So I'm sure many of you have heard about the change in TV from analog to digital set for 1 year from now which will make old (analog) TVs obsolete, unless you buy a converter. This switch to digital really is a great thing for TV, radio, the government, and most likely other technology. Many people are upset because they think they have to buy new TVs.
For those of you that have not heard, Barrack Obama has decided not to wear the American flag lapel pin that has become so common among politicians since 9/11. It is crazy that people would make a big deal out of not wearing a lapel pin.
If you have read my other post on Immortality, you are aware of what I will be talking about. If you haven't, take a quick look at it. I have a link to the article on that one. What this is about though, is a man and how he claims that he will soon be able to make humans capable of living to be 1,000 years old.
First off, I want to apologize for not being on forever. Things have been crazy in my world, but not enough to be more than a lame excuse. Luckily, I don't think that many people read my posts, or are waiting for the next one, though it is long overdue. The last post was supposed to be the first of a series, but have haven't been on for like 6 months.
When I first heard that scientists are working on hindering natural aging and making it possible for people to live to 1,000 years old, I freaked. My mind raced with all kinds of terrible possibilities. I was going to try and talk about several of the problems this will cause, but I decided I'll take my time and write several posts about this.
In this time of finals, I thought I'd write about the dreaded Essay Test. Personally, I think this style of testing is a bit unfair.
So I just learned about Current TV by this guy that came to my school for one of my film and media classes. He told us all about Current. When I heard it was started by Al Gore, I wasn't so interested. Oh great, a television station dedicated to global warming, ManBearBig, and slow monotimous talking. As I learned, it's so much more than that.
Writers (from the Writers Guild of America) have gone on strike. The strike started sharply on Monday, November 7. It is believed that it will last a long time. The writers are prepared for a "marathon."
