Are We Any Closer to Being Able to Control the Weather
Look at pictures of our planet the way it was 4 billion years ago. A hunk of rock in space. Today and look at everything we have been able to create from this rock.

Wrong Number Marketing
Over the years it has gotten harder and harder to find new effective ways to market your wares. With direct mail you may be lucky enough to get maybe a quarter of a percent positive response. If you use a little creativity and send a postcard with a picture of someplace like Hawaii and a message that looks hand written then maybe you'll get a 2 or 3 percent positive response. Blanket an entire zip code, sending out thousands of these post cards to maybe get 2 or 3 sales. Read

Friends, not Part of My Destiny to Ever Have One

Big Promises and Little Returns
This is what Web hosting is today. They promise enormous amounts of web space, unlimited bandwidth and a whole bunch of other things that nobody will ever use. How many of us have a site that needs over 1 gig of space or how about 10+ gigs of bandwidth each month. Then they offer us the ability to host all of our sites under one account, unlimited MYSQL databases, unlimited email accounts, scripts, blogs, and a host of other things that most people will never use unless maybe we are all the size of a walmart or something. They all promise us everything under the sun these days but when it comes time for us to get these things they disappear very quickly and we have to submit a ticket that somebody in India might answer Read

You Get What you Pay for
If you want a Starbuck's Quality cup of coffee then it is going to cost more than a quarter. The same goes with hiring of employees. Do we expect a great one if you are only willing to pay minimum wage. Look at shoes as an example.

Are We Destined to Become Robots
When you go through the drive through at a nearby fast food restaurant do you want a robot to take your order? Wouldn't you rather talk to a human that greets you like a person? Do we want our children to address us as yes sir and ma'am? Does anybody actually want to date the computer from the original Star Trek series? What about something more than marriage? Are these things to become our destiny? Will robots have personality someday? There are no answers to this phenomena only a lot more questions. How far is this to go? What will become of the human touch? Do we want robots to ask us how our day has went? With robots will anybody ever stand out from the crowd? Will there ever be a Purple Cow with robots? Read
