113. First three-story building in Lagos (Odunfa street), constructed in 1914.
Cc:Ishilove

I grew up on this street in the Island. We came back from church on a Sunday in November 1989 to meet the building in fire. A pregnant woman jumped from the third floor to escape the inferno. She sustained serious injury as she landed on a pointed stuff. Can't remember if she survived.

It took the men of the fire service about two weeks to completely extinguish that fire. We used to call that building "Ile Andrew". After the fire, it became our table tennis arena.

On this same street at no 79, Odunfa was the house Oyekan lived before becoming the Oba of Lagos.

Oh.. How I miss that street.

121-123. Some futuristic projects.


▶ A Colony on Mars.

Elon Musk wants to die on Mars. In order to do so, it appears he’s planning on eventually starting a colony on the red planet. This settlement would hold up to 80,000 humans, beginning with a group of ten pioneers who would begin to set up the infrastructure before more people would join.


▶ Galactic currency.


An intergalactic currency that can be used anywhere in the universe.This system would officially extend the economics of Earth into the solar system, allowing companies and tourists to have a payment option that would link with their account back home.


▶ The Hyperloop.

Public transit would consist of pods that hold around 30 people, travelling through tubes at speeds up to 760 miles per hour, ferrying passengers from distances as far as San Francisco to Los Angeles in just over half-an-hour. The hyperloop experience would be similar to taking off in an airplane, with an initial rush of acceleration followed by floating on a cushion of air, but with far less turbulence.

124. In the Near Future, ‘Robotic Sex Partners Will Be Commonplace’

In the wake of engineers announcing that they have built an army of 1,000 robots that can come into formation on command, a report is now saying that by 2025 “robotic sex partners will become commonplace.” Yes, you heard right. Sex robots.
Robotics will become important, because you’re going to have labour shortages in the future. Even robot prostitutes’ that would not pass on diseases such as HIV could make an appearance. "No STDs, HIV, no Premature ejaculation."

*Modified*

The tortoise was 70yrs old in 1902, meaning the Tortoise has been living since 1832. Do we have any living being that was born in 1832?
