yep. death phase.

so what's the next big thing? netscape, AOL, pedometer, nike free, twitter, FRB, strava, google+, apple watch, then...

it's probably something in 4D

if you are ever interested in a business partnership, i have a good formula for a non-flammable, edible hairspray packaged in a travel-sized spritz bottle for runners on the go. it doubles as an energy pack, similar to 5 hour energy but with more caffeine. it's mostly environmentally friendly. we could make it a package deal with a b*t*sweat towel and split the profits 60/40. LMK.

But I've been fooled by other edible hairsprays before. Last time, the hairspray tasted awful. Before that, the product tasted fantastic, but just wouldn't keep my hair right. So excuse my skepticism.

If we can add some ephedra and change it to environmentally UNfriendly, then I'm on board.

Probably the next big thing is the footpod addition, the Fast Running Friend. It's been in beta testing for several years now, but when it's fully released, I predict several people will use it, as long as they are capable programmers.

I'm waiting for the Fast Running Friend 2.0 which delivers an electric shock when your effort level decreases below a certain threshold.
