I'm sometimes a little slower, I guess I am still living in November...


What would happen, if we would freeze the water? WWE on ice?


Oooops, I'm a little crossthreading here...

Maybe I should write a book about quantum mechanics?

Here's also a nice thing for those, who like nice writings of walls, although a little different, sometimes very funny:

Teach Zac Efron and Robert Pattison ice skating and we can expand the target group a little.

You notice what we're doing?  

There are four options of what we are doing right now:

A) having the dumbest argument ever
B) wasting time discussing a topic that is highly improbable to find a solution ever
C) killing time on a slow foggy, rainy, cold November afternoon

D) making fools of ourselves...

please chose what fits best

I can already see the sparkling outfits.

I think we're on to something here......

This is going to be a hit! We're going to be filthy rich!

And will the bear have a breathing device?

Given the fact that the bear cannot breathe under water, he would need to be trained to scuba dive, in order for the shark not to have a too high of an advantage and make this a more or less fair fight.
