Plug Me In




Today, when I tried to write a scene, after letting my mind wander around a concept and having ideas form and connect, my brain magically turned into a sieve - again.   As soon as I tried to jot them down, sections slipped off to who knows where, possibly a far off secret land where they laugh at my attempts to capture them.   I can still hear their muffled tittering.

Then I thought wouldn't it be great if I could plug something into the side of my head that would record all those thoughts.  Okay, so it might be a bit jumbled but I could sort it out.  It wouldn't be any worse than what I write on paper. Yes, I do everything in long hand first.   Maybe Apple could invent it and call it the I-Brain.   No longer would you have to strain your fingers.   Then they could release an I-Brain ll, three months later, which would also digitally record those scenes you picture in your head like a movie and project them on a screen. This little gem would be smaller and have more color choices.  And three months after that, they would come out with the I-Brain lll.  It could send these images to handheld devices that have a hook up to transfer it to another person's brain.  Brain to brain communication!

Wow.  Just think of the possibilities.  Imagine what ad agencies could do with this. Teachers could teach from their homes and know who is listening.  Authors could pitch without getting tongue tied.  They just project their story into the Brainpad lll to any agent or editor.

Yes!  OMG  We could start a movement. If we get enough people sending out good thoughts to everyone we could change the world.    World peace.  A better, healthier environment.  Better protection for wildlife.  A great tasting non-fattening chocolate.  The possibilities are endless.

  1. LOL you nailed the marketing ploys to a T. I always told my son, they have all the technology, they just slowly let it out in each version, so they can sell more mechanize. Cynical, I know.

    Sending good thoughts!

    1. You're not cynical but a realist. How many times has Apple used that ploy.

      Got your good thoughts and I didn't need a I-Brain to receive them. lol

      Thanks for stopping by, Maggie.

    1. I'm not sure I'm in the market for an I-Brain lll. I curb my thoughts a decent amount of times before I speak. But the original I-Brain might be good for me.

      Glad you came by. Thanks.

  3. And would the I-Brain III have the ability to quickly capture a picture? I know when I see something beautiful I always say "Ohhh, I wish I had my camera". Now if I had something like an I-Brain it would know when I wanted to snap a pic by my brain waves, right....

    1. I guess they could include that. It would be a good option for those of us, okay me, who don't know how to take a picture with our phones. lol

  4. iBrain would be cool. Think of all the stuff you lose because you've got cookie dough on your hands or you're going 70 miles per hour on the freeway. No more! All you need is iBrain.

    1. Or when you're eating those cookies, you wouldn't have to stop to write. Or you could write a sex scene while having sex, except stopping in the middle to think of just the right word might put a damper on things. lol

      Oh well, it's still a good idea.

      Thanks Catie for sharing.

  5. I would need two of each iBrain model - one for each of my personalities. lol. The Gemini in me never knows what she wants. :-) Great concepts, Donna. And you've absolutely captured their marketing strategies, Donna!

    1. Or would you need three of each, one group of I-Brains for each personality and another group for when they work together? :)

      Thanks for popping in.

    2. LOL! Yes! Three. Though one would get very little use. ;-)
