What’s Culver’s?

Culvers is a popular somewhat fast food chain in the upper Midwest. Known for their Butterburgers and custard.

Culver's has expanded out West. We've had a Culver's in Prescott Valley for the last few years now.

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."

-- C.S. Lewis

Waaaaay back when, when I was selling on eBay, I couldn't make bismuth pieces fast enough! People were crazy over them. I really like it. It's cool stuff. Bismuth has some interesting properties. Most of what you see is made in a lab.

You can make your own bismuth crystals if you're inclined. I actually bought some bismuth a few years ago and was going to try it, but it's still sitting here untouched. My interest is peaked again, so thanks Beth and Tela! Here's a video on how to do it. It's actually very simple. Lots of videos on YouTube on making these crystals.
