Thinking Places

Where do you do most of your thinking? You know, the ruminating that helps you prioritize and figure out difficult problems… In the car? In the shower? While running?

I find that the car is my preferred location… I seem to come up with the most ideas or work through problems best in the drive to and from work. Of course, this is only if I’m driving without the radio turned on. Unfortunately, I usually have to rely on my memory or hastily scribbled notes since I tend to forget to bring a handheld recorder with me.

The remainder of the day, I try not to think. I try to limit it to a half-hour each day at most, at risk of hurting myself.

What is this then?

The Daily Ping is the web's finest compendium of toilet information and Oreo™® research. Too much? Okay, okay, it's a daily opinion column written by two friends. Did we mention we've been doing this for over ten years? Tell me more!
