Podcasting Streak!

I've recently been going crazy over podcasts {therefore I am not blogging. I don't plan to apologize anytime soon, either.} Did ya miss me? Of course not, non-existent people don't have feelings, whoops I forgot. {whacks myself on the head*} :] So, some of my awesome selections for those podcasts have been: NPR podcasts {news, poetry, health, science, enviroment}, NG {news}, Discovery {news}, NYT {news}, podcasts involvinhg learning new languages, and many others I have all downloaded but not listened to yet. {I think that as of now there's been around... 1000 new podcasts! Been downloading too much..} So, now that I'm kind of out of that phase, I have to come back to add more nonsense to my ever-growing cache. So... I'm off! Yes, I absolutely agree how pointless this post was. Happy podcasting! {No, I don't have a podcast, and I will not make one seeing how absurd my voice sounds.} :)

How It's Made

I was watching How It's Made on Discovery Channel one day, and the WEIRDEST thing went on the show. [dun dun dun...*] They started to talk about how to make an ARTIFICIAL eye. Yep, thats right, artificial eye. So, the process was mostly creating the colors. The iris had to be manually DRAWN on the "eye", [ i missed the part in the beginning about what the actual white thing is] and then placed into the patient's eye socket place thingy. Well, the drawing part was kinda cool [i think it was acrylic paint..?]. But i really got freaked out when they inserted it into the patient's eye socket. It was.. creepy. They even have some sort of coating that gets buffed so it becomes all shiny and looks like its wet. O_o So, if you're ever missing an eye, just go to someplace where they make artificial eyes! Well of course, no offense to people who do have artificial eyes, i am in no way creeped out by that, just by the process of making the artificial eyes. I mean, How It's Made is always elaborating on these things... It gets cool once in a while, watching all those machines at work. So far my favorite episode was the one where they talked about how to make toilet paper. ^^ Did you know the paper pulp is first bleached? Well, the paper is actually recycled paper turned into pulp, then bleached for safety precautions, but of course the bleach is safe. [I have no idea how though.] So, then they press it into paper and make it dry, then roll it onto rolls and cut those rolls to manufacturing size. It's SO amazing how those robots are so efficent. Where do they find the space to put those things? Well anyways, im surprised i even remember that [it was a while ago]. My memory cells are tired, so off to Animal Crossing i go! [Grabs Ralph*] Ralph, you're coming too. :)

[Pulls Hair Out Of Head*]

GAH! Adjectives are driving me crazy. Not enough of them for my project! Especially for the fact that they have to be in a foreign language, and that i have VERY limited vocabulary. Ugh, so hasslesome... I was basically watching tv with Ralph the whole day, [well not the WHOLE DAY...] and ive seen some interesting things on Discovery channel... They seriously have COOL stuff on there. Like "How It's Made", and "MythBusters". Its educational, AND interesting at the same time. Amazing huh? :) Everybody get me Toblerone for Christmas! [cough*] But of course, dont expect anything from me. :) [Goes into hibernation to protect myself during Christmas season*] WARN ME WHEN IT'S OVER!
