A few things I thought about during my recent summertime sickness...
1) Is world peace achievable without losing individuality? Seems unlikely without an Outer Limits/Watchmen type event, but even then I doubt peace would stand a chance against humanity's ability to fear and hate one another.
2) Did the various U.S. accents evolve from the languages and accents of early European settlers? I'm sure there's been studies, but it makes sense, though there must be other factors involved to explain the variations within each accent.
3) What if I'm Patient Zero in a pandemic that wipes out over 75% of humanity, leaving me with the nickname "Infectious John" in the post-apocalyptic history books? Eat your heart out, Typhoid Mary!
It took a few days , but I beat my summertime sickness of sinus gunk & aches. Thanks for reading my nonsense!
Freak Out,
JLH
P.S. Obviously I wasn't Patient Zero...this time. ;)
