Hearts a Flutter


Valentine's Day has been co-opted by the female of the species. Candy, flowers, white tablecloth dinners, meaningful conversation---if guys are honest, none of these activities would make the list of top five things to do on a Thursday night.  On Valentine's Day there are duties to be performed and monies to be spent. It's an investment in the future, like the Prisoner's Dilemma with multiple iterations.

On the other hand, what really sets male hearts a flutter is speed, power, and destruction (as long as no one gets hurt--this is a family blog) such as the supersonic ping-pong bazooka put together by the Purdue engineering department. Note the unsurprising absence of gender diversity in the video.
