Answers Requested

Flight or Invisibility? One or the other. No one else in the world has a superpower. You're the only one. Invisibility means the ability to turn transparent, your body and whatever clothes you're wearing, but not objects you pickup and you still have mass. Flight means the ability to levitate, within the earth's atmosphere, at speeds of up to 1,000 miles per hour. No super strength or invulnerability, just flight.
Which would you choose and why? No, wait. Think about it.


Which one?

caboose and i just had this discussion in the kitchen while listening to the podcast. i said, "flight.....who doesn't want to fly? plus invisibility would get old. and i'd feel dirty using it."

he said, "we had the same mother." nice job, homebase, you raised us right!

Caboose said...

Because I come to the same decision and used nearly the same words when I had this discussion at work.

flight.

although i'd have to watch it w/o any super strength to protect me from bashing into buildings etc.

the invisibility would become the better option if it also imparted the ghostly abilities to move through walls (the loss of mass).

flight-- You could go to all those wonderful places you wished to go. I could go to Ireland for the weekend, every weekend!! or live in Ireland and fly back here, yeah, yeah,.. can you tell I am thinking of visiting Ireland again? so where do we sign up?? Good to see your values are in the right place. :)

Man, we ALL chose flight? Crazy! I was the ONLY one in about 7 people at work who chose flight, the first time I asked this question.

hmmm.. good question.
I would want to fly. As a child, I would have dreams that I could fly . I would be running in a field and then all of a sudden ..I was in the air...it was AWESOME! or I could jump off my grandma's coach and fly around the room. You would save so much money on airfare and gas for that matter...off to work!
I think being invisible would only be beneficial for doing bad things...I wouldn't want the temptation. Plus I feel invisible sometime anyway why would I want to be like that for real. Don't get me wrong if I had a choice to be invisible or nothing I would take it... just not my first choice in fact I would say it would be my 5 or 6th choice.
