grow an aqua coloured beard and purple fingernails! You will also gain the ability to thread water if you did not possess the skill! Hahahaha! A powerful potion this is! Drink!" Glug glug.

Okay time to do work.
