Nutmeg and mace are different parts of the same nut.

Bumpity bump

A Fox News story this week reported that teenagers are ingesting and snorting nutmeg to produce a “marijuana-like buzz” and hallucinations





I have known people who also smoked it. Crazy...

Have people been insane enough to inject themselves with nutmeg to get high?

Aparently the stuff is much more toxic when injected than when ingested.

Nutmeg is extremely toxic when injected intravenously.

Your turn, John.

The Boston tea party is not quite about what most modern Americans believe it is about. What was the real problem?

Still is the real problem.
Vote, my fellow patriots.
I won't tell you the obvious choice, but damn you....
At least cast a vote this coming fall.

Of course it was Uli.

The Boston Tea Party was a political protest by the Sons of Liberty in Boston, a city in the British colony of Massachusetts, against the tax policy of the British government and the East India Company that controlled all the tea imported into the colonies. On December 16, 1773, after officials in Boston refused to return three shiploads of taxed tea to Britain, a group of colonists boarded the ships and destroyed the tea by throwing it into Boston Harbor. The incident remains an iconic event of American history, and other political protests often refer to it.



Not quite.
