Elderly Writing

When do you consider someone old? I think you are as old as you feel; a great example of this is the flying granddad. He is over eighty years old and is competing in races. But not just any old ordinary race, things like the race to the sky and the rally NZ. Another example of this, although it’s fictional, is the Emperors new grove 2, Kronk’s new grove, Kronk scams the oldies into thinking that he’s selling them youth potion but it’s a fake. The oldies all think its working and do things that they could never other wise, but because the potion is fake, it has no physical effect on them, all the things that the did were because the felt younger, not because of the potion. So this proves that you are and always will be as old as you feel.

Weird Cellphone Science

There is a revolutionary new form of cellphone security, a motion detector. The motion detector picks movement up and down, side to side and forward and backward. What you do is place the cellphone (with the motion detector inside it) in your waist pocket, walk and the motion sensor picks up the pattern of your walk and saves it in its memory. When a thief takes your cellphone it compares your walk to there’s and because your walk is unique to you, the cellphone shuts down because there isn’t a match of walk. However the design has a few flaws, you walk differently on ice and when drunk, thus the cell phone shuts down, so they installed a unlock code to reassure the phone it’s you. But when some people are drunk they forget the code. At the moment the design is still in the prototype stage.
