Has the web finally gotten trashed

RODE LOG1

As our population and society gets more dependent on computer tech and such extensions as the web, I start to wonder are we in for one helluva crash?

At the Consumer Electronics Show in Vegas they had cars that could drive on just computer. According to demonstrators the vehicle is guided by GPS. Really? GPS is about as accurate at directions as my Aunt . I remember not too long ago Rick and I took an oversized skip loader to Vernal Utah. If we’d have went the way the GPS said to go, we’d have went all the way over to Green River Wyoming . What if the connection can’t be made. What if we as humans are fail to update the data files? Scares the crap out of me. These shoot and forget weapons our military friends use, still have to be verified by visual confirmation, that means a aviator has to go look. By then your looking at someone that wants to kill you,. Bullshit, let me just go shoot the fucker to begin with.

Then there are these foundations like Wikipedia. I think we were better off being stupid in the sticks. If you copied someone else’s trade name at least you had the excuse , shit I didn’t know. Of course there’s all that data that was carved out long before there was a damn internet web thing. If you punch up the ITA you’ll get very little if anything, yet in 1982 the ITA, had independent truckers pulling the key and guess what we went on strike. Got the revenuers off our ass, trucking became deregulated and depending where you fit in here trucking really improved. At least us independents could compete on a level field with the big freight companies. Back then trucks ran by a driver behind the wheel, most were rockabilly hot rodders in a rig, but we took our profession seriously. We drove that truck as if our lives and wallet depended on it, because it did. The truck did not have tattletale devices, or fewer. Oh sure the Sangamo Tachographs was there, but you could fix that thing to read what you wanted. You could tweak the the engine, rebend the spring going to the governor, and be able to fudge on velocity. Not today, that damn spy in the sky, has your ass within 50 feet anywhere on earth,. You can’t even go shit without DOT and CVSA there with the ass wipe,.

Getting back to Wikipedia, I know and you know once the velocity on our gig at Confederate Steele heats up, there will be a ton and a half of folks warming up to us like a long tailed cat looking for a swaller of that cream milk. At which time like so many we’ll just say we never knew you. You wanted nothing to do with us then , suck prick now. No more no less,.

It’s just like a decal on a Harley I saw some time ago, but shortly after SOA got hot. It read, once you hated us, now you want to be one of us. Likewise I’d like to point out to so many, that if they got it a truck brought it. And part of the support team to long haul otr haulers across this nation for nearly 40 damn years has been Dixie Diesel, likewise the support to both all things Hazzard and the springboard for much of the southern lifestyle and beliefs movement has been HazzardAyre. If Wikipedia has their noses joint so be it. Problem is though I’m not so stupid that our Miss fluffy ass in MHI or somebody therefrom, isn’t sticking their busybody noses into something that does not concern them. More over I’d still like the $6,000.00 that the club and I contributed to their galldamn Public access TV thing, then never got to even use it. I want that money back. A topic for another time, but if some people don’t want the club to really start squeezing, if I were them , I’d just stay low and out of our crotch.

But from searches that turn up little, to network crashes, to IP speeds and limited shrinking bandwidth, has the web finally gotten trashed, more over all of it crashed>?

Any mile, see ya’ll at 17:00 on the radio.

Quote of the Day:
Passions are vices or virtues to their highest powers.
--Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
Philippians 2:14-16“Do everything without grumbling or arguing, so that you may become blameless and pure, “children of God without fault in a warped and crooked generation.” Then you will shine among them like stars in the sky as you hold firmly to the word of life. And then I will be able to boast on the day of Christ that I did not run or labor in vain.”
