Micro Brew Pub I went to this local micro brew pub recently. I’d been kind of curious about it. I’m not much of a beer drinker, but a long time ago me and a friend used to make beer. So I was just kind of curious as this place had a few of their own […]
Persistence Inventing
Sweaty Humans One of the strange things that separates us humans from the rest of the primates is that we don’t have much body hair. We also sweat, which is something no other animal does. And we have arched feet. Surprisingly, these three traits allowed us to do something very useful in our very ancient […]
Born With Knowledge
Child Prodigies The other night I watched an interesting TV show about child prodigies they had all these kids that were 5,6,4 that could do all these really interesting things. The most interesting kid was this boy who was four years old. He can name all of the presidents in order. If you gave […]
Future Visions
Restaurant I’ve been going to this restaurant for a few months now, and I just noticed something about it that I hadn’t noticed before. It’s kind of strange when you do this.

She’s very nice, she’s very attractive, she’s intelligent but she has a habit of over sharing and she’s been seeing this therapist for about a year about a breakup that I think happened over a year ago.

Mental Portal Implantation
At The Bus Stop The other day I was waiting for the bus and just as the bus started coming up this guy started talking to me. The first thing he said was he let his license expire because he’s been busy. He kind of seemed to want me to ask him why and […]
Everything Is Hallucination
Our Memory Sucks It’s a very demonstrable fact that human memory is very very weak. We’ve all had experiences where somebody told us their name and we later forgot it even thought we wanted to remember it. We all have experiences being told what to study for a particular test in school. We studied but […]
