Arguing with a liberal is like playing chess with a pigeon. No matter how well you play chess, the pigeon just knocks over all the pieces, craps on the board, spews some unintelligible profanities, and struts around like he won."

Lewis and Clark expedition left a trail of heavy-metal laxatives.
Lewis and Clark’s men made their way across the continent and across Oregon, they were unknowingly depositing a trail of heavy metals along the way – a trail that historians and scientists have been able to detect and use to document almost their every movement, so to speak. the time of the American revolution, a substance called “calomel” was the laxative of choice.
This recipe for a milder version of Rush's Bilious Pills
comes from the National Formulary in 1945. This
image appears in the Lewis and Clark Fort Mandan
Foundation's Web site, at which there's a lot more
information about the ingredients in this compound.
Mercury was still being used as an internal medicine
in the 1960s and as a topical antiseptic (chiefly as
Mercurochrome) into the 1990s.
Calomel was the wonder drug of the age. In large doses, it functioned as a savage purgative, causing lengthy and productive sessions in the outhouse, guaranteeing the restoration of one’s bile balance. And in small doses, it was effective against the most dreaded “social disease” of the age, syphilis.
But take too much of it and your teeth would fall out, and you might die of mercury poisoning. Calomel’s modern scientific name is mercury chloride.

Whales milk is similar in constancy as toothpaste; it must be thick, or else it will dissipate into the surrounding water.
