good morning who ever is out there.  this is a fun topic that I have not seen before in prior chats
It's new for me too
good morning again jared.  you seem to be one of the only ones out there this morning. but that is fine for me because we do really good together when we chat in this game
Thanx It's easy I don't say much
wow.  you are right.  and there is a first.  you actually did three bubbles in a row before I could say anything. are you on caffine now this morning?  come on tell me? :-)
Haha. No
well it would be okay if you were.  I am just saying that you are great to chat with either way question.  do you do anything with the chat ratings at the end of our dialogue sessions.  you know the three ratings?
No
ya.  I used to but I dont any more.  i assume they know its a good chat unless I take the effort to intentionally mark them down I have only rarely marked someone down.  and it was usually because they would not talk very much and I felt like it was a waste of time
I don't talk much
ya but a least I know you are there and you do answer enough that i know you are listening and you would tell me if I was talking to much right?  like right now.
I would. And you are not
Cool.  thanx.  that is another example of why I like chatting with you have you had a chance to chat with anyone else?
No. Not yet.
Okay.  that is weird because he odds are that you would be connected with other people who are in line to chat
Weird
maybe it is the ungodly time at night and in the morning that get on and decide to chat with someone. everyone else is in bed getting sleep or doing something like eating. etc.
Probably
Well no matter.  Its working out great for me to be chatting with you as often as we do.  It gets me more points in a short amount of time if you are okay with me talking
Works for me. I'm not worried about points
right.  So we were earlier this morning talking about losing the internet and ironically I went to take a quick break and lost my internet connection so I decided to take a little longer break.
Oh. Ironic for sure
So this chat topic started with what we would do with a flying car I have always dreamed of inventing a flying car ever since i was a little kid.  I dreamed I made it out of some old boxes and a lawnmower engine and that I could take people for rides to school in it.  and the cute girls always rode with me and the other school mates, the boys anyway, were jealous of me
Haha
right.  I love the freedom in my dreams.  there is a lot of things that are possible in dreams - the ones i have I have only had a couple times in my life when I could not sleep and that was horrible.  I prayed that I could sleep but I would never (almost) take any sleeping medication because I heard you can get addicted to most sleeping medications physically or mentally and I did not want either so I had to slug it out
Where would you go with the flying car?
haha.  right. I got off topic again.
That's cool
One thing I would like for sure is that I would not have to worry about the traffic conditions in the morning if I could fly up and over the morning rush hour congestion
True
I guess that would work until everyone else also got flying cars and then the skies to work would be a mess.  in fact, it would probably be even worse that it is now because there are no lane markers in the sky and likely there would or could be lots of accidents
I agree
and if everyone had one then it would not be as cool. the cute girls would not need a ride because their parents would have gotten them one too.  Haha what a crazy twist to my favorite dream of having a flying car. I wonder if everyone had a flying car whether the traditional cars that drive on the ground would be the rage. kind of like how everyone likes the old classic muscle cars. if everyone was flying then there would be nobody on the ground streets and then I could race to work
Yep
I would assume that flying cars have a lot more parts to maintain and obviously skipping the maintenance or repairs could have more serious consequences when you suddenly just fall out of the sky
For sure
haha.  what if you painted your flying car sky blue. and it could disappear into the air or almost disappear on a clear
Cool
day. maybe.  I guess having an invisible flying car would not be good i could see that you would have frequent accidents if the sky roads were crowded.
Yep
/would a flying car have a need for wheels
Maybe
where would you locate the doors on a flying car? would it hover when it was parked or would it sit on the ground if it hovered then the doors could be on the bottom and that would be really cool and start a lot of new designs
Yep
maybe the doors could be designed to rotate around like a track in a ball.
I don't understand
have you seen those balls that can drive around via remote
No
okay.  well its kind of hard to explain.  the center of the ball uses some sort of gyro system to always keep it facing up so the all can roll any direction without tipping over the contents inside.  Its an amazing concept or invention of our time and the way it rolls is that there is a separate track i may be wrong.  i am not an engineer nor have I actually owned one
Sounds logical
okay.  good.  i am sure I am missing something or said it wrong but then when ever you flew your car it could land anywhere and always have the door in the same place or you could change the door to which ever side made the most sense
I like it. I'll buy one
haha.  ya right.  I get the first one. hey you probably dont know this and i am not sure if I am supposed to say but I am in second place and have been closing in on the leader because he is either still asleep or doing something else.  or if I am lucky he has given up
Didn't notice
right.  well any way. I have gotten a couple of encouragement texts this morning from other students who knew that I was participating in this project and have recently noticed that the leader and I have broken away from the pack and there is a real competition between us.  we both want to win the other guy has been really really motivated and somehow bursts into the lead.  I have been slow and steady and on a lot I am hoping that slow and steady wins the race.  Like the story of the rabbit and the turtle race from the old fable books
Good luck
well I guess there are some people who are still causally checking in to chat but they are really watching the competition sometimes on my other chats I will get someone who congratulates me on my crazy dedication to the project.  Its all good and fun I dont think I have ever chatted so much in my life
Will you continue after
haha.  probably not.  I probably wont chat again for years after this.  I am amazed at how high the leader and I have gotten its a crazy amount of time and texting.  I dont know if we are doing this for the prize or for bragging rights.  who cares we do it because its a challenge and its there to be overcome kind of like the saying about a mountain and why people climb it
Makes sense. Kind of.
haha.  every once and a while I get the feeling you are really very witty and if you talked more could be very entertaining
Are you saying I am not now
no. in fact I was trying to imply that I think you are entertaining and witty but that most people besides me would probably not know because you dont say much.
Sometimes less is more
haha.  my roommate says that too me a lot.  well, he is my ex roommate now.  he is gone selling bug spray for the summer and I am continuing to take summer classes -- when I am not chatting
Makes sense
anyway.  he thinks I have too much stuff for our little shared dorm room and that I should learn to live more simply
That's good
yes but anyone who lives in these tiny dorm rooms knows that life is already very simplified in order to do that.
True
one thing he preaches is that if your life is simpler then your life can also be more efficient because you are not spending (he says wasting) time to organize and maintain stuff
Yep
i mean.  I am already down to just a couple of shirts and pants and shoes and I do a lot of my books online oh that is another thing that would be bad if there was no internet.  my online related learning and studies would
Haha. Yep
stall out and come to an end. my mom and dad are book hoarders.  they think that the internet really will stop some day and they want to be the ones who still have stuff to read and learn from.  my thought is a little different. I think that if all that stuff was no longer available then our lives would be better.
True. If you were already educated
