Wasting Time

According to our surveys, most of our readers spend their free time snorting cocaine and wasting their time. If you are one of the many who snort cocaine, there is help for you. First, you might try stopping, or getting a job to support your habit. If you want to stop, try getting a psychiatrist and a divorce lawyer. In terms of wasting your time, you might want to stop reading this blog... maybe try this.

How to Dress to an Outdoor Concert

A few things you should bring to a concert:

- water bottle; you don't want to dehydrate yourself!
- dress for the weather; don't expect it to be a good idea to wear a scarf and sweater in the summer!!
- Do not wear your best clothes; chances are you will get dirty (spilled drinks, dirt)
- at a large venue it may be possible to bring a chair; it is tiring to stand all day
- if possible bring your own drinks!! drinks at music festivals can be expensive, or at least bring enough money
- lay off the make up, girls! it can get hot out there and you dont want your makeup running down your face!!

Stoplights of the Future

A problem that some people have with our stop lights of today is that the yellow light is unpredictable. Either a yellow light means you have five seconds to get to and clear the intersection, or you have less than 2. In the latter case, you might find yourself maintaining  your speed, without slowing, and then watch the light turn red as you continue through the intersection. This genius solution is both simple, easy to understand, and quite elegant. This idea is to, instead of having these arbitrary green, yellow, and red circular lights, have an hourglass that trickles down, giving a more accurate representation of how much time you actually have. The image below shows this "in action," so to say. If you can look past a couple of grammar mistakes, you get the general idea.
