I realized this morning at 3 am that I am a genius. No, I didn’t put on the crown and robe again. That scares the dog. (You don’t want to scare a 90-pound dog at 3 am.) And besides, Catherine the Great, Ruler of Moodle-dom refuses to return them.
What made me realize my genius was reading the latest (September 23rd) Daily where a diagram of networks is posted and CONTAGION is shown as one of the permutations. Does anyone remember (c’mon…humor me…) my posting on Contagious Connections (Invasion of the Body Snatchers and all of that)?! It is actually a real-live theory taught up by someone who apparently knew his stuff.
Also, I read Tom Whyte’s blog (can’t find the link right now) where he has the “connect the dot” motif. I haven’t seen anyone use my “Galaxies and Connections” thing yet that I plan on blogging about. But it’s pretty clear I’m a lot smarter than I thought I am to think of this same stuff even though it may be several generations late. Ahem…
Therefore, I am now claiming all ideas, thoughts, and concepts as my own. Since I can create my own knowledge, apparently, you can’t tell me I can’t. (I would say something pithy like “nah nah” here but since I am at this very moment “glocalizing” my little heart out I don’t want to do that in case “nah nah” is some obscene phrase in some other language and I start some kind of holy war or something).
So if you have any “new” ideas, just assume that I have already thought of them and send me money. (This includes the “Everyone on the internet who disagrees with me is an evil so-and-so”, so don’t even try it, Catherine…) It will save all of us a lot of trouble.
