Yalp, Hard to get your eye off the problem and concentrate on the solution. |

He panicked and froze. He got distracted by the cameraman and when he looked back at what he was doing, he completely shorted out. Fear and adrenaline does that. In my first race on my Guzzi Sport, back in the 70s, I went into a hard left turn on the first lap and completely forgot to grab the front brake. I had so much adrenaline in my system, I couldn't think straight and all my reflexes were on bypass mode. I wound up running off the track. The same thing happened to that poor Triumph rider. |

I've watched people build mud stoves to cook bread in camp. ( actually I walked by, watched for a minute, chatted, and then did it again daily until they had bread. ) But I have to say the most imaginative engineering feat I've seen is the company that stuck a water pump on a merry go round for kids, so that playing pumped water from the river to a fountain/pool for the village. Endless hours of carrying water in jugs from the river, eliminated. Naturally rich people far away who never had to fetch a pint of water in their lives complained about child labor. |

Back when Quake 3 was big, you could change avatars and post them to the server. If you wanted to see other than the stock space marine you then had to download the folder from the server. I found a Dalek avatar. Instead of playing the "oof" sound when you jumped down, it played a resounding "clang", and would randomly yell "Exterminate". ( which could get you killed ) The railgun spiral beam effect in the game was nigh identical to the Dalek weapon. Much fun. I used to play on the Syracuse Road Runner server since they had the big multi player maps. I mentioned this to a guy at work and he said he'd try it. The next day he came in and was freaking out. "I log in, download the maps & files, & start to play. You're right, the maps are huge. I start running then I hear the action coming closer, then A Freaking Dalek jumps out and kills me! A Dalek!!!! WTF? I respawn, and I can't find anyone to shoot. Dead bodies everywhere. Then Clang! I'm dead and this Dalek runs by killing everybody and screaming Exterminate! What the????" I asked him when he logged on, then told him it was me. He was really traumatized. |
