Sefish Kids, Mind Control

Economy in the news this morning... one story is about how the American and Chinese stock markets may be beginning a 'correction', or a crash as it is known to by you and I. And another story on how consumer confidence is still high. So either the American economy is about to implode on itself or it is going as strong as ever...pending which story you want to read last.

An interesting story about today's kids being more self-centered than ever. I'm guessing if you are in my age range (35-45), you are like me and not disagreeing. It was fairly recently when I detailed how the college kids these days will do the minimum required work to get by. And now it is becoming more noticed. Kids these days get everything handed to them, nothing is ever their fault and they can do no wrong. Why would they turn out to be self-centered, all about me type persons?

First there was cloning and now there is animal control. Chinese scientists have implanted electrodes in a pigeon and can control it's flight. Soon we will all have a chip implanted so that the government can control us. Things will be better then.

Apple's latest, greatest gadget, Apple TV, is being delayed. It will allow people to take their digital content and stream it on the internet. There is no mention as to what any of the possible delays may be, but I'm guessing it is because Apple is developing some pay-to-use interface to use their $300 device.

Claims that the remains of Jesus and his family have been made. Of course extraordinary claims are often made and then later to be found false. I'm thinking the same may happen here...and if not, will really set the religious folks a reeling. Definitive proof that Jesus did not rise to heaven, got married and had a family? Sure is a different ending then I've heard so much about in the Bible.
