Tattoo Evolution

So it's with some trepidation that I share this one thought that comes to mind when I look at a 3D tattoo. Evolution!! What if it could be made to animate on your skin? :)

RATE YOUR EMOTIONAL WELLBEING

Organisations use IQ tests and other like tests as a means to assess candidates' suitability for a job. Why don't social matchmaking services use this technique to rate a person's emotional wellbeing and their suitability for a healthy relationship. It can be an option and if the other person is hesitant to take the test, that could already be an indication that they have something to hide. The other person who wants to find out doesn't have to be an expert in the field either, as they can just be given a summary on whether this person is reliable, genuine and suited to their needs. Current matchmaking tests, I assume, just judge suitability by comparing interests, hobbies etc. Better to have a more in-depth psychological analysis to determine true compatibility.

Marry in Heaven

Sort of. Since for most people Heaven is imagined as a place to be found somewhere up in the sky, I suggest we solemnly pause and give some thought to the idea of organizing wedding ceremonies up in the sky. Skydiving priests, a nicely decorated plane with large windows and a few weeks of skydiving training for the couple and guests to replace months of wed planning on the ground. Before the vows are given and the couple's ready to kiss, the door opens and everyone goes out the door. When the priest says, 'And now I pronounce you husband and wife', the parachute opens and the groom may kiss the bride all the way to the ground...

Untitled = Default Title

Generally, an untitled work is the result of a conscious choice by the artist or creator not to apply a title. If the artist is sincere about the choice of leaving the work without a title, then the title should be left blank. Filling it up with the word 'Untitled' makes it titled. If you leave it blank, can't I see there is no title? Why do you have to explain it to me? Just a thought!

Athens metro cheat

If you've been to Athens and used the metro you must have noticed that entry to the station requires ticket validation but unlike London or New York where entry requires the opening of gates to pass through, there is no such thing in Athens. The ticket is valid for 1.5 hours and the price is same for all destinations which makes the ticket transferable. If you see a ticket left around on the validation machine, it's probably because someone left it there to be used by someone else. Next time you're in Athens and use the metro, check to see if there is a ticket on the validation machine before buying a new one.

The measure of wealth

Measure wealth not by the things you have but by the things you have for which you would not take money.

So how wealthy are you today?
