believe it or not:the 1K yr old seed grows

Yeah! It would! I hope that if I have kids, they like Lego too!

I loved building stuff with Lego's!

[npixelz]

I still love building stuff with Lego!

[Gingerale]

Npixelz, if you play lego's with your kids I am sure they will like lego's too.

[npixelz]

I hope so! Though first I guess I need to find someone who will eventually give me kids!

[Gingerale]

in the meantime you can play lego's with any nieces or nephews or cousins that come along.

[npixelz]

Yeah, I suppose. Or with the daughter of a family friend. She likes Lego's. ^^

[Lemon Cheesecake]

I've seen people have lego picture frames

[npixelz]

That would be cool! ^^

[Lemon Cheesecake]

There are actually quite a few cool things to do with lego's... I don't recall ever actually building a lego set...only building something of my own creation...how about you?

[npixelz]

I do both. I build the set, then after awhile I take it apart and use its pieces for something else.

I'm not good at following instructions...I'm better when someone shows me

Egyptian pregnancy test 3500 years ago:

https://www.cnn.com/2018/08/31/health/a ... knowledge/

"A papyrus from ancient Egypt instructs a woman to pee into a bag of barley and a bag of emmer (the variety of wheat cultivated by ancient Egyptians), according to a researcher at the University of Copenhagen, who is studying the document.
"If they grow, she will give birth. If the barley grows, it is a boy. If the emmer grows, it is a girl. If they do not grow, she will not give birth," reads the text, written in a hieratic script -- the ancient Egyptians' cursive form of Hieroglyphic writing -- and dated to the New Kingdom era, sometime between 1500 and 1300 BC."

..." the pregnancy testing method had longevity. "We find the same test in Greek and Roman medicine, in the Middle East during the Middle Ages, and European medical traditions," says Schiødt. The test appears as late as the 1699, in a book of German folklore."

Huh, that's cool. Did it actually work?

the article says the higher estrogen in the pregnant women's urine causes the seeds to sprout...otherwise it generally is not enough liquid to sprout so it was a fairly good indicator. But I am assuming once the women missed their first cycle that would be an indicator too.
