There are millions of Americans out of work and folks are fighting like dogs of Waffle Irons @ $2.

Wow.

As a society we are living well beyond our means…. we live in 2x as much space as we used to per person (800 sq feet+), and 4k square foot mcmansions are everywhere–many unfilled.

We are obsessed with buying things and concerns like +Walmart feel the need to ship folks into a frenzy. The local news coverage yesterday was 70% shopping related.

Studies show happiness doesn't come from stuff or space, it comes from experiences, relationships and a sense of accomplishment in building something. In fact, stuff makes folks depressed because they feel the need to inventory and take care of it (getting a little Buddhist here, yes).

As a society we are going to be fine, even if it doesn't feel like it will be fine. We've been programmed to feel like failures if we don't have a private jet, multiple cars and summer homes.

That's not the benchmark for success. How cool is the stuff you build, how much do you enjoy the folks you work with and how many awesome experiences you collect are the benchmark.

The amount of space and resources we have as Americans is unparalleled in the world. In a dooms day scenario, if unemployment doubled from the horrible state it is in today, could we simple add one more person to every fifth home and be just fine?

Carry on, it's going to be not only OK… but awesome.

HELL EXPLAINED BY A CHEMISTRY STUDENT

The following is an actual question given on a University of
*Washington *chemistry
mid-term.

The answer by one student was so 'profound' that the professor shared it
with colleagues, via the Internet, which is, of course, why we now have the
pleasure of enjoying it as well :

Bonus Question: Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic (absorbs
heat)?

Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle's Law (gas
cools when it expands and heats when it is compressed) or some variant.

One student, however, wrote the following:

First, we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing in time. So we need
to know the rate at which souls are moving into Hell and the rate at which
they are leaving. I think that we can safely assume that once a soul gets
to Hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving. As for how
many souls are entering Hell, let's look at the different religions that
exist in the world today.

Most of these religions state that if you are not a member of their
religion, you will go to Hell. Since there is more than one of these
religions and since people do not belong to more than one religion, we can
project that all souls go to Hell. With birth and death rates as they are,
we can expect the number of souls in Hell to increase exponentially. Now,
we look at the rate of change of the volume in Hell because Boyle's Law
states that in order for the temperature and pressure in Hell to stay the
same, the volume of Hell has to expand proportionately as souls are added.

This gives two possibilities:

1. If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls enter
Hell, then the temperature and pressure in Hell will increase until all
Hell breaks loose.

2. If Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in
Hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until Hell freezes over.

So which is it?

If we accept the postulate given to me by Teresa during my Freshman year
that, 'It will be a cold day in Hell before I sleep with you,' and take
into account the fact that I slept with her last night, then number two
must be true, and thus I am sure that Hell is exothermic and has already
frozen over. The corollary of this theory is that since Hell has frozen
over, it follows that it is not accepting any more souls and is therefore,
extinct……leaving only Heaven, thereby proving the existence of a divine
being which explains why, last night, Teresa kept shouting 'Oh my God.'

THIS STUDENT RECEIVED AN A+.
