Such A Cry Baby...

You're cutting up an onion for tonights dinner and you're crying like a baby. No matter how much you try and fight it you can't keep from crying. Don't feel too much like a baby because once you hear why you won't feel like such a wuss.

When you cut an onion you release the amino acid sulfoxides from the cells . Those mix with the sulfenic acids to produce propanethiol S-oxide, a volatile sulfur that mixes with the air and enters your eyes. This reacts with the water in your eyes to form sulfuric acid. The burning sulfuric acid causes tears that create more sulfuric acid.

My solution is I put a plastic bag over my head and pull down over my eyes. Other wise some ski goggles will work if you got them.

MUSE MUSE MUSE MUSE MUSE....

Since I am going to see MUSE for the 8th time I think today I figured I'd share a fun fact about my favorite band.

After coming up with their name Muse the band came up with the title for their first song "Muscle Museum" by looking up the word Muse in the dictionary and taking the first word to come before and after and combining them.

Lead singer/lead guitarist/and pianist Matthew Belamy, holds the world record for smashing the most guitars in a single tour. 140 of them in total for the Absolution tour.
