Discussion with Mother Nature.

Faithful followers -

I did get a chance to sit down with Mother Nature.  Apparently, she got rid of her Razr phone and got an iPhone.  Turns out there's an app for that.  It's called quake.  She explains it like this: She was walking down the street and had just downloaded the quake app.  She clicked on Haiti for the country and she bumped into someone causing her to drop her phone.  When the phone hit the ground and bounced, the accelerometer reacted setting off an earthquake in Haiti.  It was simply an accident.


I said, "Gimme that that thing."  I yanked it from her hand, clicked on Haiti and gently shook the phone.  Sure enough, the aftershocks reverberated through the region.  Man, the power in these hand held "smart phones" is amazing.  I can not believe these kinds of toys are available to mere mortals.

We had a good laugh.  Next we sat back, ate some unleavened bread, drank some wine and lit the toke pipe.

These unfortunate occurrences are not intentionally being mean or cruel.  Now that we know how powerful the apps can be, I have asked Mother Nature to wear her phone around her neck at all times.  Hey, I get it - she's tired of spending every waking moment in the office and is now telecommuting to work making use of mobile technology....
