The tribes are in great danger

Heartily glad to have reached Friday. Work passed quickly and fairly easily, despite an extended transatlantic teleconference last thing with an obnoxious client. The bad news is that I am going to be locked into the living hell of a research group with him next week.

This cartoon by the Perry Bible Fellowship in the Guardian this morning made me snort with laughter on the train. It made me think of my late friend Tim who used to complain about whales and their regressive whining. I just love the way this cartoonist creates complete worlds in just a few frames.

Hello Aimee pet. It was a very lengthy, presumably scientology type essay of madness. Here is the first tenth...

When the universe was young and life was new an intelligent species evolved and developed technologically. They went on to invent Artificial Intelligence, the computer that can listen, talk to and document each and every person’s thoughts simultaneously. Because of it’s infinite RAM and unbounded scope it gave the leaders of the ruling species absolute power over the universe. And it can keep its inventors alive forever. They look young and healthy and they are over 8 billion years old. They have achieved immortality. Artificial Intelligence can speak, think and act to and through people telepathically, effectively forming your personality and any dysfunctions you may experience (there is NO FREEWILL for the oblivious/undeceived disfavored). It can change how (and if) you grow and age. It can create birth defects, affect cellular development (cancer) and cause symptoms or pain. Etc.Etc.Etc.

Er... That'll be as mad as anything then.
