hahahaha...me too brutha, me too. But you KNOW Walmart, Amazon, Apple, Dell, Ford and GM all want to spatter ads all over the wall in your bedroom, in front of your toilet and shower doors. even worse is if they all have cameras!!!

But you know all these companies have been hot and bothered to network every single thing in our lives. I am only semi-joking here but the marketing wonks want to know when we flush, open the 'fridge and track via RFID how and when we use the stuff we buy. Thanks goodness I will be dead before these things happen but it's the way the world is moving right now.



I find it all very interesting rather than depressing or for the soul crushing, freedom destroying take over of the daily lives of people everywhere. What is interesting to me is the whole Idiocracy (funny movie when in the proper frame of mind) movement that society has taken in order to enable this. Oh heck I went and meandered OT yet again. But darn, when you look at some of the recent candidates for US President as well as the previous winner, and heck toss in the current "winner" I suppose we get what we pay for, right? Guess I've got to be me, hahaha! I mean geeze that took one heck of a "bootlegger turn" on my part to go from these super cool glass devices to the Tin Foil Hat Society in just a couple posts!! I'm proud of myself this time.
