The Things We Take For Granted

every now in then i'm amazed by cars... everyone has one - its either just transportation, a practical tool and a means to carry stuff, or a nascar lovin rednecks favorite toy - pride and joy ..


but once in a while i marvel at the thought that i'm basically sitting in a comfy chair, tearing down a highway at 100 miles an hour ... my feet less then a foot away from the pavement.

how bizarre and cool would that look if we could do that in regular chairs..

is it just me or isnt it weird when you actually think about it - sitting on your ass - mere inches above pavement thats tearing along at an incredible and dangerous speed. just a chair, a platform and some wheels keeping you alive.

compute harddrives is another thing that i'm fascinated with ... i know how they work - i just cant believe it's possible.


same with records and recordplayers for that matter - how that weird little groove can repeat high fidelity music so perfectly.

i guess i'm digging the technology today.
I know it's the root of all evil some would say .. but i'm loving it..
