I'll be posting some of the better (well, better relative to my photography skills...) photos of my Europe trip in coming posts. Hope that you'll like them :)
A physicist was pulled over by a police officer. The police officer asked
"Do you know that you just ran a red light?"
"No. It appeared to be a green light to me. Maybe I was driving a bit too fast."
"Alright sir", said the officer with a grin on his face. "I'll have to give you a speeding ticket then since you must have been driving at around, hmmmm, 110,000,000 mph. With an extra penalty of $5 per mph over 60 mph, it's just a fine of 550 million dollars."
"Ehhh... Actually, I think I ran a red light."
P.S. Created based on a question in my college physics textbook :)
Two years ago, I wrote about how Google Maps instructs you to swim across the Atlantic Ocean when you search for directions between Los Angeles and Paris. Apparently, Google Maps has been improved by the Google engineers since then: I just search for directions between Los Angeles and Tokyo and it tells me to kayak across the Pacific Ocean:
For some reason, Google Maps thinks that I should travel to Seattle first before throwing myself into the kayak. Maybe kayaking is prohibited on the beaches of Los Angeles? (-.-)
Not only is kayaking "less tiring" than swimming but Google Maps is thoughtful enough to advise me to visit Hawaii on the way. I can have a good rest (anyone needs a rest after 2756 miles of kayaking) and some fun there!
And, after another 3879 miles of kayaking, we're finally entering Japan. Do I need to show my passport if I land this way? :)
For some reason, it can't find directions between Los Angeles and Paris now
Maybe the Atlantic Ocean isn't that safe to swim across now? :P
I always believe that violence is never a solution when there're conflicts among people, races, religions or countries. Yet, quite a lot of people in this world resort to violence and it only fosters hatred among people generation after generation (I've been hearing about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict since I was a kid).
Although I believe that many people share my view on this issue, I was moved when I heard that Obama expressed the same opinion.
It's one thing to believe in something. It's another thing when the commander-in-chief also shares the same belief.
As capable as the citizens of a country are, people need a leader to lead the country in the right direction; Obama is doing that now.
In an old post I conservatively claimed that Obama is the right choice because he has a smaller chance of screwing up compared to McCain/Palin. Now, I start to believe that he really is the right choice as the President of the United States, which is a role that has tremendous impact not only in America but the entire world.
President Obama, thank you for being very hard-working. Thank you for making the government alotmoretransparent. Thank you for including capable people in your administration regardless of their races, backgrounds and political parties. And, last but not least, thank you for making an effort to lead us to a more peaceful world.
Please stay healthy and don't tire yourself out (play some basketball regularly!) . May God bless you :)
You gotta cover enough
I really like silhouette shots :)
