Fatherhood

To all the fathers and sons out there: treasure your time together…

Personal MTV

Will be going to a friend’s wedding tonight. Guess too late to suggest to them? But pretty neat, wouldn’t you say? 😉

Stopping

Obstacles can’t stop you. Problems can’t stop you. Most of all, other people can’t stop you. Only you can stop you.

A single step

As a single footstep will not make a path on the earth, so a single thought will not make a pathway in the mind. To make a deep physical path, we walk again and again. To make a deep mental path, we must think over and over the kind of thoughts we wish to dominate our lives.

Henry David Thoreau, 1817-1862
American Author, Poet and Naturalist

Laws of physics

Happened to see this bit of info on the Discovery Channel on Sunday which kind of got stuck in my head. The show was called “Time Warped” which consists of a crew going around different places to camera high-speed action using equally high-speed video cameras.

The last segment had a brief physics simulation of the male urination process, or simul-pee if you like…

The set-up consists of a filled water tank and a thin rubber tube which acts as the urinary tract. Now if the urinary tract is suspended in free space, once the, uhh, “tap” is opened, the flow as expected is consistent and on-target. Basically “the spot marked X” has a direct hit every time.
