Sanka..... sorry my mind is
with this....

You definitely get credit for that. However, the answers I was looking for were Aspirin and Heroin from Bayer.

I'll continue with the aspirin, since it's still legal. In the US and the allied countries, brand Aspirin became the generic name (ie chemical name). In non-allied countries, Bayer kept the rights to brand name Aspirin, and the chemical name of acetylsalicylic acid was the "drug name" (like Tylenol and acetaminophen).

Here's the current photos of two of the same products sold by Walmart. One is the Canadian version, you'll notice Aspirin is the brand name of acetylsalicylic acid, and the american version, simply known as Aspirin.

American:

Canadian, note capitalized Aspirin and the notation that it's acetylsalicylic acid.

Went for another 4 mile walk with the dog today. People are starting to come back now that it's "Spring" and there were so many people out today. I met quite a few of them, spent an hour talking to one old guy while our dogs played.

Maine, the way life should be.

One of my boys asked me where I would move to......answer flew out: Maine

Good afternoon all. Hope everyone is enjoying a wonderful Easter.

Here is the view outside 5 minutes ago from our back porch.

Isn't Mother Nature a riot? There are two pairs of Blue Birds nesting in my little condo. I haven't seen their little heads poke out all day since it started snowing....but then neither has mine! My pussy willows one either side are just starting to bud. Here's the funny part. They are calling for thunderstorms on Wednesday. Spring. What a concept!

I'm off to check that the chickens aren't being stupider than usual and standing out in the snow. Then making dinner rolls.

Y'all stay warm, cool, or comfortable which your weather where you are demands.

And have a Happy Easter!

I had two brain dead roosters standing out in the snow. There is about 3-4 inches so far and still coming down. One was sitting on their outside roost the other was the bantam I moved over to that pen last night standing gazing longingly at his old run. He was up to his vent in snow, little idiot. I picked him up, cleaned the snow off his feet and stuffed him in my coat to thaw him out. Once he was warm I put him in the coop, turned around and he was right back in the snow gazing at the run. Guess he figured it was better to be beat up then be an outcast so I put him back with the bantam flock and told him not to get too damaged, we'd just got his eye healed up from the last free for all.

White Easter. I love it. I'm dreaming of a white Easter, just like the ones I used to know where the snow flakes glisten and people listen to hear Easter Bunnies floundering in the snow.....
