Brand New

 

                                                    Brand New

     Remember learning to read? Well, we're going to start all over again, only this

 time it's going to be a level up. What's that mean? It's learn as you go - that's the

 fastest and best and, actually the only way to do it. If you have any questions, just

 ask google assistant or Siri if you have iPhone.

     In a rush in the morning, I laid my Tracfone on the table and forgot to turn off

 the  Google Assistant. Spoke out loud, "Darn I totally forgot what I was doing. What

 in the  world was I trying to do?" "You were writing a story about new technologies

 signaling  basic changes in our society Billy!" "What," I jumped and turned. "That's

 what you  were saying before Billy!" 

     'It couldn't be. It just couldn't be. Too much TV. Too much Internet. I needed to

 get back in touch with some of my old friends. My retirement was comfortable, 

 sure. But, it lacked social dynamics. I was talking to my cell phone!" 

     So what if? What if the new future held an entire electronic being reality? Why

 not? Were flesh and blood really that important for the development of

 sentient beings? Check your batteries next time you go in for a new SIM

 card? "Ouch, my foot just got a cramp!" 

     What if all this has already happened and we're just now catching on? Imagine

 an electronic girl, all gorgeous lights and sounds going "beep beep" in a way you

 just couldn't ignore - had to know better - a total mystery of what was to come -

 pleasures as yet unimagined - innocence of the mind. Sharing data. "I hardly 

know  you and here we are already sharing data."

     The infinite reaches of creation beckon us forward. Others are waiting for us to 

start their days. Let there be light. Let's separate the good from the bad, what helps 

from what doesn't. A clear purpose. Enough challenge, but not too much. Striking 

hard at the heart of the enemy. Making a better world. Attacking lies, exposing evil. 

Allowing the fresh air of understanding into our world. We're here doing just that...

     In America, if you're unhappy with a president or his administration, you simply 

don't vote for him the next term. If it gets really bad and he's guilty of 

unconstitutional actions, you can impeach him. Here in our brand new world, we 

can mourn his passing along with so many of his confederates, and begin to 

replace them all as, soon as possible, with others, more helpful and of higher 

purpose toward our fine nation of course. The rest fills in very quickly and 

as efficiently as we would send in a substitute teacher for someone who has fallen 

ill. The faster and more smoothly, the better. 

     Several new cast have been substituted in many of our key roles today. 

Hopefully, these are to your liking and, again hopefully, they also enjoy their new 

occupations. It is so very important to have backups in today's stressful and 

technically demanding world. We thank you for your patience.  

    Halloween starts tomorrow night. Cool late October evening. Hard for kids with 

the cold and damp. Still, the magic of the holiday comes through and makes it a 

night to remember. Sweet chocolate and flavored candies echo the fine Vermont country. There's music and of course new hope in the air. We're on stage 

tomorrow night - opening night for our new year 11,041. Wow!!
