Mall Wind Turbines

Finally a wind turbine that isn't just for show and actually utilizes large buildings like malls and airports to create more flow.  I've mentioned before how stupid it is that companies will put on turbines on the sides of their buildings to seem environmentally friendly, but the turbines aren't really doing anything.  This turbine (Architectural Wind), shown here at the Maui Ocean Center in Hawaii, makes use of the accelerated air flow caused by wind being pushed up the sides of large walls.  I want to these more often.  Then, I might actually believe you are an environmentally conscious company.

Children Games

This man clearly never learnt how to play "stop hitting yourself".

Sharks

It is commonly known that sharks will eat anything, but I disagree. Just like every human, there has to be something sharks won't eat. For example, do you really think if you toss a cheeseburger into a shark tank that they'll just be like CHOMP and chow down on it.  I have my doubts.  Burgers might be eating, but I seriously doubt vegatables would get eaten.  Sharks may eat random junk but they obviously aren't as good trash cans as people think.  Otherwise, I would build a disposal drain in my table that leftovers get dumped through to a shark tank.

On a somewhat related note, if anyone has a pet shark or access to a shark, you should start a show like "Will It Blend?".  Each episode have a random object or item of food and see if the shark will eat it. I can personally say that I'd definitely watch that.

Highways

When you look at highways and really think about what you're looking at, it's kinda funny. It is like we've all been brainwashed to go places and we must drive inside the lanes at specified speeds. And every vehicle is doing the same thing. If you were driving at night with the highway empty, you would probably stay in your lane. What keeps us from just driving wherever we like? It doesn't seem like we are in control. We are not free to drive as we please, we are controlled by the government. Looking at streets in other countries such as Egypt or other middle Eastern countries, cars are all over the place with no organized lanes. So maybe some people would choose to stick to an imaginery lane, but if we had the freedom, we'd drive wherever it is convenient.  

Then I wonder if we all are going in the same general direction, at the same speed and are restricted to lanes, why bother driving ourselves? Some people must've figured this out and ride trains or subways. But why don't we have these systems everywhere or a human transport system of air tubes, like in Futurama. We buy cars, pay to be licensed, for gas, repairs, et cetera and we have to perform the function of driving ourselves. A robotic track system with individual pod cars would allow us to program in a location and relax until the car delivers us to our destination. It would almost completely eliminate accidents and some cars can park themselves now, so why not let them have entire control over driving? Let's be honest, driving is boring. At least highway driving from point A to B, racing and Sunday cruises have their own merits. So, really the only question left to ask is would you let governments raise tax to build some type of robotic system if it meant you didn't have to buy cars or pay for gas?

Time Travelling

Today I will be time travelling back to EST.  This gives me the opportunity to ask the question, is crossing time zones technically time travel?  If you are on the border of the Eastern and Central time zones and you jump from EST to CST, in less than 5 seconds you've gone back in time one hour.  Or if you happen to have a fighter jet, you can skip over many time zones and go back or forward several hours.  Is this really time travel?  You can watch a TV show at 8 PM and then the same episode again at 8PM if you rush from the Eastern time zone to the Pacific zone.  Obviously, you never actually travel through time looking at GMT or UTC.  I think this is kinda like "random" numbers.  Most random number generators just follow a massive pattern to appear random, these are actually only pseudo-random (random.org has a good explanation of this).  Time zone travel is not true time travel, but it is pseudo-time travel.  Well, I'm off to pseudo-time travel back to Ontario.

Re-Gifting

Are there limitations on what gifts can be re-gifted?  For example, birthday sex.  Can one re-gift this back to their partner at a later date?

"Honey, it's Friday (Friday), so I got you a present."
"Oh, what is it?"
"You know the sex you gave me for my birthday last week?  I decided to give it back to you."

Comment something else you can't re-gift below.

Ninja Scooter

How am I just hearing about this game now and why isn't there a Ninja Scooter franchise already?
