Where's this bus going?
My mother once again sent me an interesting puzzle, which was apparently given to pre-school kids, all of whom gave the right answer. In which direction is the bus traveling? (The only possible answers are "left" or "right".) Kids are great observers, because they don't interpret nor overthink things as much as grownups do. Some of us probably even see the bus coming straight at us.
While walking around in the charming city of Sausalito, I saw a crowd gather around a man - Bill Dan - who made a living balancing rocks on top of one another. At first I thought it was all a gimmick, that he discreetly put some invisible glue to hold the odd-shaped rocks together, until the strong winds toppled one of his creations. There is something innately spiritual in this art form, and anyone can learn how to do it by applying - consciously or unconsciously - simple physics and engineering principles. And of course, a ton of practice.
