Immortal Life

I would quite like to live forever. Watch mankind develop and technology advance. Once I got to a certain age I would like to just stop aging completely. I would like to live without pain and suffering, and be able to stay alive in space or underwater. I would like to have a perfect immune system. Be able to fight off any disease before it reaches it's early stages. As soon as I get a wound it heals.

I would like my knowledge to ever expand, never letting me forget any piece of information. To know everything there is to know, and to be able to recall any information when I needed it. I would like to live into the future, getting all the latest technology and listening to the latest music.

The only problems that I would have with immortal life would be loneliness, and the ever looming prospect of the end of the world. It would be hard watching everyone that I love die around me, and having to try and fit in once I'm alone. And also when the inevitable end of the world comes, what will I do? Just float around in space visiting solar system after solar system? Despite the loneliness, that actually sounds pretty cool. Discover new planets and life-forms, and maybe even create a new civilisation.

What are your thoughts on immortal life? Post some comments on this entry about your views.

Explaining the whole "Top 10" thingymabob

In English class the teacher went through our blogs. It turns out we were supposed to have at least 39 blog entries, and I only happened to have 19. Yeah, only 20 less than I needed! I had heard from a friend that he had gone onto the Internet and found the 101 jokes page. He copied and pasted all 101 of the jokes into 5 different blog entries. I decided that it was a pretty intelligent idea, and I decided to do something similar.

I remembered going on a cool website a couple of years ago, a website full of HILARIOUS Top 10 lists that kept me entertained for hours. The website was called http://www.brainofbrian.com/topten.html. I remembered this website a couple of days ago, and thought it would be cool to put some of the lists on my blog. So last night, I spent about an hour copying and pasting these lists onto my blog one by one, completely losing track of time. I wasn't keeping count of how man lists I did, so when I finished the last one I thought I must have a total of 20-30 total blog entries. I clicked the 'View Blog' link, and was shocked and amazed to see that I had 39 blog entries! That's right, 39 blog entries!!!!! I thought there must be some sort of mistake, so I carefully counted every single blog entry. There was no mistake. I had a grand total of 39. I couldn't believe how coincidental this was. The number of blog entries I required, was the exact amount of blog entries I got!

So at the moment have 40 blog entries (Well 41 if you include this one). I am currently showing all of the entries on one page (to make it look really long!), and I think other people are going to follow my example on the mass blog entry making.
