Google Glass



Morning glorious.  The sprinklers are working.  They are covering the estate.  The neighbors look on in wonder and envy.  Well. . . maybe not that.  It is a neighborhood of well-manicured lawns.  All they see, I think, is the Jeep that is still sitting in the driveway.  But I am happy for the moment.  I found the leak that was mucking up the system, and yesterday, for only a bunch more money, the repairman came out and fixed it.

"Man, I spent an hour looking for that."

$80.

But now I need not worry if I leave on vacation.  The new lawn will thrive.  Beauty is only skin deep, they say, but just let your skin go and see what comes of that.  Ask The Suntan Lady.

So I've been thinking about Google Glass.  Remember the X-Ray glasses they used to sell in the back of comic books?


Man oh man did I want those things when I was a kid.  I didn't want to see skeletons, though.


Why can't the Google Glass do that?  It would aid in security matters for sure.  You would be able to know at a glance whether or not someone was armed and dangerous.  It only make sense, for god's sake.  Safety First.

And there was another piece of gear I wanted but never ordered.  The Hypno-Coin.


A lot of people think this is how I get models, but it isn't true.  I use these instead.


And what I'm thinking is that Google Glass could definitely benefit from something like this.  You could hypnotize people while seeing through their clothing and be photographing them the whole while, too!  Can you imagine this!  It is my dream-come-true.  

Until Google comes to their senses, I'm going to have to keep trying to get models to watch the television I have in the studio.  It seems to have been working O.K.  


I've never asked for my money back with this whiz-bang product.  If you haven't tried it yet, just get in touch with Elton's in St. Petersburg, Fla.  33733.

    There's a couple to get you started. Have been reading a lot on Deleuze and the "control society" lately. This video is fascinating if you have the time and can forgive the "robo" voice:

  2. Why do you think people bother to write books? Too bad not enough people read them seriously.
