Girus

 I'm sorry to disappear again, but, unfortunately, I apparently have carpal tunnel and I've got one hand that hurts if I move it too much, and one that goes numb after a paragraph or two of typing. This is ultimately very annoying and distracting. It also makes things a little less interesting to tell you about things when I know I'm going to be trying to figure out how to ice my wrist again, with one numb hand and a wrist that I need to keep straight, and I'm just really annoyed at my hands right now. I never gave them permission to have problems like this. 

Since I am mad at myself for some health problems, I'll let you in on a rather hilarious scientific term I found out about a while ago. 

Girus. 

This is a term used for viruses with a lot of DNA in them. All viruses have DNA in them, but some of them have rather simple DNA, versus these, which have a lot of DNA in them, 

It literally comes from shortening 'Giant Virus'. It's hilarious to me. 

Let's hope we don't have to worry about one of those coming up soon. Covid was bad enough. 

I'd list sources here, but...well, if you google Girus Virus, it'll tell you all about them. Just be careful, because gyrus is a term for folds in the brain also, so try not to get them mixed up.

Have fun. Hopefully, I'll be back soon. Unfortunately, I can't promise anything.
