Questione the firste:
The standard big breakfast, as I understand it, is orange juice and cereal, and then coffee or tea with bacon and eggs and/or toast. Now, I know that lemon juice curdles milk. I'm assuming that orange juice therefore does the same. Why then does orange juice go with cereal, which has milk on it? I'm sure it all ends up curdling in the stomach or something.
Questione the seconde:
Viruses and muscle ache. My mum has a virus at the moment, and she says it all started with her neck aching. She also said that way back before I was born, she had a virus that made her ache all over. Yesterday I had a sore neck, and this morning I have a sore throat, so perhaps she is right that the neck was a symptom of the virus. My question is: how can a _virus_ cause something like muscle strain? I always though muscle strain and ache was only caused by over-zealous exercising and sleeping in funny positions. A virus? Doing that? I'm afraid I won't understand until somebody explains it.
