Have you ever wondered...? [More:] If so, what about?
I am full of wonder. Of course to some people that means I'm full of shit.

No, I never wonder. I know everything because I am so smrt.

All the time. I wonder what it is that other people wonder about and whether they are wondering what I am wondering while they wonder whatever it is they are wondering.

I'm just full of wonder. Like what Dg said. I wonder about what it would be like to be someone else, and I wonder where they're going next and what their life is like. I wonder what life would have been like if I'd made different choices, even slight ones. I wonder at the beauty of sunrises and sunsets. That's just me...wonder-full!

Yes, as I wander.

Never. Wondering leads to dancing.

This morning I was wondering why 1-day contact lenses and 2-week contacts cost about the same per month. The materials in 2-week lenses couldn't cost that much more, so they are obviously pricing them as a service, rather than as goods. They are charging me a certain amount to see clearly for a month, and they figure it should cost me the same no matter how I choose.

I think it's time for homemade Lasik surgery. Honey, boil the cheese grater.

Also, I was wondering last night why there isn't some kind of tea-making attachment on top of Japanese refrigerators. Like everyone else in Japan, we drink a lot of tea、and in summer we boil water, brew tea, cool it down in a water bath in the sink, then transfer it into a pitcher and put it into the refrigerator.

Sometimes you get home in the afternoon and you're running out of cold tea, and you don't want to boil stuff in the heat of the day, or it's too soon before dinner for it to cool sufficiently.

Why isn't there an automatic tea maker atop the refrigerator, with a hopper where I can load in loose tea leaves? When the tea is low, it could draw filtered water on its own, boil it, drop in the leaves, drain the brewed tea in to a cooling tank, and then when it's sufficiently cool, automatically shunt through a tube into a tea dispenser tank in the the refrigerator. Dump out the used tea leaves like coffee grounds and put fresh leaves in, and the refrigerator has done 80% of the work.

Such a regrigerator would sell like crazy. It seeems like child's play for an engineer to design it.
