yamamanamaSince the video about radiology is old school (I swear they use sieverts now), I showed some people the results of messing around with photographs and blue stuff and drawings of Ozzy Osbourne on acetate, or whatever transparent substance he is drawn on.
Paige thought the blue one was digital, Jessica or Sarah or Caitlin, whomever, thought this one looked like ink. Or it might have been Skyla. In fact, I think it was Skyla. I think it would be Paige, since she seems to know her shit about art, but it wasn't…. I don't even know, okay.
I might have some others not scanned in. I don't know if I still have the original Ozzy acetate sheet.
Röntgen called the thing x-rays. And Lord Kelvin thought they were fake images, like ectoplasm (the manifested substance left behind by psychic phenomena, not the outer cytoplasm or shockwave condensation). There's no material that focuses it so you just have to block it or something.
Back in the old days, you had to dip the film and be careful not to leave it in too long or else the chemicals will dissolve the film.
Now you just use computers. Or, like the Wildlife Center did when we started, we had a machine for developing x-ray sheets.
Ultrasounds are what we use to look at unborn without sending a barrage of lethal radiation at them.
X-ray specs are really just glasses with hand bones printed on them.
Sarcoptic mange mites look like octoroks.
That cat was back. Well, she (?) was there when I arrived but when Jess went outside, she didn't see it.
Let it be said that radiation sickness is not fun.
The control badges won't be zero, because even an ordinary banana will emit about 100 nanosieverts of radiation. A sievert will probably cause death.
I know I should read more Richard Paul Russo but I'm wondering if I should read Richard Russo.
now I want to watch that Angry Beavers episode with the x-ray specs.
This is the second part of Chris's bee RPG questions. And my answer is "a cacophony of bee noises, apian instrumentation, and industrial noise, that would gradually build up in intensity. It would start of as a simple buzzing, some flugelhorns and trumpets and violins would come in, and then clinking and clanking, and machine noise.
Burning question: What sort of musical theme would you give to the battle? Extra credit will be awarded for multi-part theme/fight scenarios.
