Very clever, creative and perfect! I think about swirl and tornado, seeing the work. As to giving something a whirl, your examples are awesome! I agree we all need to do this once in a while (or in our life this is sometimes a constant). Broaden our horizons and giving in to curiosity... I like that! <br /><br />Recent examples: work on a translation job all weekend (advantage: money), visit a certain desert area for the first time (advantage: awe at the scenery and exercise through hiking), driving the owner of the house’s truck (advantage: gauging the road from a different perspective and learning to drive different vehicles).
