When Alexander Bell invented the telephone he had 3 missed calls from Skyblue.

Fear of spiders is aracnaphobia, fear of tight spaces is chlaustraphobia, fear of Skyblue is called Logic

Skyblue doesn't call the wrong number. You answer the wrong phone.

Ghosts sit around the campfire and tell Skyblue stories.

Skyblue has a grizzly bear carpet in his room. The bear isn't dead it is just afriad to move.

There used to be a street named after Skyblue, but it was changed because nobody crosses Skyblue and lives.

Skyblue died 20 years ago, Death just hasn't built up the courage to tell him yet.

If you rate this 5 roundhouse kicks, then Skyblue WILL roundhouse kick Justin Bieber's ***.

Skyblue has already been to Mars; that's why there are no signs of life.

Once the cop pulled over Skyblue....the cop was lucky to leave with a warning.

Some magicans can walk on water, Skyblue can swim through land.

Skyblue can cut through a hot knife with butter

Skyblue doesn't flush the toilet, he scares the sh*t out of it

Skyblue is the reason why Waldo is hiding.

Dont be sad xxx

I want to be loved too.

There is no cure for cancer, but Skyblue can roundhouse kick it back into remission.

The sun doesn't actually set. It merely hides from Skyblue half of the time.

If you can see Skyblue, he can see you. If you can't see Skyblue you may be only seconds away from death.

Skyblue does not hunt because the word hunting infers the probability of failure. Skyblue goes killing.

They once made a Skyblue toilet paper, but it wouldn't take sh*t from anybody.


This is fun, though Sky is probs gonna kill us!

Wow, I have a hangover.
What did we get up to last night?

Grr...It appears as  though I am going to have customs and excise problems again.

Got a phonecall from a shipping company, relayed to me via a family member, seeing as how I was asleep at the time. I have to email them..don't know the details. Apparently they are kicking off because there is no invoice with my package. Not even sure whats in it for certain.

I think its the labware set that I bought just recently. Its either that, or the gram of 1-benzoylpiperazine (not to be confused with the crappy stimulant drug 1-benzYL piperazine) that I ordered...but I think its the former, and that I need to contact the british division of the chemical company for the latter for some R&D work that is begging to hurry up and be done. I just can't wait for this project to come to fruition. I've been looking for a supplier of N-protected piperazines, but have had no luck until just the other day. I HAVE piperazine itself, as the phosphate salt, and the appropriate acyl chlorides to produce the DM-235 that I am after, but buying N-benzoyl piperazine, or N-propionylpiperazine (I have both acyl halides so I could do it either way around, although I imagine possibly benzoylation first may give better yields if I did it from scratch)

Buying N-benzoylpiperazine however saves so much time spent in otherwise tedious workup and buying the TLC plates that I don't have the money for right now. $19 a gram isn't too much, considering the dose of the final product is almost certain, given rat data, to be in the 10s to 100 micrograms per kilo of body weight range. I will be doing some from scratch, starting with just piperazine itself, to produce larger quantities, but the thing is...its a nootropic of the AMPAkine flavour, and I need some pretty bad memory and also cognitive issues to fix, and this project is for doing exactly that


Chances are though that its the labware set. I already have plenty of equipment, but I can always use an upgrade. Picked it up off ebay as a complete set with all the basics for vacuum distillation and average reactions. Intended I think, for someone just starting off in chemistry, but everything in it is useful. Especially the two and three-necked flasks. And a spare liebig condenser. Already have one liebig, but I can always use a spare, in case I drop the other. This one may be longer than the one I already have, and thus more efficient for reflux. All in 24/40 size, which is the size of ground glass joints that I have most of my labware in.

I just checked, and the one in the set I picked up is actually shorter. My liebig condenser is 250mm, and the one coming is 200. Still, should I break the condenser, I'll have a spare..(or more likely someone else who moves a project in progress, who isn't used to handling glassware, or my mother, who has MS, are more likely to break any of my glass)

I have to email the shipping company though, or possibly the postal services over this side of the pond, they are bitching about there being no invoice, as the seller is one of those that does their best to minimize the chance of their buyers getting their goods held hostage. And I have to find the contact details and tracking number first...gahh.....still cleaning this place up after that damn raid. I just hope I don't end up getting charged VAT, or any other ransom fees by those customs and excise arsewipes. Those gits have a pretty high up place on my little list of pet hates.

What a dishonorable line of employment. Stealing from people, or taking newly bought items and demanding money for something they never bought or in the seller's case, earned in the first place. IMO customs&excise men are little better than the highwaymen of old. Only its gone from 'your money, or your life', from a greedy slimeball on horseback to the slightly more civilized 'your money, or the items we stole while they were being delivered' from an avaricious git with a desk job and a uniform. Personally I'd prefer the highwaymen. As at least then one gets to see who is trying to get their sticky fingers in one's wallet and whip out the blunderbuss, to either persuade the robbing sod to sling their hook and piss off elsewhere, or fill the dog-born bloodsucking parasite full of broken glass and buckshot in defense of one's property; and not to mention, one's self-made livelihood in the making

Its all very well having people watching to make sure people don't get trafficked and brought into the country illegally for use virtually as slaves, and to prevent people mailing pathogens or letterbombs, but stealing other people's property is not on. We don't want shipping companies, or royal mail to facilitate terrorists doing their dirty work, but we don't need modern day pirates either.
