as If this Were real

Let’s talk about the future of human evolution. As we continue to modify our environment to suit our needs, we push our selves further away from the forces of evolution. We can no longer continue to change to survive when we no longer need to change. So then how do we progress into the future? Easy homosapien 2.0. Just as we changed the Internet from being about what we can find to what we can make it, we too will turn evolution from what we are into what we can make ourselves to be.

We have developed technology capable of editing the very code that defines us. Think about that for a moment. To borrow a phrase: Human being have been jail broken. We are now capable of running any code we see fit on the human operating system. So now, if we want, we can change the way we look, hair color, height, eyes, nose, all without surgery. We can take that idea further and change the way our mind works, our personality, or even our memory. The possibilities are only limited by the desires of the individual.

Of course this is all a bit fictitious… Right now. While science has given us the tool and the source code we still don’t have a programmer. In other words, we have no idea how genetic code works. It’s extremely complex and detailed. It will be many years before we figure out what changes to the base pairs of our genetic code will give us the green eyes we want. However when we do create the first manual to coding your own human being, the possibilities will be endless!

Personally I would like a better memory for detail in my past. I would love to remember everything. Beyond that I don’t know maybe immortality/perpetual youth. It’s hard to say though. I will be very different by the time they figure this out. Perhaps I will die before then. Oh well here’s hoping they figure it out soon!

Jokes…

Days after Osama was killed, Yahoo stated that the 7th most searched phrase was “who is Osama Bin Laden?”. This search phrase came in just below “where is Afghanistan?” and “what is yahoo?”.

Apple recently was the subject of controversy when it was discovered that their popular phone was recording location data of its users. Apple CEO, Steve Jobs, responded to the controversy by stating that “it’s not a big deal” and if you have a problem with it, he knows where you live…

Alright so I’m listening to the new Foo Fighters album Wasting Light. Let’s break it down shall we?

Bridge Burning Great opening. Classic Dave Grohl screaming. Classic FF

Better Off Very FF but has a cleaner grunge feel to it.

Eh… I’m bored of writing about this. So far the album is excellent. It feels new but it’s distinctly FF.

What else is going on in the world? Osama is dead, that’s pretty good. I for one was not a fan of his. I heard that there was a surprising number of teenagers who didn’t know who he was. Yahoo recently reported that the number 7 most searched topic was “Who is Osama bin laden?”, just after number 6 “who is Barak Obama?”.

Rope… Good song. I like the echo effect at the opening. But it’s over now. Oh wait noitsnot! Oh Dave you got me again.

Moving on. We recently elected a Conservative majority into office. I think that’s great because any majority government is better than no government. Apparently Stephen Harper is in trouble though. He campaigned on a radio show on election day. Supposedly telling people they should vote conservative like he is going to. The penalty for such behavior could be jail time and huge fines. I don’t think it will stick though, we will see.

Dear Rosemary, I’m not a fan of that favor. Herbs (pronounced ‘erbs) in general aren’t my cup if tea. Song us good though. Like the strong bass emphasis.

White limo?! What the hell?

Yay Fir blog-walking!

Arlandria! Mmmmmm harmonies. I can’t give this song enough.

Anyway! What else is new… Speaking of politics, apparently NDP leader isn’t much the perfect guy either. I mean have you seen the pictures of him with hair and in a star trek uniform. Shudder yeah wait hold on… There now it’s old news.

Alright that’s probably enough for today.

Lates!

So. I’ve started to practice yoga. Hot Flow yoga to be more precise. That’s were they stuff 50 people into a small dance studio designed to heat up to close to 40 degrees Celsius. Then they tell you to lie down, sit-up, stand, lunge, pushup, arch your back, stand up, sit down, lunge, stretch, lunge, stretch, push up, lunge, stretch, sit-down, sit up, and finally lie down. Of course the they give all of these maneuvers names but I cant remember them to save my life. Once you finish you are completely soaked in sweat head to toe and you have (so I’m told) burned over 500 calories.

To be honest I really enjoy doing it. I think the process is both challenging and cleansing. By the end you are exhausted yet rested. Beat yet at peace it’s wonderful!

My advice: try it out but make sure you give it a real chance don’t cut yourself short.
