Bedford Gazette Weekend (Newspaper) - November 6, 2010, Bedford, Pennsylvania 2 a saturday amp sunday november 6 amp 7,2010�? Bedford Gazette weekend Bedford a. Welcome to the Normal future it s the year 2010 so i guess there s no fooling ourselves any longer. We re living in the future. A half Century ago it was fun to look in the copies of popular science that my dad left around the House to see what the future was going to be like. Jet packs. Personal helicopters. Pills that provided All the nutrition we d Ever need. Funny thing. Looking Back at the Way we used to look Forward there were some things that the prognosticators never guessed. Like the fact that men now Cook and change diapers. All those pictures of what the future was going to look like still showed men going off to work and then coming Home to read the paper while women did All the cooking and maybe working As secretaries at least until they got married. Well we May live in a world with a big space station in the sky and in one sense my Home is just like that cartoon the Jet sons because our dog Toby the Collie exercises himself on the Treadmill. But mostly the Best thing about the future is that it s so Normal. I mean think about it. I get my television from a satellite dish that s pointed at the sky which nobody thinks twice about but it does t change the fact what i m watching is the football game. Microwaves Are used to prepare food real fast and we be had them so Long they seemed old fashioned but what we Cook is Plain old Macaroni and cheese. Computers Are Small and fast and powerful not like in the old movies where they had tubes and Bells and whistles and took up an entire room and Only men in lab Coats wearing glasses could make them work but my Fin columnist 1 f Frank Ramirez gers still go Tippy tap Over the same old qwerty iop keyboard i used with my old manual typewriter. If anything has really improved it s got to be cameras. I Don t have to mess with film anymore because digital cameras Are cheaper and better and i can even see if my pictures came out right after i take them which Means i Don t have to pay to develop the whole Roll to find out my thumb was blocking the viewfinder. The Best thing is that even though it s now the future pizza is still the coolest thing to eat and trucks still look like trucks. When i relax at Home i still Wear jeans and to shirts. Folks still fall in love with Ham pot pie and with each other. Kids still play with cardboard boxes and babies still laugh when the Sun shines through the window to make patterns on the Wall. And even though there s a spellchecker on the computer most of us still can t spell Worth beens. I mean Beans. Which i find comforting for some reason. One reason i can t take living in the future too seriously is dogs Don t take it seriously either. It s All the same to my dog if i m writing on the computer or spending time on the internet. As far As he s concerned if it s time to go outside that Trumps whatever else i m doing. And what s True for dogs is True for folks. You can text All you want and you can even Wear your phone in your ear but what matters is the time you spend with people because we re Here today and gone tomorrow so you have to make today count. That goes double for Grod. Except for the part about being gone tomorrow. Last i checked god s not going anywhere soon. Since the future has turned out to be a fairly comfortable place i think i u stay. I Hope you will too. Make sure you shake a hand or hug or kiss someone depending on what s appropriate and what in t. Do something futuristic too but Don t take it too serious. Anyway Here s a Little ditty set to the tune of quot my Grandfather s clock quot and if you know that tune you re probably just As surprised As i am you made it to the future. My Grandfather s clock Don t need winding at All cause there s digital innards beneath. It keeps perfect time in the Spring summer fall. And in Winter it wears a big Wreath. From the speaker there comes a big ticking though there s no grinding gears inside but if once comes a surge then you must sing a Dirge cause that s when this clock will have died keeping time with the satellite tick Tock tick Tock. Just make sure that it s water tight tick Tock tick Tock watch the surge Knock ever3ihing romper jog. When this clock gets Fried chilean Miner Scopes out route before .
