Thoughts.

As I was clicking various links from ESPN, reading about Major League teams other than beloved New York Mets, who - despite my love for them - are a disgrace, I came across one of those annoying ads that pop up in the same window as your intended content so they don't get picked up by pop-up blockers and I had a thought: does anyone ever not click "skip this ad?" (Holy crap, that was a long sentence. Go me!) Seriously, who sits there when they click on some interesting link or another and thinks "Wow, let me delay my internet browsing pleasure for 30 useless seconds and check out this totally pointless ad!" ? (Argh... Despite my extensive knowledge of the English language, I never know how to a end a sentence in that situation, where you have a quote ending the sentence but the actual sentence itself is a question but the punctuation mark of the quote is not supposed to be a question mark. Any insight? Kaz, Ben Marquardt, any thoughts?) Anyway... a little before I had that eye-opening thought that would, quite frankly, be really funny if it was told in angry voice as a stand-up joke from Louis CK, I had another thought while on the toilet. Yes, I do some of my best thinking on the john. I've written many a heart-wrenching song lyric in the confines of those pretty tiled rooms with the giant tubs and rusty sinks! That's not the point, however. The point is, as I was sitting on the toilet and reading the most recent Artemis Fowl book, which I have almost finished reading, a thought burst in my head, one which, now that I look back on it, may have largely been inspired from Family Guy. I was thinking that if the military ever invented a stealth-vehicle that can actually become invisible, wouldn't it suck because that would make everything on the inside visible? So in reality invisible cars or planes are completely unrealistic. Not only that, but if someone's piloting an invisible plane towards an enemy it would still be completely useless because it would show up on radar.... unless of course the plane is flying below the radar's range. But even so, then, because of the height it's flying at, everyone and everything inside would be visible to civilians on the ground. Flying couches and people sitting in the sky and moving at a ridiculous speed! (That last sentence begs the question: why would a military stealth craft have a couch inside?... But who cares?) You all get the point, I hope. I don't know if I don't understand the Theory of Invisibility, or if such a theory even exists, but my musings have merit! Oh, and in case you're wondering, below is the Family Guy from which I very likely may have plagiarized my thoughts... but, like I said, it only occurred to me afterward that they made a similar point, albeit in far less words and a lot funnier. (Take note that their joke is also toilet-related... coincidence? I think not.) Enjoy.
