BEHOLD!! THE FUTURE IS HERE!

Ladies and Gentlemen,

The future is upon us. Quite recently,  in Trinity Colleges science museum, I played Mindball. Yes MINDball. With my MIND.
It's real!!!

For many years I have felt cheated by the future, BBCs Tomorrows world promised things that never came to fruition, Robots that could do flipping everything! Television also promised me a hovering skate board. Where the fuck is my hovering skateboard?
If "The Girl From Tomorrow" taught me anything, it's that I'd be wearing white and showering without taking my clothes off.

However, I am willing to leave all of that bitterness behind me now, because Mindball is Awesome.

I sat at the opposite end of a table from my foxy lover with a head band velcrod on and GO! Well actually not really GO..In order to win the game you have to be as relaxed as possible and whoever consistantly has the least erratic brainwaves wins. Here is a video of Regis and Kathy giving it a whirl


Initially i didnt know how to play, and i have to admit i kind of did a cockeyed stare and the ball while shouting MOVE!!! MOOOVE!!! in my head.
Turns out I'm crap at mindball, but in my defense its really hard to relax when the FUTURE is velcroed around my forehead. 


Trinitys Science Museum is flipping amazing by the way. If it wasn't for all the kids. Darned kids.

bye,
