Spread the American Republic

I do not believe in war. I do not believe that there should ever be an excuse for blood-shed. I do not believe that one nation, or race, is better than another.

I do believe that the concept of “Republic” will spread and encompass most the Earth.

I am about to tell you why;

It became inevitable, the moment the walls came down after the Cold War.

Naturally, by design, it is the most attractive place in all civilization. It is in league with the only other two true republics in human history; the Venetian Republic and, the early Roman republic. It is the third evolutionary phase in the concept of “Republic”.

It bears promise of more freedom and potential higher quality of life. The mass exodus of immigrants from other countries into the United States should be used as a gauge.

The decrease in the literacy rating should also be a good indicator of this immigration. The speed, at which literacy went down, paralleled the short period in which illegal aliens, as well as legal applicants were given full entrance and acceptance into the American fold. Thanks to the Bush administration, we must educate and cultivate the humbled masses. All at once. Bush, opened the flood gates, and allowed a deluge to pour through.

Immigration itself is an indicator of world popularity.

Eventually, this inflow of immigration would have to be balanced by an equal outflow. As a mass of people grows, it spreads. Our “national” identity would have to naturally give way to a new “world” identity. A “New World Order” would have to develop in a natural evolutionary way. Popularity growth.

From Bookworm to Geek-in-training

The blog Tabloid Cover I have spent my entire adult life as a "bookworm", who loved history mainly. But, within the last two months, I have transformed into a "Geek-in-Training". Considering, I have read eleven books - thick books - on such subject matter as; XHTML, CSS, PHP, Java script, DHTML, web design, etc.. Not to mention, it has been compulsory to also obtain necessary software and, then, study the tutorials, forums, etc., on how to implement it's use. The vary act of posting to a forum requires a little fore-thought and observation. If you ask something in the wrong way - Minus the correct jargon - or, at the wrong time of day, you, risk being ignored, talked to rudely, or made to feel unwelcome by their intonation. Learning the etiquette is definitely requisite.

Have I mentioned the time consumption? The black hole of my geek training, swallows all time day and night and, begins to alienate friends and family. All I seem to do now is run around town, searching for that must-have text that I can't wait to arrive from Amazon. Every conversation, regardless the subject matter, somehow tangents off into a primer on something geek related.

How freakin' cool is this ! Each key on this keyboard is actually a minature screen, that's right, a screen. It literally changes the image it renders depending on the software you have active. All the relative keyboard shortcuts for the software are actually rendered on the keys of your keyboard. I have got to have this one when it gets released ! Check it out Optimus keyboard

All Eyes Look toward London

Tragically, it is completely Innocent civilians, such as children, who have been struck. Sadly, those responsible, probably feel like they have accomplished something. But, little do they know that an intelligent and civilized world, is only more painfully aware of the depth of their ignorance, and the disgust of their existence. What could possibly compel someone to kill the innocent. An attack on all things military or governmental, would at least have some remote iota of reason than what they have done.
Is there not at least one person amongst them that can grasp the inevitable response they will get from their acts. They are binding, motivating, and bringing down upon their own heads, a much more developed world. Their only record in history will be that of mere ignoble murderers. Something disgusted throughout eternity.
