In some of my pevious posts I’ve mentioned in passing that I’m a scientist. This is very true. Not just any kind of scientist either. I’m like an inventor type scientist in the vein of Thomas Edison or Tex Winter. One of my previous inventions is something I like to call “The Skateboard of Truth.”

The premise behind “The Skateboard of Truth” is pretty simple. Basically what it does is display on the bottom of the deck the truth about the rider. If you are a jerk, it will say you are a jerk. If you are a good guy, it wll say you are a good and so on and so forth. It’s like a magic 8-ball, but for real. The truth telling mechanism is activated by the user doing a kickflip. Here’s a picture of my friend Peter Pham demonstating how it works:

See? Isn’t that cool? And for all of you doubting Thomases out there that think I’m just making this up, I’ll have you know that Peter Pham is without question one of the realest people you will ever meet.
