  1. I've read your post a few times, and I'm still not quite sure I understand.

    Well Fry is the guy who fell into a stasis pod for a thousand years in Futureama. The heads in jars.. ..

    I don't actually think I'm going to live to 263 or so, just it's something that was mentioned by a cracked insomniac Irish gipsy lady in a caravan.. During a full moon... During a thunderstorm... At 3am. It was a weird night. It started as an offer of cups of hot tea as we were soaked, got weird.

    But say one was planning to be around a long time, I'd go for hibernation as I really like my naps.

    Ultrasonic hibernation triggering discovery.

    "Scientists have developed new ultrasound technology that can induce immediate “hibernation”, they say.

    The system can be aimed at the head and bring on “torpor” a state similar to hibernation where mammals suppress their metabolism, reduce their body temperature and slow down other processes."

    Yes. Just microdose mind you. I'm not a raving druggie like Lacey :)

  5. I'm not sure I'd want my brain pickled in a jar. Makes for a sour disposition.




    See what I mean?

    Are you smoking something?

    How would a stablecoin have changed the outcome of this expedition?

    This article from The Guardian offers some interesting insight on why the world was so captivated by this incident.

    The author briefly addresses the imbalance in media attention when compared to the ship carrying refugees that went down near Greece. While you may not agree with all of his conclusions, he has some interesting observations.

    At least this dude was already 70 years old:

    Billionaire heir dies in car track accident

    https://www.aspentimes.com/news/jim...in-accident-sunday-at-woody-creek-race-track/

    Jim Crown died Sunday on a Woody Creek race track, on his 70th birthday.

    The chairman and CEO of Henry Crown, and managing partner of Aspen Skiing Co., struck an impact barrier in a single-vehicle accident at the Aspen Motorsports Park in Woody Creek, according to the Pitkin County Coroner’s Office.

    “The official cause of death is pending autopsy, although multiple blunt force trauma is evident,” the Coroner’s Office said in a statement. “The manner is accident.”

    So the Chinese lady billionaire was drunk when she drove into their private lake in her Tesla:



    Not everybody needs to go 12K down, if you have a Tesla, 6-8 feet will do it.
