Vision's Intangibility Revisited
July 21, 2025I was bored. I decided to see what ChatGPT thought about one of the blog posts I wrote years ago.

April 12, 2025With the full moon rising tomorrow and the familiar restlessness setting in, I decided to revisit a post from 2006. Back then, every full moon didn't just disrupt my sleep; it sent my blog traffic soaring by 300-1000% as comments poured in from others sharing similar restless nights and quirky behavior during the lunar phase.

April 6, 2025Well, here we are. New blog, new home. I’ve shut down scotthough.com, moved the most popular posts over, and migrated everything from WordPress to a site I built myself (because who needs 300 plugins and a fragile database?). Now, my personal blog lives as a subdomain of The Vintage Gamers. Cleaner, leaner, and all under one roof - finally.

January 28, 2010As I watched a TV program discussing the recent earthquake in Haiti and comparing it to the 2004 earthquake that caused the massive tsunami, my mind began to wander. Could the sudden movement of the North pole be responsible for the increase in seismic activity we are witnessing around the globe? Despite not being a scientist or a geologist, it's an idea worth pondering. After all, certain rocks are attracted to magnetic fields because of their iron content, and it's not hard to imagine the earth's magnetic force pulling on the fault lines beneath our feet.

January 22, 2005Have you ever stopped to ponder what the end of the world might look like? I never really gave it much thought until a friend brought up the subject of nuclear weapons and the apocalypse. Suddenly, I found myself delving into the fascinating world of end-of-the-world myths, with one in particular standing out: the Norse myth of Ragnarok, or "Doom of the Gods." With its apocalyptic imagery and eerie similarities to the effects of a nuclear winter, Ragnarok is a haunting reminder of the fragility of our world and the potential for catastrophic destruction. So, let's dive into this myth and explore what it might teach us about the end of days.

January 21, 2005As a die-hard Marvel fan, I always marveled (pun intended) at the superhero Vision's incredible powers. He could control his density, making him as hard as a diamond or as ephemeral as a ghost passing through walls. But as I delved deeper into the science behind his abilities, I realized that something didn't quite add up.
