This site was mainly made out of a random whim, well that and I needed a
grade for a website in
my computer class... he-he. Nonetheless, I hope to get this little site
moving up into bigger things,
my webcomic, definitely a priority of this site and then there's the "purpose"
of the site.
This website's main purpose is to encourage me to research many things, for
example, I bet you
didn't know that "epistaxis" is just another word for nose bleed! Yeah, in fact,
this site was
originally going to be about nothing but nose bleeds... but then I realized that
was kind of dumb,
nonetheless, I will probably be putting some interesting info on nosebleeds once
I start updating
this here site more often, hopefully it's up, I've had to take it down from
geocities already once
because the bandwidth was barely enough to keep it up there for a day...
Now to what my plans for the site are, every Thursday I will start research
on a small but interesting
or unusual subject, be it the supposedly unlucky Aye-aye, or human sudden
combustion, I don't
promise to answer answers that not even fully trained scientists can, I just
hope I can collect
enough information to make someone who reads it go "wow, I didn't know that
about iguanas"
or something like that.

In case of a nosebleed:
1. Pinch all the soft parts of the nose between your thumb and the side of your
index finger.
2. Press firmly but gently with your thumb and the side of your index finger
toward the face,
compressing the pinched parts of the nose against the bones of the face.
3. Hold that position for a full five minutes by the clock.
4. Keep head higher than the level of the heart. Sit up or lie back a little with the head elevated.
5. Apply ice - crushed in a plastic bag or washcloth - to nose and cheeks.
