2012 Correlation Study: Cleavage vs Drama

with 7 comments

I have a question that has been haunting me of late and perhaps my fellow readers can help to enlighten me with some insightful answers…

Question:
Is there a direct correlation between the size of a womans breasts and the amount of drama in her life?

Does Bustier Cleavage...->

Does Bustier Cleavage...->

Equal More Drama?

Equal More Drama?

So while this may seem a little off-topic… believe me its not…! With all the junk being attached to the coat tails of 2012 from UFO’s to Unicorns to God knows what else… I thought I would throw in a shameless plug for some of my own favorite musings… :)

I can tell you there is definitely a direct correlation between one of the pictures above and the amount of traffic this article is getting. Care to guess which picture? You got it! the bag! Women are flocking by droves for a closer inspection of the quality of stitching…

2012 Projected Technology Horizon…

without comments

2012 is bringing out the best and the brightest of ideas… that in all seriousness is 50% sarcastic and 50% serious. 2012 has spawned birth to a public platform that is ranging wider than our fields of beautiful amber waves of grain… From the most obscure mythological factions to cutting edge technological ideas of advancement, we as citizens of this world are definitely progressing on a rapidly accelerating journey of change which may or may not culminate in something significant specifically in 2012.

Like most things in history though… events are only as significant as the value that people place on them.

As I wade through a seemingly endless network of links and articles on 2012 that make the Everglades seem like a leisurely stroll… I am discovering all kinds of technology being put into production that I have never even imagined. Yet… at the same time I am finding seemingly convincing information on a food shortage. I mean, look at the following…

Emotional Gaming – “Project Epoc”

The use of EEG brain scanning has now moved into the gaming industry with up–to–date developments in sensory gaming. Recently Emotiv publicly released information on their upcoming ‘Project Epoc’, a developmental technology that interprets electrical signals emitted by the brain and converts them into actions on a computer. In this way the user/gamer is able to direct actions via their thoughts in the online environment. Below are pictures of two prototypes which the company expects to market some time in 2008. – Gnosticliberationfront.com

So we can invent machines that allow us to play video games through thought but we can’t monitor global food production and supply? We can’t have a super advanced spreadsheet that calculates a 10 year projection of our coming food needs but you can sit on your couch and play a video game without moving a muscle?! Okay… it will probably require something a little more advanced than a spreadsheet but in light of the EEG Gaming contraption displayed above, I think our billions(?) of dollars in global agriculture could have slapped a stats system together?

Are we seriously being told that an obscure corporation can slap together a machine that reads your actual thoughts AND converts them into tangible actions but there isn’t a capability to create a hybrid of an Excel spreadsheet and Google Analytics on steroids to keep the 21st Century middle class global citizenry from going hungry?

Does that ring a little ludicrous only to me…?! Will that change by 2012?! Hello? Do you think we can have a multi-billion(?) dollar industry that deals with life or death necessities (food & drink) catch up with the metric measurement and projection capabilities of obscure tech companies (see above EEG contraption) and webmasters worldwide (see Google Analytics)?

Anybody?

2012 another Y2K?

with 2 comments

As I am beginning to compile information on 2012 and Mayan Prophecy… I can’t help but wonder how much of this is “legitimate” and how much is “Y2K”…

Anybody remember far back enough with me when “Y2K” was the popular buzzword and if a conversation got dull at a party all you had to do was drop your one line thought on Y2K and everybody would eagerly clamour to give theirs? Or God help you if you dropped “Y2K” into a “geek” or LAN party!!!

How many theories were circulating out there about Y2K? … How many times did I hear that we would be going back to “Ma and Pa Ingalls” days? And when Y2K rolled around… (drums please)… what happened?! Nothing…

Are we as a society simply over hyping the next big thing because we need a little excitement or drama?… We need another good “rescue topic” for a lame party? Drop “2012″ or “Mayan Prophecy” into certain circles now… not geek or LAN parties obviously (but don’t worry… they will catch on soon)… but more so into history buff and academic circles… watch the room explode with seemingly the most over qualified minds of the era on the topic of 2012!

If Mayan Prophecy is worth our attention… then what has it predicted previously that has come true? And if it hasn’t predicted anything else then on what basis has Mayan Prophecy merited so much attention?…

Just some thoughts and questions…

Ideas?
