Recently we learned about the intricacies of a program called iTunes of which with all of it's features has a built in, clear the throat...backup program...
The iTunes built in backup program verifies our claim that Apple is fadware, it's added simply for Apple to say, we have a backup program...
We'll admit it's a far cry better than what Android has to go through in order to backup their phone data, but nonetheless, a lightweight wannabe, but we digress...
It's the little setbacks like this that help us realize there's a bigger picture that opens up a realization that we look at life through a peephole...
Where we're going with this is, we lost our music thinking that Apple had backed it up, but it didn't, profiles were gone and music was gone...
Now to be fair to Apple, we still have one more test to perform to confirm whether or not local to remote drives have an effect on the profiles...
Although, we'll wait until we need to reload before we test that last theory, but it may be sooner than later because we noticed a sync problem with Outlook Email losing all of our contacts when we add our password to accounts under settings...
Our Email works, folders sync up with our Email, but as soon as you add your password all the contacts disappear, is very weird and we have to restore the contacts from iTunes...
That's not why were here though, and will save that discovery for another day, another blog post...
When the Piriform virus problem hit we decided to reinstall our computer, and of course w/out Piriform...
When we lost our 5s, we weren't too happy, the Piriform issue didn't make us happy, having to reinstall, we don't care, it's a pretty easy process for us, but we did something different this time...we didn't backup our music...
We knew that we had all of our music backed up, so we really didn't care, but what we did know was that not all the music comes across named...
For one reason or another some music just doesn't sync up with the naming servers to get titled and stays as an 0 something or a 11 or 12 something...
In other words, it stays as Track 01 or track 11 or track 12 with no title, no song name, just a track...
We had to name the file manually for most of the music because the track didn't update, and selectively decided not to remember how long that process takes...
Transferring all your music from CD to your Phone takes some time and when cars don't accept CD's anymore, your forced to transfer all your music to your portable device...
Going from Record to 8 track was a big deal because it meant you can take your music with you in the car which was a big deal for it's time...
Then they took 8 track to cassette which still meant you were still portable but you were portable with more music...
Then they went to CD, which didn't mean you had more music, it just meant that you didn't have to fast forward or rewind anymore, you just pressed...next...
That was a big deal, but now we're back to adding more music for your portable device, just like we were years ago when we added more music to the cassette...
History repeating itself, over and over again and here we are again with the Mystery Track, another example of History repeating itself...
When CD came out the big feature of no rewind or fast forward was short lived because it wasn't that big of an advancement and you lost your mobility...
Portable radios were now losing their luster because as soon as you would move around the tracks would skip, the songs would skip, which made the new technology look stupid...
Oh, they tried to make portable devices work, like the backpack CD that strapped around the front of your chest would still skip, and made you look like an idiot on top of the skipping...
Then they discovered that LP sounded better than CD and that's coincidentally enough, why LP is still relevant today, even with the static it produces from the needle...
The High Fidelity is true High Fidelity and NO CD can compare to an LP...
So CD had to do something, so they made multiple CD holders to increase the one CD to 5 CD's or more, and that was a big improvement and that technology lasted all the way up till now, but a CD still scratches...
They used to have home CD systems that you can stack a lot of CD's into, and the cool thing about them was that you could program in your tracks so when they played the song title would stream across the led...
That was cool, however, those home CD players were crap because they had too many moving parts and as soon as that CD player broke, you had to go out and buy a new one and you had to program back in all that music...
That's a lot of work and coincidentally enough is exactly where we are today with having to name all of our songs so they come across the screen with the title, and to be honest with you, we just don't want to do it...
So we loaded all of our songs onto our iPhone as is, track 01, 02, 11 and 12 etc..., but we noticed something, that was kind of cool...
What we noticed was, other than the fact that we had music again, was that we had a mystery track...
We had a song that was gonna play that we had no idea what it was going to be and that was intriguing and enlightening at the same time...
The generation of today have it so easy, they just speak into a device and Viola, it's there, title, date, definition, pronunciation and multi-lingual...
Their life has been streamlined and programmed into a continuum that's created a status quo of sorts of what to follow and who to follow...
Everything has to make sense, everything has to be the same, it has to be replicated from one platform to another...
This makes sense in a corporate setting where you can go from one job to another, start and stop where you left off to reduce the amount of training, but not good for a multi-cultural world...
This is why Millennials have so much trouble talking to anyone else but a Millennial, because if they don't think and act like they do, they get confused and anxious...
The technology of today is the work that the Baby Boomers and Gen X'rs created over years of working in a multi-cultural environment...
This is what these generations created, to make life easier, which it has, but it's so easy that it doesn't have enough controversy, so they'll never understand what it takes to create the world we have today...
This generation hasn't had to truly work for anything, and with the Government continually taking money from the hard working individuals to provide free services for the people that don't work advances the continuum...
That's why we say, it doesn't matter that the track doesn't have the title in it, that you don't know what song is going to play next, what artist it's going to play...
We say, let it go, let it be, let it differentiate, let it surprise you, forget what you know, what you think you know, what you want to know...
Go to a restaurant you've never been before, watch a movie you've never seen before, pick a city you've never visited before, read a book you've never read before, talk to a person you've never talked to before...
There's nothing wrong with a little mystery in your life, that's why there's nothing wrong with having a mystery track in your collection...
There was a time that is was everything to be in the groove, but we say, it's time to get out of the rut of the groove and start to move...and that's a fact!

The Follies that Is the Stock Market...
The question that is being asked is, will the stock market go back up, the answer is...yes...
