Sure, it’s Rebekah Brooks that got arrested over the Murdoch phone hack scandal.. but 9 Americans out of 10 will sadly think that Carrot Top got fired from his AT&T spokesman job..

Anger over Netflix price hike: Phones ringing off the hook at company..
Loyal fans angry over increase..
It’s amazing.. the world of technology, email, downloading videos on Netflix instantly.. and what do fans do? Old fashioned complaints. They pick up the phone, get angry, and talk.. Maybe there is hope for the world after all.. people do have emotions that they can express without keyboards or mouse clicks. Bravo, humanity! Bravo..

Would the world be better if we never had the internet?

With all of this Google study mania this week, it begs the question: Would we be better off, as a human race, never to have the information superhighway created? Just curious…

Exorcists flock to Poland

The goal: They will examine “the current fashion for vampirism in Europe and the world-over, schizophrenia and other mental disorders as well as the devil’s deceit during exorcism”

For many in Schuylkill County, PA, this is summer.. For others it’s what they find in their front lawns as cars drive by and toss them out.. Either way be safe.

...and one more point on the Google memory study

I have long believed that future humans will have Google-type phones or memory chips implanted in our skin and we will actually become a part of the internet. At that point, will humans know everything? What danger could that bring if we did? … No more Google when we are Google.

I think scientists are actually right..but there's always a 'but'

I believe that, as reported this week, Google is actually destroying what little minds we actually have left.. I know for me, soon after a search is complete and an answer is found, my mind trashes the little snippet of information like disposable waste..

But think of this! What if it’s information, the info we Google constantly, is information we shouldn’t really care to remember anyway? Maybe it’s simply a waste of time and space in our brain..

I wonder this: Would we remember the important stuff if we found it online? …I’d argue probably yes. I just wish I had enough money for a study.
