blokpost, miame compliant.

Maybe it’s not really true, but I can easily see myself yearning to have seen glimpses of the future back in the day. What would I have made of the current TV commercial for the Motorola Droid at the time? It frightens me now but not, possibly, then.




Our boys, doing the Hurt Locker thing during the “Times Square Terror Scare” (even more fun when you say it with Mayor Quimby's voice). What baffles me is the lack of imagination here. Did we not think that eventually the AfPak theater show would head to Broadway or refuse to accept that Predator drones would be deployed stateside?

In any case: the meedjuh and, again, another metonym. The incomparable mrc points out that this term is used thrice on the FAQ section of the "Hells Angels" website (no longer "Web site" as per AP guidelines). This is the kind of intelligence report we desperately need. When I was staring at a Brainetics infomercial, it occurred to me that I have been unencumbered by a lucid thought for three years now. Let alone thinking, but that's another story.

A while ago, the US Air Force, which guarantees "sovereign options" in cyberspace, launched a publicity campaign that included the question: "But who's thinking about tomorrow's headlines?" Are you? I heard a rumor on the Zwitschermaschine that capitalism will end by the year 2051. After that, it's probably The Road for us. But, not to worry, we'll all suffer from Alzheimer's Disease at that point anyway.

So, praise then the oiled motions. In keeping with the spook-thread narrative enveloping my spirits as usual, I will add some freelance, unvetted, non-actionable SIGINT. Darling North Korea has finally gone global and introduced an English term in its latest propaganda efforts: Computer Numerical Control machines! "CNC, towards the world!" Visual evidence found here because we can make everything using the computer program.

Or just try this on the Tube for now if you're still stuck in the Böhmische Dörfer, Bohemians that we may have liked to have been.
