What is left to say? I thought awarding the Nobel Peace Prize to the two people who are most responsible for the eruption of global terrorism this century (Jimmy Carter and Yasser Arafat) was the absolute rock bottom and the Nobel Foundation could never find a way to disgrace itself further.

They got a shovel and began to dig.

And at the bottom of that hole was Al Gore and his now disgraced crock-u-mentary “An Inconvenient Truth.” Along with the “Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change” (notice it is inter”GOVERNMENTAL” panel, not inter”SCIENTIFIC” panel, which tells you everything you need to know about the IPCC), Al Gore has succeeded in disgracing not only the Academy Awards, The Emmy Awards, but now the Nobel Foundation.

In my previous article I ruminated about him faking a Tony Award. I forgot that he was in the running the disgrace the Nobel Foundation to the point of making it a mockery.

What else is left to say? Not much except so long and thanks for all the fish.

WE APOLOGIZE FOR THE INCONVENIENCE

Oishii!!!

Yes! It is time for another update. And yes, there is some text on the back of this picture.

And translated:

Everybody, thank you for viewing! I’ll introduce this week’s delicious recipe. Please make sure to keep this one cold!

*Skinless chicken breast - 2, cut in halves
*Soumen (a kind of japanese noodle) - 10 oz.
*Watercress - 1/2 cup cut into small strips
*Turnip - 1/2 cup, thinly sliced
*Shiitake (japanese mushrooms) - 1/2 cup
*Chicken stock - 1/3 cup
*Sake (japanese rice wine) - 2 tbsp.
*Sugar - 1/2 tsp.
*Ocean-bottom crab - one

In a small saucepan, stir together 1/3 cup water, chicken stock, sake, and sugar. Chill it until it becomes cold. Grill the chicken breast on both sides for about 8 minutes, and then chill. Boil the noodles for about 3 minutes, and then run under cold water until chilled. Mix the watercress, turnips, and mushrooms into the soumen. Slice the chicken thinly and arrange on top of the soumen mix. Just before you serve, put the crab in the sauce and pour over the noodles generously.

Go go Oishii (”delicious”) Chef!”

Now some research.

A possible second trailer?

Lots of stuff happening. About time too.

With Sony going commercial with their first OLED Televisions this week I got to reading about Organic LED technology. This got me to thinking. What if the substrate used to help hold the organic layers in place were not plastic but human flesh?

Think of it. We already have implantable chips. We have found ways to fuse neurons with computer circuitry and pass signals back and forth. We can grow human ears of the backs of laboratory mice. We can transplant skin and organs. Why not push the envelope and see if OLED technology can fuse with true organic material like human skin?

Imagine a tattoo that can be programmed! One moment it is a wizard, the next it is a lion, the next it is the physics equations for that big exam. Mix in some extra circuitry and programming and have it connected to an implanted chip and presto! Mood Flesh! Angry? Your OLED tattoo flashes red in anger. Sad? A low pulsing blue tone. Talk about the human cuttlefish!

Just an interesting thought experiment. Do you think it is possible? Drop me a note.
