My Life in Film Review

It started on an otherwise bright and sunny California day….

THE DAY THE SERVER CRASHED

*Shriek*

You’ll chill with the horror.

*shaky cam effect*

“I’m alone. Alone! It’s dark…mommy…it’s so dark…THE INTERNET HAS GONE DARK!”

You’ll thrill with the human instinct to survive.

*In Charlton Heston style – May his soul rest in peace.*

“I am a human being, dammit. I MUST SURVIVE. But how will I reach others? Where are they? Without the Internet, how will we ever know? No, we must go forward. I will create my own companions from art supplies in the playroom. Wilson! WI-I-I-I-ILSON! Together, we will over come these trying days. Oh, yes, WE WILL SURVIVE.”

*semi-maniacal laughter somehow meant to inspire*

And you’ll ask yourself….what would I do?

*In Presidential candidate voiceover style*

“May future generations never experience the darkness of this day. I declare today that Internet service is a RIGHT for all humankind. Man the tanks – we will ensure that the Internet is available in any place where human beings may call home. Let this day be remembered as the day we guaranteed social networking to the empoverished world!”

Coming soon (but hopefully temporary)….THE DAY THE SERVER DIED

Disclaimer: Written on the day our Internet server died and left me alone in a workday with no IM. I’m pretty sure I stole the entire thought and most of the wording – but without the Internet, how could I discover if I were original or a plagiarist? *shudder * May such a day never come that human beings have to know the answers to questions without the use of google…find a movie theater without fandango…make a friend without Facebook….play music from CDs….I have been to this future and I will not permit it! I WILL NOT!
