Bernanke is a genius
If he keeps it up, maybe we'll get to be #7 on this list
It's time to reboot America
And this is just awesome/hilarious

Accelerating into the Future
For those who might be interested, you can view the final term paper of my undergraduate career at Georgia Tech here. Once there, click the down arrow on the right side of the screen to download.
Topics of the paper include: the technological singularity, nanotechnology, the Internet, artificial intelligence, the monetary system, and machine automation.
I welcome any and all comments and questions.

December 21, 2012
On the winter solstice of the year 2012, our sun will align with the center of the galaxy. This astronomical event occurs only once every 26,000 years.
The wobble of the earth will also complete its 26,000 year cycle as well. And the magnetic field of the earth will shift.
More change will occur in the next 4 years than in the previous thousands of years.
That which has no integrity will collapse. It will be a time of chaos, and out of that chaos will emerge a new order. What order that is we must decide individually and collectively.

No more school
Well, done with college.
B.S. in History, Technology, & Society from Georgia Tech.
Honestly, I would say the majority of it was a waste of time. Rote memorization of meaningless facts and data, busy work, and bullshit papers.
But I did learn how to write, met a lot of cool people, had the occasional light bulb moment.
Based on my experience at just one of thousands of colleges, I would say that there is abundant room for improvement in the way we educate. Young people should be allowed to explore their interests freely, not forced to study irrelevant topics that don't interest them. Why do we retain this method?
Of course, I am content with my decision to earn a degree from this university. I will have better job opportunities and "social respect".
As for now, I have no idea what I want to do. Some money in the bank for a while.
Maybe I'll start a business helping the older generation learn how to get the most out of their iPhones. But I'll probably have to get some sort of job until there is significant revenue from that.
I've got some real thinking to do.

Worry!
In light of the recent economic downturn, many people are losing their jobs and getting laid off.
Could you be next? You never know, they could fire you any day!
In order to deal with this uncertainty, I have one suggestion: Worry!
Worrying is more useful than you might think. Worrying has helped many employees keep their jobs. It raises your stress level, and you can use that to make your boss feel sorry for you.
Worrying is a very valuable, productive activity. My advice is to set aside at least 15 minutes a day to worry.
This may sound hard at first. You're probably thinking to yourself, "I've already got enough on my daily To Do list. Now I have to add worrying?"
If 15 minutes sounds intimidating, start by worrying for just one minute a day. Then you can work your way up to 3 minutes, 7 minutes, and eventually 15 minutes.
With hard work and determination, you can climb your way up to the status of a full-fledged worry-wart. Now get worrying!
