Hello, I am Bailey! You may know me from such heated blog discussions as Tim’s article on gay marriage and Chris’ link memorial under my name. With all my hanging around the myMac site like an outsider trying to fit in, Tim finally took pity and let me be part of the gang. Furthermore, I am out of my wits on who would actually take the time to read my mindless drivel. But, if posting my mindless drivel brings me one step closer to my ultimate goal of world domination, I say go for it.
Politics and religion. These are two subject matter I am not inclined to discussing over my blog, for the main reason everyone seems to have an uncompromising opinion on them. People get killed just because you dare to question their stand on politics and religion. Not that I am a scaredy-cat on voicing my opinion on politics and religion. But I have learned discussions on the above subjects never really come to a resolution. Just check last week on Tim’s article.
Come to think of it, if I don’t discuss politics and religion, my reader interest meter would just fall down from boring to absolute snooze-fest. My posts will now not just mindless drivel, but mindless drivel buried under 10 feet of crap hauled to the nearest recycling center. I guess I could slip politics and religion once in a while.
So on with some interesting tidbits of regurgitated news :
This I entitled: ‘I told you to pay attention in shop’
A group of University of British Columbia engineering students have been been busy trying to develop a human powered helicopter. They decided to take on the challenge put up by the American Helicopter Society in 1980. The society’s Igor I. Sikorsky Human-Powered Helicopter competition promised $20,000 to anyone who could not only build but also fly a chopper powered by human muscle.

Second story titled: ‘How to alienate your wife before you even get married’
We all know that the Japanese has always been in the bleeding edge of making smaller and smaller versions of funky gadgets. But there are things that do not fit the ‘smaller is cool’ idea. For example, you aren’t going to impress anyone with the latest offering from Hitachi’s micro-machines division, which has created the world’s smallest diamond ring. The ring itself has a diameter of only 0.02 millimetres and houses a five-billionth of a carat diamond, which can only be seen with a microscope. A digital microscope photo of the ring won the gold award at this year’s Asia-Pacific Conference on Electron Microscopy.

Well, that is all for now. I do not want to come out too strong to you dear reader (yes, it is singular. Hi Mom!). Feel free to email me on suggestions, ideas and violent reactions.
