“We view ourselves as separate from the cosmos, and separate from each other. The truth is, we are a continuum. One line of code in an enormously complex computational system.”–Gray Scott
Let’s just hope that code isn’t corrupt. I have my doubts.

“I tell you, we are here on earth to fart around, and don’t let anyone tell you different.”–Kurt Vonnegut
I always knew Kurt Vonnegut was a class guy. As for the kid in the cartoon? I think that’s an 8-year-old Benny Hill.

“Have you ever noticed you never get laid on Thanksgiving? I think it’s because all the coats are on the bed.”–George Carlin
Or in my house, because all our dogs are on the bed. Drive safely and enjoy your turkey.

“For thousands of years, billions of people have found meaning in playing virtual reality games. In the past, we have called these virtual reality games ‘religions’.”–Yuval Noah Harari
Geez, I’m already self-absorbed enough with two blogs and a podcast. Why would I need to bother (with) that guy?

“The Universe is under no obligation to make sense to you.”–Neil deGrasse Tyson
The universe? Really? I’m still trying to make sense of Twin Peaks, and keep track of how much time is left on the parking meter. Don’t talk to me about the universe.
I am trying to make sense of the future at www.seekingdelphi.com.

“No serious futurist deals in prediction. These are left for television oracles and newspaper astrologers.”–Alvin Toffler.
And stock market predictions are the province of charlatans–and economists. For cogent discussions of what the future might be, and all the issues it may entail, be sure to visit my futurist blog and podcast at www.seekingdelphi.com.

“I am patient with stupidity but not with those who are proud of it.”–Edith Sitwell
Unfortunately, there are all too many willing and able, not to plead stupidity, but to flat out flaunt it. And there are also lawyers, lots of lawyers. And lots of work for lawyers.

“I’m sure if Shakespeare were alive today, he’d be doing classic guitar solos on YouTube.”–Peter Capaldi
Yeah…um….NO! I doubt it. Shakespeare had his anachronisms, but that’s pushing it. As for the animals in my household, well, they’ll have to be satisfied with Tales of a Veterinary Spouse. But my Seeking Delphi podcasts are indeed now on YouTube, as well as iTunes. All the subscription links are below. Way below. Below the embedded videos of the first three podcasts. Sorry, no funny cat pictures–this stuff is too important to get flippant. Our future depends on it.
