My only problem with the stairwell-piano is that I would want to play on it for way too long! And when I had to tell someone at work why I was late, I'd have to say, "Because I was playing on the stairs in the subway!"
I just saw something on the news yesterday about a similar experiment with a trash can that made sounds when you threw something away. The sounds were what you'd hear if you dropped something down a veeerrryyy deep hole and then it hit at the bottom. Sort of like cartoon sounds when the Coyote constantly was thwarted by the Roadrunner and fell over the cliff again and again! That trash can took in 53% more trash than it had before!
This reminds me of something Tony Robbins says -- the quality of the answer depends ont he quality of the question you ask yourself. If you ask yourself, "How can I push myself to get my exercise done?" you will get one kind of answer. But if you ask yourself, "How can I make my exercise fun so I want to go?" you get an entirely different sort of answer. The binoculars is the perfect example!
Perhaps that needs to be note by all the items on our todo list:
-- Get groceries and have fun
-- Do laundry and have fun
-- Take a walk and have fun!
