Whole Foods I went into whole foods a few days ago. I don’t normally shop there. It’s kind of far and expensive. I was just curious and I was in the neighborhood. I was looking at all the chicken and I noticed they had different prices per pound. But I couldn’t see a clear […]
The Friendly Clock Lady
Looking For The Time I needed a clock, so I went to home depot. I wanted a big, analog clock to put on the wall. Something about a big analog clock up on the wall gives you a different perspective of time than a digital one on your device or in the lower corner of […]
Inter Mental Magic
Best Twenty Five Cents Ever I went to a local coffee shop a couple of weeks ago. I’d been downtown wandering around and I found this used book store. I like bookstores, especially used bookstores. In the movies these are always places you can find ancient books on magic. Like somehow the most powerful […]
Mind Reading Matrix Algorithm
Local JC Trip I went down to my local JC recently. I like taking classes at community colleges, usually on weekends, for a bunch of reasons. For one, I like to learn. I like places like libraries and bookstores where you can find a lot of information here. But learning in a classroom setting […]
Quantum Tunneling Through Pancakes

Serial Killer Hobby
Seize The Opportunity I recently bought this house under some pretty strange circumstances. The original owners, or the previous owners left it in foreclosure. Then this guy and his team bought it, with a bunch of others, and they were going to sell all of them to a big rental company. That’s apparently a […]
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 […]
Reversions To The Mean
Moving Averages Stock charts are a fascinating combination of technical and mathematical specificity and human psychology. One one hand they can be a very accurate representation of a company’s health. On the other hand, they are a pure expression of human psychology. One way to look at a chart is to compare the day […]
Specialty Coffee and the Speed of Light
Shared Molecules I remember the first chemistry class I took in college. It was in one of those big auditorium type classrooms. The professor comes in and the first thing he said was to close your eyes. To think about somebody you admire. They can be alive, they can be dead, but they have […]
