Why do girls float

Because they're boyn't

The unhappiness on the horizon would soon be unavoidable.

Her warrior told her to bring their wagon to the battlefield when it was all over. Once the ravens and crows darkened the midday sun. Dress warm, wear gloves and burn strong incense; the stronger the better.

She simply nodded. These were not new instructions.

She knew her warrior was strong, and swift and brave.

And she also knew that often that isn't enough to come home unaided.

Shucks! Of course it should have said "Hello Homeworld" :(

Sooo… that alien alphabet thingy I was working on? One of the digital savvies on the project made it into a font!

You are the greatest scientist who ever was. However, you have just been captured by a time-traveler, who wants you to solve an impossible problem. Every day, he rewinds time, retaining all of his memories while you lose all of yours, to prevent your escape. And now, you must find your way out.

Broadening a thought: We'd be better off if we stopped talking about "the internet of things" and started talking about "computers don't always look like we expect them to".
