Chupar is the verb 'to suck', as a lollipop. Adding 'dero' makes it 'one who does whatever the verb is'. Here, one who sucks or a sucker. However, follow the link above and you arrive at what must be slang usage. |

this particular sample doesn't appear etched. I wonder if it is this way to show the separate metals? I like it. Note: the large mass pictures on the MetBul site are impressive. |

"secret military prison"? It's the common name of several species of weeds, and it's a village in New Mexico too, probably named after the weeds. ;)) ...But the meteorite is interesting. Is that a big blob of troilite in the middle? |
