An electric razor that shaves close to the bone! This x-ray, featured at Modern Mechanix, was taken in 1941, back when x-ray scientists and technicians didn't bother wearing lead aprons and spent their spare time coming up weird things they could x-ray. Link -via J-Walk Blog

It's been twenty years or so since I read that book; amazing, how quickly it comes back.
They were under a curse of invisibility.
Well it's about time to pick it up again. Or better yet the whole series. There is much in the Chronicles that is written for adults; I've read the whole series a number of times (each of the books can be finished on a Sunday afternoon) and something new hits me every time.
