Points to ponder

Does being able to autopilot a lot of things every day leave you with more time to focus on the important stuff or does it just make you a sad person who doesn't enjoy life to the fullest?

I think it would be quite something to have the ability to teleport combined with a timer option. Would come in especially handy on those days when getting up from the bed seems to require superhuman effort. Imagine this: You'd open your eyes and find yourself standing before the sink, ready to get started with your day.
Of course, it could backfire badly. Say you forgot to turn the timer off when on vacation or something and you were teleported to work while still in your nightclothes. Or your bathrobe. Although that would be kinda cool in an Arthur Dent kinda way. More so if your boss/colleagues happen to be into the hitchiker's guide thing.

Or maybe one ought to have the option of beaming a hologram of oneself to work. Get the boring stuff done by being there but not quite there.


I've noticed lately that a lot of people seem to respond to the little nice things I manage to send in their direction. Of course, I could be imagining this.

But I'll continue living under that delusion. I'd like to think I'm making the world a better place. One sincere 'thank you' at a time. Thank you very much.
