IDEA: Friendly Superheroes

Gradually introduce superhero nicknames for all your friends. Once the names have been somewhat established, change their names in your email addressbook to the superhero nicknames.

After a few weeks of emails they should all be used to this, whether or not they still think you're absolutely insane…

And that is when you send a mass email reminder to all of them about the next meeting of the Justice League.

It works best if you do this for people that don't regularly communicate with each other.

IDEA: Neighborhood Flash Freezer

We all know that putting food in the freezer will make it last longer.. and destroy the flavor and texture in the process. Wouldn't it be nice if there was a way to minimize the damage? Obviously there is, since the frozen food industry couldn't survive without it. The process of flash freezing uses cryogenic temperatures to freeze food almost instantly. The quick freezing prevents cellular damage to the food, keeping it preserved much better than a home freezer.

I think it'd be neat to see someone try to commercialize this as a service to normal consumers. Someone could bring their food to a rather small local facility where, for a reasonable fee, it would be flash frozen and ready to go in a matter of minutes.

This would probably only appeal at first to those that freeze large amounts of food, but it's possible that it could catch on. Maybe. I know that I'd like to have a bunch of frozen, ready-to-go meals in my freezer that didn't taste horrible and didn't have 500% of my daily requirement of salt.

Merry Christmas - In Engrish

I was curious - what would happen if I used babelfish to translate my "Merry Christmas" post to Japanese and then back into English?

This:  ;-)

As for that the year when it is long still to try in me. 1. Directly, another movement, never the uniform I had, desire which is begun, as for it is the relationship which re-tries the fact that perhaps with me who fail it improved, with the relationship which I really desire and is broken. When I can float circumstance in such wind, I (only this time me with life) (very) becoming extreme somewhat, it caused and the れ callous me who am ended with respect to the thing which scorns those 1 people of the extent which I really think strongly it was far from the part of the family, was brought up. That my heart - you are wrong and to concentrate it is to be something which it is tend and there is a thing many negativity which I approximately can continue.

But today.

Today it is good, there is a day when you think concerning entirely. What which we lose because certain ones celebrate, there are no we. Appreciation fairness being and is supported there, but in order to show in the friend and the family for a certain thing. In order and, because of me, to make the thing my stomach remember where Thanksgiving Day exactly is warming rise.

So, when I barely obtaining stage fright, I calmness, making in me, when being, when being I, you lending me with me, my vigor in all people who obtain me who their supports which are attached was attached and drink with stage/at bars/in "me for remains ones my handmade pizza which is accompanied it has coffeehouse breakfast which is shared, it increases,", cause chance in me who am given, sing - to I finally blowing that, the other things which endeavor in order to worry and the furniture where is contributed to my apartment. Anyone appreciates -. Are present approximately certain ones. And I stuff by myself of the food of your festival model.

Mary Christmas.
