In the movies, invisibility is a potent power. The characters can frequently do the impossible if they have the power of invisibility, whether it’s a starship with cloaking ability or a wizard with an invisibility cloak.

You know you’re feeling cranky these days but you’re not quite certainly why. Well, you did feel left out earlier today when no one bothered to bring you into the meeting discussion at the office and that was aggravating.

Have you ever left your Earbuds in your pocket and they ended up going through the laundry or maybe lost them altogether? Now it’s so boring going for a walk in the morning. Your commute or bus ride is dreary and dull. And the sound quality of your virtual meetings suffers considerably. The old saying
