I just thought you all should know that I am quite prone to spoonerisms. I not only inject them into my speech, but I often have to correct my spelling as I’m typing out a story. I don’t think it’s any sort of mental or visual dyslexia. I just tend to rush from my present thought to the next one and hope my words tumble out in the right order so people can actually understand them. Most of the time it works out, but sometimes the letters bounce like pairs of dice and wobble to the wrong ends. It’s a funny thing.
Do any of you all have some vocabularic quirk?
On the sipflide, this article caught my eye the other day:
Pentagon to Merge Next-Gen Binoculars With Soldiers’ Brains
I’ve been keeping watch over all these science reports about brain implants that let people control computers, and now we’ve got binoculars that’ll get stuck to the ocular nerve, and video cameras that help blind people “see.” Cyborgia, here we come. I’m torn between wanting to know where to sign for the enhancement surgery, and wanting to keep my body pure (if puny compared to tech boosts) so I won’t become open to things like computer viruses and people hacking into my brain. Weird to be seeing things like this become a reality.
I see that smile.
