Rocker Sheryl Crow invents time machine!
Rocker Sheryl Crow (pictured, holding what might well be the prototype) has invented a time machine, but instead of keeping it secret -- as the government would -- she has published a brief description of test results:[...] every time you hear the rolling thunderThis is the only information Crow has released on what could be the find of the 21st century, leading this observer to believe the time machine either is still being tested, or only works in the presence of a thunderstorm -- which suggests a large power draw, perhaps as much as 1.21 gigawatts (Great Scott!), making it prohibitively expensive to operate.
you turn around before the lightning strikes [...]
This device also appears only able to send its user to the very near past -- within seconds -- making it somewhat less than useful on a wider scale, and creating a strong risk of such paradoxes as present-day Crow meeting ten-seconds-ago Crow. Excessive use of a machine like this could risk the unraveling of the entire continuum.
Obviously, the advantage of Crow's design is its small size, allowing its user to hide it in plain sight on a shelf among books, trophies, and tawdry bric-a-brac.
