Dogs Do the Deed

KLM Royal Dutch Airlines adopted a clever and fun way to retrieve items from their planes. The dog appears quite happy to be part of this amusing method to quickly recover items.

Butterfly World - Coconut Creek, Florida
















This bird posed.




I took these photos at a beautiful spot in Coconut Creek, Florida: Butterfly World. It has beautiful butterflies (of course), birds, and blooming plants. It's a visual splendor. If you ever get a chance to visit, you'll have a great time examining the beauty it offers.

Monday Makes for a Mighty Struggle

I had a very strenuous and busy weekend, making this Monday morning a struggle, at least an internal one. My project for the day is to write another chapter for my new science fiction novel, Morn. Morn the dystopian country that exists far into the future, created to block the rest of the world because the other countries always engaged in war, constant war, just the opposite of my first novel: 2186 The Last Mission.

Both novels take place in the future. I wondered why this morning, about the propensity to write about the future. A simple answer occurred to me. I like to speculate about which direction humankind will take. How we will deal with future situations, and how technology will affect us.

Take a minute to think about how computers changed the world. Think about how the World Wide Web developed from the internet, which DARPA developed because the United States military needed a defense system to combat asymmetrical warfare. This information came from my thesis: The Internet and Its Impact.

Think about how the world came to know one another better using the web. Now, I have friends, at least chat friends, from all over the world. Maybe one day, we will meet in person.
