Wal-Mart to Launch Online Music Store
Dteyn writes "I heard on the radio today that Wal-Mart will soon be opening up an online music store to compete with the likes of Apple's iTunes and Napster. According to the radio newsguy, it's expected to be officially announced as early as next week. Looks like this 'digital music' thing is starting to catch on with the bigwigs. Finally."
What if time didn't really flow forward at all? What if it jumped around unsequentially with no pattern. Just events occuring for us to put a time stamp onto, to make us feel like something in this world is happening, when nothing is happening at all. What if we just moved around without the hindrance of what we call "time". All time seems to be is a rationalization of immense movement of the universe and its assets, based on a loose interpretation of a pattern being formed that it follows. This pattern called time. What if there was no pattern? Just things happening. Religion would say it's God that makes things happen, and makes it so. We cannot understand it because our minds are bound to a pattern that all things we experience must be sifted through, called rationalization. But what if we simply threw away this pattern. Just simply look at the events occurring around you, knowing that God had a reason or maybe that things just happen for no reason at all. You cannot ever put a halter on water. Time is a weak attempt at this. The truth is, that the real time, is un-harnessable and incomprehensible. We must only swim through the water, and not try to put a halter on it, to control it. Time is infinite, and unbounded. The true time, that is. Not the time in our minds. When we think time is always the same speed, that is true. One second is always 1.0 seconds long, and so on, but if we are simply interpretting events like I said, who says the events we assume to be happening at an exact predictable constant interval, are not slowing or accelerating in relation to the next system of time? Maybethat is called a dimension. But dimensions in that case would only be division of the universe and all average out to be a single value. Maybe this calue is the interval at which time flows at in our, and every dimension, based on our interpretation of events happening within out dimension. Therefore I think it would caused the destruction of all dimensions if one dimension collided with another, by attempting to rationalize each other's frame of reference. Maybe this is what Einstein meant when he said the universe would be destroyed if we were to break the lightspeed barrier. The light barrier, I reason then, must be the edge of our dimension, and if we attempted to break out of this dimension, the second dimension would either be destroyed trying to find an equilibrium between each other for event frame of references, which could occur, then this change in the two dimensions would set off a change in the next dimension, because the dimensions would stabilize each other and be interconnected to other dimensions. But if this would be so, then dimension would be infinite because TIME is based on events happening at a set interval and since events do not occur at the same interval, infinite dimensions would be created to rationalize this imperfection of vent intervals and therefore extending the universe made up of dimensions to infinity. Bu if there were infinite dimensions and an infinately expanding universe ... no the universe would not be expanding at all the universe is set and will always be the same in property. So this would mean the dimensions are infinately dividing dimensions in the whole universe, because the universe started with onle one dimension that was split infinately time, make them all infinately smaller yet equal, and when these two dimensions would not split, but meld, then they would be the only dimension that is different causing an imbalance, and then the dimension that is different causing an imbalance, and the other dimensions to collide and cause negative infinity on the dimensions shrinking and shrinking the total amount of dimensions down until there is only one dimension in the universe and this would be the standard. The utter perfections of rationality and predictability. It would therefore be perfect within itself. But we know that our dimension is exactly the same as this. So what says that these two entities are exactly the same? Simply another infinite division of an infinatel
They already hire humanoid Clippies, now you'll get the real thing.
Wafe me, my friend.
