dolariOkay, it's one thing to laugh at me. It's another to stand there in shock, drop my food and crack up beyond belief at me. Thanks for the self-esteem boost, lady. I wrote (Another) letter to McDonald's over this. Sad thing is, all I'll get is a coupon for free food for my inconvenience. I don't even LIKE McDonald's, they're just insanely fast.
So I'm working on the comics (AWFW for the THIRD time, which is looking nice) when suddenly, out of no where, my brain says "You know what could work? An Encyclopedia Galactica. Since travel between civilizations really takes a long time, it might be easier to just say 'Screw it, let's make an encyclopedia of US, and broadcast it through the universe.' And then take all that information, and encode a number to it like a CRC number...and then, if all the civilizations did this, the encyclopedias would send AND receive the data. If the received CRC number is different than the one the encyclopedia currently has it would add any information in the received encyclopedia broadcast to update itself, and make a giant network of shared information across the galaxy that is updated at the speed of light. This would allow the Galactic Encyclopedia to update itself as it received information from the different encyclopedias around the galaxy, either via the source encyclopedia directly, or connect-the-dot style. That would work great wouldn't it?"
Sometimes my brain scares me.
My next paychec should put my bank account back over the $1,000 mark again, so it's time to ask the hard questions:
1) Do I go ahead and wipe out my bank account and pay of a VERY VERY VERY overdue bill? Then allow it to fill up again, pay ANOTHER overdue bill, allow it to fill up again, fix some truck issues, allow it to fill up again, and then get the Big Snip?
or
2) Save the hell out of the cash now, fix the truck when it finally DOES break down, get the Big Chop, THEN pay all my bills (or 2a, save, get laid off, and have a healthy amount of cash to live off of).
I'm up for suggestions....
Nice big thunderstorm last night. VERY nice. Could use some more. :D
