See this link at GizModo. So you need to pay $10 to buy what is essentially a piece of isolation tape pasted over two metal parts that, when touched, causes a circuit between the two conductors hence influencing the antenna's performance. Doh.

Or... is this a dog? WHAT IS THIS????

Change is good. Without change the world would still consist of... well - nothing. Amoebas? Supercharged neutrinos? Who knows. But change is good - no dispute about that.

With change comes adapting. And that can be hard. Especially depending on the change. Adapting takes time. However when you are in the eye of the hurricane things are not always clear - are they?

Change is good. Change requires adaptation. Adaptation is a process. Got it.

Most people start out with a blank slate. No expectations. No desires. Except perhaps for living - survival. Important as that may be, it is not what makes us unique. As we grow older we start having different desires, different things we strive for. It starts out with very basic things - perhaps that new bicycle for Christmas. The last cookie in the jar mom hid in the cupboard. But as we grow older these things attain a certain depth to them.

For some people they desire love. Other want that perfect job. Some want power, other recognition, some fame and some other just to be healthy. Problem is very few people attain their childhood dreams. Mostly because the childhood dreams are not realistic - they are either impossible or improbable.

I think people who are happy are those people who came close to attaining their childhood dreams. Unfortunately that accounts for a tiny fraction of the population - it just is not likely that you will achieve what you desire simply because your reference frame as a child is incomplete and does not consider the realities of the real world.
