Possibilities I have lived in a exciting piece of time, being a baby boomer and growing up in the sixties. It was an era of mechanical technology in the United States of America. Farming changed with the World and farms grew in size and versatility with displaced people moving to big towns and cities. We went from two row planters to sixteen row planters. One hundred or two hundred acres per farm to two or three thousand acres per farm, on the average. We've went from eighty bushels of corn per acre to two hundred forty bushels per acres with no irrigating needed. The Worlds population has exploded and one of the ways to feed the population is synthetic foods. Examples- Milk made from distilled soybeans, cheese made from soybeans and by products. Meat production that takes grains that a human can eat will slowly go out of economical feasibility. Instead I can someday see alternative crops produced to provide needed protein. Example.- Variety of a Garbanzo Bean, or Russian Thistle, planted in the winter, grown and cut by early summer. Dried in the field until the moisture content is forty percent. Put into vats to ferment with a special bacteria. Heated to capture the alcohol for fuel. The remaining product is put into a artificial digester and when it becomes ninety percent soluble is distributed to special silos that are one hundred feet in height. Inside the silos are mindless mammal tissue masses that grow to fill the silos. When the mass reaches a certain height, a door at the bottom is opened to harvest the bottom third of the mass. The tissue mass slides to the bottom and continues to grow. The process takes one pound of dry matter digested product to grow into five pounds of a human digestible product. The product is ground, packaged, and sold as a protein burger. Sound simple until some biocenologest creates a super cell gastric bacteria for better fermentation, and wipes out all mammals in the World due to inflammation of the Ileum, causing Ileus, inducing a slow and painful death. Today that sounds like one big whopper. But in the future it might become a reality. Who knows? |
| I'm at an age when I should realize that there are certain limitations that one must face! So I have finally decided, (sigh) I'm never going to be an opera singer. Everything else is still a possibility and could happen in the future. Let's hope that's in the near future!! |
| So I had a dream I won the Powerball Lottery! I was soo excited looking at my winning numbers, realizing they matched! So excited that the dream woke me up! Then I hear my wife talking in her sleep about all the things she wants to buy ant the cruise ship she'd like to spend a year on! WOW! She must have seen my dream and is already planning. Can you be too connected? |
| As a person becomes older he starts looking back in life and wonders what if anything he will be remembered by! As a child will he be remembered as being a smart, obedient kid? Not me! Self centered was I and none to smart. As a young man I was just another working stiff! Even more so because I hadn't studied to get good grades as a kid and manual jobs is what I did. As a family man I focused more on my job then my family and did not excel in that either. In my later years I've enjoyed improving my mind and writing stories but I feel I'll never be good enough or focused enough to have something published! The other day on Facebook someone asked the question, If you had something to say on your Tombstone, what would you have written? Good Question! After thinking about this I thought of something that would be about as honest an answer as any answer could be! HE DABBLED |
| Have you ever had an an idea for a story, wrote it down and thought, that's really good! Then you post it and think, why did I ever write it first person singular? What was I thinking!! |
| Many times I feel I have nothing to say in my Blog on a given day and therefor say nothing. Today it was brought to my attention a Blog a friend of mine has been writing that I knew nothing about. It has in depth philosophical questions guided by American and Mid American virtues and is a very good read. The Blog can be found by typing in your search page on your computer, mhuenemann.blogspot.com I hope you enjoy as much as I did. |
| You never, ever, tell others of your crimes,unless they are so big as to be incapable of concealment, and then you describe them as policy or statecraft. |
