Like Ned, Pluto being demoted from planet status was the first thing that came to my mind. Poor Pluto. Imagine being called a full-sized planet for 76 years, then one day...WHAM. Demoted to dwarf planet. Rude. The only consolation is that August 26th is now Pluto Demoted Day. Or does that add insult to injury? I remember that in my medical training that the teacher taught us LDL and HDL (bad and good cholesterol) backwards. I struggled with that for the longest time. That was pretty awkward considering how many patients I have had to talk to about their cholesterol results over the years... In Junior High, I guess it was a Home Economics class, we did a unit on personal care. I memorized that warm water stimulated oil in your scalp, and cool water did not. I was very excited about this because I have always struggled with oily hair. Finally, something I can do to help! The questions about the water temperature came up on a test and I answers them with confidence...and I got them both wrong. Now I was completely confused and a more than a little butt hurt about the whole thing (remember, I was 11 or 12 years old at the time). I never did clarify this with the teacher and I still wonder about it periodically as I shower these 50 years later, LOL I can't be arsed to research it and see if it makes even a bit of difference. I rather suspect it does not.  |
