Text Talk

I guess that's what they call it when you put letters together to represent words, but IDK if it has a real terminology connected to it. But OMG I can't stand the text talk. It's like we're taking a huge piss on the English language. KK I might be overreacting, but I really don't like how people BRB and ROFL in conversations like it's proper. I think my favorite one is LQTM, which means Laugh Quietly To Myself. Comedian Demetri Martin taught me that. Other than that I've had none too positive relations with text talk. I did at one point try to make my own little anagram texty thing for a way people were feeling at a current time. It ended up horribly, but I'll let you read it anyway and see if you LOL. It was Pissed Of Right Now, and I'll let you put the letters together. Anyway this has been fun but I have to say GB. Captain Obvious FTW!

Airplanes

Well it's been awhile. No excuse really, I'm just incredibly lazy. In the meantime lets talk about airplanes. The mechanics themselves are amazing and the fact that we, humans, can fly en masse to another state or country in a matter of hours is truly remarkable. Airplanes bring to mind the Wright Brothers, Amelia Earhart, and the Tom Hanks movie Terminal. Though the Wright bros. are accredited with the creation of the first air craft, Leonardo Da Vinci's sketches illustrate an entire laid out plan for how to create a flying machine. Perhaps you've seen this:

I'm not much of a history buff but I did catch some ridiculous show called Creating Da Vinci or something of that nature where a group of modern technicians try to create the mechanisms from Da Vinci's recovered sketches. Best get off this tangent. Back to planes. Planes are famous in people's minds for crashes and security. No need to bring up the 9/11 event, or any other one for that matter but when you're that high up all I can think about is everything that might go wrong. Not crashing into a building either, but being like Tom Hanks Cast Away (what is with all the Tom Hanks references?) and forced to live on some stranded island all alone. I don't think I could handle the sand being in my shoes for all that time. As for security it's infamous around the country. The things that we can and can't bring on planes nowadays is a bit ridiculous. Here's a look at some of the fun things airports take.

I don't know if you can make all of that out but I see sunscreen, a wrench, what looks like a yo-yo, and scissors. I understand the scissors but some of that stuff just makes you go really? Flying, in short, is cool. Never been on a hang glider, rocket ship, jet pack, helicopter, parachute, dragon, giant bird, human kite, blimp, hot air balloon, or other flying machine besides an airplane so I reckon it's the best way to get around and it's the only one I can speak on, but I do think it's an amazing invention. If only we could figure out how to deal with our ears popping...
