    Teaching is a fancy way of saying "I spent at least 4 years at college to become a professional babysitter"

    Once driveless cars become more mainstream, I will build a 10 foot tall steel and concrete wall around my property. Then I will only have to worry about drones getting me while I sleep. That is until I can find some laser turrets.

    Now THAT's an idea. If we all chipped in a few grand we could buy a fleet of self-driving trucks and start a company. Then we could run CR England, Swift, et al. out of the business!

    A rail-gun would be almost as good as a laser. The US Navy is "experimenting" with them right now....which really means its already operational, just sort of covered up, just like military lasers are with the US Air Force.
