How do advances in technology affect warfare? How does warfare affect technology? What examples do you see in today's world?

Technology is everything, if we didn't have technology.... we wouldn't have technology..jk..
Technology never ends, we will be in need of something, so some scientist or inventor will invent something to help with that, and then you'll think, man this really isn't all that good, we could do better so they use that thing and improve on it to make it even more useful and much easier to use, and it'll never end, it'll just keep getting better and better.
And in warfare, if we didn't have technology, wars would take much longer because fighting with nothing but swords and bows, that would take forever to conquer a whole city or country, but with bombs and guns, to destroy a city all you need is one bomb, so a few seconds to drop and the city goes kaboom!! So we are always in need for more and more technology, the more we have the better, but also if we get some cool high tech machine, it won't help that much in the war because the other side would probably also have it so it would just even out again.. so ya!!!

Music

Ok well i was thinking of what to post about and while i was thinking i was listening to music and then all of sudden i thought! how about i write about music. and so i'm writing about music, ok well my favorite is hip-hop/rap.. barely any alternative, but pop is ok to, hip-hop can be an aquired interest, like an acquired taste, some people won't like it very much but if they just start listening to it then they're hooked, not to everyone but some people, ya. I just loved it the second i started listening to it i was hooked. My parents don't like me listening to it cause it's bad, and i totally agree, some of it is pretty dang bad, bbut if i listen to a song a couple times then i don't really hear the words enough to actually understand what it is saying, (one good thing from having horrible memory) and at first i was like "no way, it don't talk about bad stuf, but then i started listening to songs over and realized it actually does, but i really don't think it's affected me negatively. In fact the reason i like it so much, is actually, i know hard to believe but some of them are actually inspirational! :) some talk about good stuff, er at least not bad stuff, like a song, "2 pac - Changed" talks about problems in the ghetto and what's going on there that is wrong, and "runaway love - ludacris & Mary J" talks about girls with problems, like abusive parents, and other stuff and just what they should do, and on my itunes i got plenty, and i'll admit i also have quite a bit of not so inspirational ones, but another good thing about hip hop/rap, is that if i'm feeling depressed or stressed and i just can't get that off my mind, i listen to those songs, it is probably the best way i can think of to get that stuff off your mind, or to help me think about it if i want, but that usually doesn't happen, i'm sure this works with other genre's of music, but i just haven't tried, so ya, i'm pretty much obsessed with hip/hop -rap, it is my life, all i ever do..24/7

please comment and list musics you listen to and how it affects you guys!! please guys!! this could turn into an awesome discussion

Eragon

Just to conclude with Alex's post about eragon..
um actually just to correct you a little, the reason why roran didn't just go in and capture Katrina was because eragon was freaking holding him back, and he knew that if he went he would die and not ever see her again... so i'm pretty sure he's not gonna want to go in there without a plan and knowing he'd die and never see her again. So waiting and planning was a actually a pretty good plan.
and if you haven't read that book..then read it..it is really good, the writer has got some amazing skills, you may have to be pretty skilled reader cause it's pretty complicated. It's got some awesome action and intense scenes, so ya read it guys>>>

Just my week

k well i am bad at thinking of ideas to write about for posts so i'll just write about my week and try to write something inspirational, but that probably won't happen. Ok well i had an F in chemistry so i didn't really do anything but try to study for that class, but usually my average week goes like this, i wake up take a shower, get dressed, get my school stuff ready. Play computer or just listen to music, and then try to call shotgun before my sister does. But she usually wins, and so i have to stay in the back of the car listening to the scriptuers..ugh, sorta boring, and then i go to school and do school stuff and go to classes, and don't sluff of course, and then i stay after school for math, and then go home and hope my mom decides to take me to wendy's. wendy's is my absolute favorite thing in the world, i could eat there every freaking day if i could, i actually did for a while but then my friends decided to go to arby's instead of wendy's all the time, but arby's got some dang good mac n' cheezers, i suggest you guys get some of those. k well i get home do a little bit of homework go lift weights, or go swimming, then come home try to concentrate on homework but get carried away and start playing grand theft auto san andreas. and that is a typical day in stefano's life.!! peace homies

Perfect Society

When we talked about perfect society's in class we talked about how groups aren't good, like the skaters, the druggies, the nerds, loners and etc. but i think that is a good idea. As long as every one belongs and has a group or some friends and aren't loners. So if everyone has a group of people to be with, then we'd have people of every kind in your society and that's just what you need to progress. you would have business people, strong people for stuff like being cops, and so you would have someone for anything. and the owner of the society (or leader) has to make sure everyone is living fine, as in not being poor, so if someone doesn't have enough money, then he either gets some money from the government or the gov will take some money from people who have more then they need, and then pay them back later on...so ya!!! if you want a perfect society, abide by mine!!!
