A few days ago on my walk I contemplated what it would be like if people could fly like superman. Well, like superman meaning no wings. Probably a speed of about 25 mph would be like an easy walk.
Would there be such a "global economy"? Because if 25 mph is an easy distance to fly, there might not be the need for such a big transportation infrastructure.
Would people be in better shape? You can fly farther faster than walking, so maybe. This might depend on the road system and if that is even an option.
How would movement of goods work? It seems like we would either need a clever thing to carry/pull around with us while we fly or...vehicles. Wow, it all comes back to vehicles and roads.

Tuesday: Spring is here again!
(Sigh, Rockband songs stuck in your head.)
Anyway, it was a beautiful day out today. I found an excuese to walk to the main building during the day so I could be outside a bit. Then there were some getting home troubles, so I walked to go get the car. However, my plan backfired a bit and when I was about 2/3 of the way to the car it started pouring out. Of course, I wasn't close to a building so I just kept walking. It was actually kind of fun.

Saturday: relaxing
Today we didn't do much. Ben seems to be feeling better, but still took it pretty easy today. We also started watching "Dexter" per Tan's recommendation. It's interesting. We watched two and will probably watch more, but it's still out for trial as it is a bit...gruesome.
Being the good cat owners that we are, we took more pictures of Flurry today. I'm sure you're all excited.

Friday: the house is (not) falling apart
So as I'm going to bed, I heard this eeererrppp. Hmm. That's a new sound. I ignore it. Five minutes later...eerrerrpp. Hmm. I take more note this time. I wonder what is broken, but also wonder if the furnace is just making new noises. The furnace turns off. Eeereeppp. Sigh, I should go make sure everything's ok in the basement. Phew, it is. Maybe it's the radon dectector fan. Well, I can't do anything about that. Eeerreerpp. It now sounds like it is coming from the drier. Interesting. Oh! It's my dumb pager. I think my pager has an alarm that goes off at random times. It is kind of driving me nuts.
