6:13 AM: 6 kinds of technology that lies to us every day. 1) The fuel gage on our car lies to us every day. When it says we are empty, we still have at least a gallon left, and when it says we’re full we could be only 90% full. 2) The “door close” button on the elevator. This button doesn’t even work, it just gives us the illusion that we are in control. 3) Scales that weigh our body weight. Whether it’s at home or in the doctor’s office, most scales aren’t accurate. 4) The thermostats in our offices. Most bosses install fake thermostats that keep employees from controlling the temperature. 5) Our car speedometers. They are usually not accurate in most cars. 6) The battery gauge on a cell phone. A cell phone can never charge to 100%. 7) The reception bars on a cell phone. A study shows that the number of bars really has no relation to the quality of the call and signal.

7:23 AM: Alex wants Tim Tebow arms, and thinks he can get them by December 16th. We all think this is a ridiculous goal in general, but with Alex it’s absolutely impossible. We checked in this morning to see what work outs he did yesterday to start this goal going, and he didn’t do any working out at all. His first step was shaving his entire body, arms, chest, and legs included. He said he needed to “get the canvas” ready and see what he was working with. The sad thing is, now his arms look even smaller now that he shaved them. He said he has no plans to work out though, and somehow expects to get big muscular arms this way.
