Where to start with the year that was.
Well, 2007 was the year that the
earth gave out some of its secrets. Most of them are really eerie. Such as that place where the ocean waters are the clearest. Or the fact that the speed demons on EDSA may actually
make our days shorter. Bummer.
As if high school kids don't have enough to deal with already; In addition to the internet and PSPs, good luck to the teachers who will force this one unto them lads: Scientists are now more open to the possibility of
parallel worlds and/or
higher dimensions. Even the possibility of
time travel. But wouldn't it be fun for the kids, though, if a
surfer dude actually got the answers right more than those nerdy scientists? And for god's sake, stop observing the heavens! Stop, damn you!
You're destroying the universe! And you, man. Yes, you. Ever wonder why you'll never be the man your father was? Or the way your grandfather was?
Check your testosterone levels. Men today have significantly lower testosterone levels than those of the same age 10 years ago. It makes sense actually. It explains why we have all those metrosexuals and emo kids and their emo haircuts. (Yes, I do realize most of the research used US males as samples. But seriously, do you think RP government would spend money to determine Pinoy's testosterone levels?)
Yup, 2007 was weird. Let's see what's in store for 2008.
You thought you've defined all the possible viruses that could attack your computer.
What about your router? (I'll stop here. I don't want to give anyone ideas.)
A
new network could turn everyone's cellphones to desktop computers. Anyone got $4.6billion to spare?
Been searching for God and haven't found anything? Try looking in
Italy.
Are you like most people who use their laptops as reading material? Did you ever wish your documents were easier to carry around like, say, a book?
2008 is the year for wishes coming true.
And if you've followed the links, you may have come across the name of physicist Hugh Everett. He is the father of
eels frontman E (aka Mark Everett. Hugh Everett is the principal author of many worlds view of quantum physics. Here's E's
interview about life with his father.
Music and science make strange bedfellows. As do everyday life and quantum physics. Beautiful, yet strange.
Cheers!
