The bad.

Last week, I absolutely started hating some technological revolutions and questioning whether technology is actually good.

Story on how this was started:

In September my dad bought a new car, it had power everything etc. Our old one had manual everything etc.
Last Saturday I think it was, I was inside the car when my parents were at Farm Boy I think. Anyways, it was a bit stuffy inside so I tried to open up my window, it wouldn't budge. So, I unlock the car without realizing that the security system had already gone on (it goes on 2 minutes after the car is locked), and then BAM! The car's security was beeping at full throttle and I couldn't turn it off (apperently it shuts off 2 minutes later). Later that day, my dad told me that everything requires either the key or the engine to be on.

So, is technology a good thing, I mean there should be a manual override of some sort to turn off the freakin' beeping. Anyways, if a thief is trying to break into your car, what good will two minutes of beeping do? I was standing there outside next to the car but no one was looking. This is why somethings should be re-engineered/designed, I mean I was locked inside my own freakin' car (if I unlocked or opened the door, the car would've started going crazy but I could still get out), I could've suffocated to death.

And the hockey season has started once again:
The Sens are 2-0 already with 2 wins against the Leafs. Gerber's playing in net was decent. By locking Heatley in a 6 year $45 Million contract, they're sure to keep Spezza as well.

The NFL season:
Dallas will win.

T.V.:
This year, Air Farce will go live.
For the first year, I'm actually not looking forward to any specific television show at all. Almost every show will just make the same jokes, have the same endings, no suspenseful parts because it's too obvious what will happen. That new show with the guy that played Frasier seems pretty decent but I haven't watched it yet.

Now some optical illusions:
I agree with this one:
