Deathclocks have been around for a few years as I remember seeing one on Rosie O'Donnell er Oprah or one of those lame ass shows a few years ago.  Talk about a compulsive buy.

I believe police have those, I think they're called K9's, heh, little joke from me, Travis, in the booth.

Best invention hands down would have to be a device that, in real life, would physically hurt and or kill any person on the television screen at the push of a shiny red button.  Mmmmmmmmm.

On a serious note, I believe they are working on a television that can create smells, i.e., flowers, rain, bacon......mmmmmm bacon.

Yeah but from what I understand, current deathclocks just count down from the average human lifespan, not even factoring in health or family history or career status. Farnsworth's deathclock is surely more scientific and accurate, putting all us young whippersnappers in our place.

Probably so but after a few minutes of hunting I bet you could find a downloadable deathclock that would ask you for your health-basics i.e., smoker, drinker, diseases in the family and whatnot.  I'd look but I'm not in a hurry to find out when I am going to kick the bucket.

Are you kidding? Imagine all the crazy things you would do today if you knew you were dying tomorrow. You could...

tell off people you hate
take out a loan, and then live the good life for your last day and a half of living
ask an ugly girl out
beat up Maury Povich, or any other hated celebrity
make people feel sorry for you that you're about to die

And there's plenty more. Man, I wish I could die sometime.

If you live after the words "live every day as if it were your last", you've got to be one sad badass. You know that every day could be your last (ops, I'll die tomorrow), so you won't do things that might kill you (e.g. everything most people do every day, like going to work, sports, sex, eating,...).

It would be better if you "live every day as if it were your last, but your uncle beat you on your head yesterday and you don't know the date anymore".

Yeah, the risk stays the same, but at least you've got some serious fun until you drop dead. Point. Exclamation mark.

Which I think begs the question: what would you guys do on your last day on Earth? If you knew you had 24 hours to live?

First, I'd email FishyJoe and ask his advice, he seems to know a bit about this stuff. Then I'd take out a loan, tell off people I hate, and I'd go around to this guy's house (I've been crazy about him for like two years) and hand him a doctor's cert saying I was going to die and would he please . . . well, you know. Once that was done, I'd go and teach my son how to shave, listen to my daughter play her sax and play hacky-sack with my father.  :cry:

The off-topic board looms before my eyes. . .

I'm dying on June 25, 2043. Now all I have to do is decide what to do the day before.