The other question that is being asked, will the stock market go down, the answer is...yes...
That is the purpose of the Stock Market, buy low, sell HIGH...
If the stock market was always high, it couldn't sustain itself and would eventually fall, just like most of the bridges and roads in America...
Everybody is concerned about the interest rates that are going to be going back up and you shouldn't be, it's a sign of a good economy...

There is however a problem with the Stock Market and we see a decline about to happen if things don't change within their infrastructure or the mind set of the companies that are a part of the Dow...
Some time ago they were concerned about putting Apple on the Dow because tech companies are such a fluctuating market, however they still added them because there was no denying the money they were making...
However even they have trouble predicting the future because they missed a big boat called Amazon...
The Two Fundamental problems we have currently is that Oil and Gas, which makes up the bulk of the Dow are not returning the profits they are used to, thanks to people like Elon Musk...
The other is tech and this new generation hasn't brought anything of significance to the table for tech, other than an app that takes a picture and deletes itself called Snapchat, which still doesn't work because it doesn't delete, because it's DIGITAL...
The tech market is stagnant right now and basing all their profits off of a Telephone :-D which Apple just took the lead on, again...
Steve Jobs was Apple and set forth a plan for Tim Cook to follow, a five year plan that's came and gone, and now Apple is struggling...
Tim Cook is not good for Apple design, he's great at saving money, and infrastructure, but contrary to popular belief, defense doesn't win the games if you're not advancing with your offense...
Tim Cook has just announced that they are going to stop production to fix the plethora of problems they have right now with their products...
Apple was caught red-handed...
http://www.businessinsider.com/apple-battery-throttling-gives-customers-reason-to-distrust-2017-12
He's also destroying the brand that is Apple by cheapening the look and the removal of iconic logos...
Apples biggest adventure now is creating a 6.1" screen which coincidentally enough is just half the size of the old 12" monochromes televisions that baby boomers grew up on :-D...
Don't know about you, but watching television on a 6.1" screen isn't the same as watching it on a 60" screen and we truly don't have any desire to do so...
A computer on a Watch, that's cool, but keep it to keeping in touch with someone, the reason it was meant to be, not as your main source of viewing...
There truly is nothing of significance in the tech world right now and they are making you believe there is, but you're sitting on a bubble...
The biggest thing in Tech is the collection of Data and building the servers to house it all on...
We've always had a thought for as long as we could remember, what it would be like if we could extract all the knowledge our parents and grandparents gained...
If you could just suck it into your brain and instantly understand how to do things, without any training whatsoever...
Companies would love this, because training is expensive and time consuming...
We truly believe they are closer than we think to achieving this theory, but what they are learning in the process is that you'll have to take the good with the bad...
The other problem with this process is that it doesn't matter that you suck the information into the other person, people are just wired differently...
Just because you give the person the information doesn't mean they'll know what to do with it...
It happens all the time, geniuses come up with great ideas, but don't have any idea what it's supposed to be used for, or even know they had a good idea...
It's been tested time and time again only to discover that talent isn't made, it's born and then perfected over time...
It will eventually be what destroys us...
As for Oil and Gas, if they don't get with the Elon Musk Program and start creating solar and electric they're going to be on the street with a cup and a sign...
Oil and Gas are going to price us right out of our vehicles and with the Government double dipping with the electric and gas tax will drive the middle class right into poverty and onto a bus...
...but that's a conversation for another day...
It's a selloff right now on the Stock Market because they need money and they need money bad, and with Warren Buffett selling off 94% of his IBM stock and investing 23% of it into Apple is curious to us...
What Apple has that most don't is both a Hardware and a Software solution, Microsoft learned the hard way on this one and IBM is currently learning how to code, so it doesn't surprise us that Warren Buffett made this move...
If we were IBM we'd start doing whatever it took to get business with Microsoft and Apple, by helping in the design of whatever they have coming out...
The toughest part that IBM won't understand is that they'll have to take the back seat in this venture...
Microsoft is still leaps and bounds ahead of Apple, but Apple is still leaps and bounds ahead of them in sales, but IBM could bring balance to these industries if they were willing to work together...
Just like in sports, using the Tom Brady approach, they felt that Tom Brady and the Patriots were ruining Football because they were so good, but the Eagles stepped up and showed them differently...
IBM are Hardware Geniuses, but lack any playing time and that hurts hardware and without hardware there can't be any software, but can there be...
We also see something very horrifying in the world of tech and the lack of resources available to us and that is the use of the Human Element...
...THE CYBORG...
Hardware is just a Host and the Human is also just a host as described in the Bible...
The Government and the Media together are molding us already to think the same, to act the same, to be the same...
...but that's a conversation for another day...
So in conclusion, the problem we see is that the solutions that are going to start coming out will be government owned and government controlled which leave little for the private sector and will ultimately be the dissemination of their agenda. They'll levy taxes so high on businesses that they won't be able to afford to employ people and will have to modernize their plants to robotic assembly.
The Stock Market will at that point be doing better than it ever has, but only for the few. The Government will be doing better than they've ever done before thanks to the collection of data that is being collected currently. No one is able to leave the long arm of the law and eventually all those data stores will be tapped by some legal mumbo jumbo that allows them access and once gained will be the beginning of the end...and that's a fact!
The other question that is being asked, will the stock market go down, the answer is...yes...
That is the purpose of the Stock Market, buy low, sell HIGH...
If the stock market was always high, it couldn't sustain itself and would eventually fall, just like most of the bridges and roads in America...
