The start of a New School Year

This post requires the reader to think about new Cosmological Theories, M Theory and Chaos Theory.  It is written to sound silly, but yet is very serious at the same time.  We should all realize that those Golden Days of youth, when we are/were students, does in fact alter our internal make up for ever.  This old man was once young too, and fondly remembers those Golden Days, when certain choices were made.  However, the choices made are now past and we are required to live with the consequences of our past actions and decisions, despite the sometimes felt regret that if our choices would have been different another possible world would be today’s real world.  We live in the current real world and we should note that, because of events in our past, our possible futures were narrowed down to one, which is our current world-reality.  Our teachers, friends and lovers left some imprint on us way back then and altered our present and future forever. It is also true that today’s events and choices alter forever our future and narrow, in some sense, our future to only a few possible worlds.

Now that School is or soon will be starting again this post is apropos and should serve as a warning to students.  As a sometime Philosophy lecturer I know that weird stuff goes on in a Philosophy class, but I heard one today about a Physics teacher (from MIT or Harvard, I cannot remember which) that tops them all.

It seems that some know it all, arrogant and potentially intimidating student raised his hand in class to challenge the professor with a question.  The Physics professor, an amateur inventor of sorts, immediately aimed a machine gun located at the end of his finger nail at the student and shot him with about 50 billion sub-atomic sized bullets traveling at near the speed of light, which went clean through the student, though some remained, forever altering his atomic make-up. The professor has made this technology available to all his colleagues in every College and University, so if you are one of those students who likes to show off to your classmates that you are smart enough to challenge the professor, you should take warning that your professor just may neutrinolize you altering your future forever.  And you thought Philosophy was weird.
