How about a squirrel busily gathering nuts? I'm at rest relative to that.

Energy of squirrel = M*** of nuts times Chewing velocity. Squared.

Cause everyone should have a square meal.

One thing I've wondered is, if mass is partially relative to the speed of light, what is the speed of light relative to?
That'll probably come up again with lots of jargon in it, if/when we break the light-speed barrier.

"Just cause it got from here to there and back before light did, doesn't mean it was actually travelling faster than light. Relative to itself, the photons experienced phase shifting dopplar blahzidy blah effects, so really it's not going faster. Einstein be praised!"
