Friday’s Best Conversation Topics

This week has outdone most of the weeks for 2011. The news stories and opinions that surfing around will bring to your attention could sustain you in conversations until 2012. Seriously. I’m not going to bore you with tales of the Casey Anthony trial (guilty on lesser charges) and the surprising release from jail, Facebook adds Skype video chat (small twirling of fingers in air), the fun conversations this weekend will center around these stories:

- Finding out you’re an asshole from an online dating service. OK Cupid member Sam Biddle finds a woman’s blog that has a personal review of himself and his interactions with another member of the site. Quite a terrible way to find out you’re a jerk. Time for some reputation repair, right?

- The Hobbit. Just in case it slipped your mind, the movies are scheduled for release December 2012. Yes, there will be a part one and two for Peter Jackson’s vision of J.R.R. Tolkein’s monolithic piece of fantasy. Bilbo, wait for me!

- Atlantis astronauts to recycle pee. Using a method called ‘forward osmosis’ brave space-persons will be able to pee in a bag and drink water later. Don’t be shocked, this recycling has been going on for a while, albeit using different methods. The international Space Station uses a system of recycling called the ‘Water Recovery System’ to reuse body fluid waste (pee). Well, you’d have to shoot me into space to want to drink any of that, I’m sure.

- Create a secure internet alongside the existing internet is the way to go. And I agree. if there was something like (dot secure) .secure and you had to prove that you were you, then safety online wouldn’t be such an issue. This idea would certainly change the things we do online and how we’d do them.

- Win A Baby. Now this is a lottery! Open to individuals and couples, straight, gay or elderly, anyone can win the top prize of $25,000.00 of fertility treatments. WTF?!?

Have a great weekend.
