We're doomed

Hello!

Another day another blog. What will I talk to about today? Remember one of my earlier posts, when I talked about the end of the World theories? Well there's going to be another one coming up, fortunately I don't think it will affect us your sons, daughters or great-grandchildren.

Apparently the world's going to end in 2182! Yeah! There seems there's an asteroid heading our way and that it will probably hit us. You don't believe me? Here see for yourself 2182 .



Told you so, and when 2182 passes by there's going to be another theory about how a giant tomato will come and collide with us. Why is it that men wants the world to end? It's like were not happy and were trying to find an end to this thing. But maybe they're right, I think the only way this planet is going to end is if something astrological happens. I mean all the Mayan, the third coming of Christ, Nostradamus and all that mumbo-jumbo will probably never happen. But an asteroid hitting Earth will probably happen in the future and perhaps an alien invasion also. These are all mathematical possible and therefore could happen, but some guy predicting that in the future the earth is going to end in the year 2012 on December 21: I don't think so.

But isn't it amazing how fast news gets to you now? I mean the person whose late here is me. I got this article 4 days ago but I finally came up with the idea to blog about it now. I get these things on twitter from a local DJ. I like twitter, you read different things from many people around the world that are living life just like you. I got a couple of famous people that are following my tweets, not that they are really reading them but I have them as followers. They basically have their accounts to promote themselves. And then there's Facebook, which keeps your "friends" up-to-date with your life. I also get news the old-fashioned way, I hear them on TV, I hear them on the radio, I don't read newspapers anymore because once you read the newspaper, you're getting old news. So I think I'm quite up to date with the news, if someone gets his head smashed somewhere in the world and the news is going to sell, I'll probably get it on my TV worst-case scenario I'll see it on YouTube.


Enough about the end of the world! Let's blog about something else. I don't want to blog about my MS and how it's getting worse and worse and worse. I think my depressed peri0od paassed already and every day I am finding out more services that I can get. Did you know that I can actually get a sex therapist to come to my house and get it on? Yeah! I use her services three times a week because the other two it's usually a guy that comes over and I don't do that... Just kidding.


Look, it's true that I'm getting worst but I'm getting help left and right. You wouldn't believe what a babe magnet the wheelchair is, I'm getting smiles from the most beautiful woman out there. Super babes are actually holding doors for me and talking to me. I'm guessing it's just a matter of time before someone will come and snatch me up, I will have to tell them that I am already happily married but I have a couple of loser brothers that may want to. I have to be careful with my wording here, I don't make the food and I don't want to get poisoned.


I know I'm not much to look at but mathematically there still a chance.

Wow

Hello!

The title says it all, this is my second blog today and am really really impressed by the software that Nuance sent me. I am actually in a rerested position in my wheelchair dictating to the computer, and I know that there will be very few mistakes that I need to correct afterwards but I can keep on doing this for hours if I wanted to.

I really have to get in touch with Nuance to let them know how good this application is, I worked with another product of their software line but it didn't do much recognition it was just saying the name and the call was transfered to that person. This one has left me really perplex because of its speed and its accuracy.

Not to mention that I'm actually dictating to the computer and it recognizes almost everything! So blogging will be such a breeze! The only thing is that you have to remember to put ",.!?" Or any other punctuation that you need to add to the text. Kudos to the scientists that developed this thing I am extremely impressed.

I think tomorrow I can come up with other ideas for my blogging and perhaps learn more on how to control the computer with the software.

Anyways I'm not selling anything here, I just wanted to let you know that I am extremely impressed with this application and I hope that I can learn more about it so I can become a Dragon NaturallySpeaking software expert and help other people that are going through what I went through.

Correction time!

Hello!

This is my first blog of August 2010. Dragon NaturallySpeaking is much better at speech recognition then the Vista one. I still have to learn commands for it but so far so good. I did have to select that I had a Latin accent to it but all this time I've been lied to by people telling me that I have no accent, liars!

So how is your weekend going so far? It's been two beautiful days without humidity and perfect temperatures. But apparently this week coming there's going to be rain and humidity all over the place. I love this application, you don't know how fast I'm talking and is recognizing everything. Nuance rules!

So yesterday at the party I felt like an old geezer. My niece invited some of her friends and they are all in their 17s 18s and they all hang in their own little group. I'm telling you this application really rules I am actually further away not even seen the screen and relaxing in my wheelchair. So where was I? Oh yes I was talking about my niece and her friends. Sooner or later they will stop talking to us thinking that we are old geezers and we don't understand them. I know that this is true for my daughters already, they ignore me except when they need something. It's amazing I wonder how many mistakes I made so far with this application.

For being a first with voice recognition from another company, it has been a very very nice interaction between the computer and myself. The only thing is that I can think as fast as I talk! Okay let's check how many this takes I have done so far.

I am amazed! There wasn't many mistakes done by the application, and as I understand it will learn more as I talked with more. I will really try to understand them to learn the commands that I have to use to go around my desktop and start doing other things. I know how to check my mail now and how to create me a, it is easier then with my old application. I guess I'll be able to blog as fast as I used to do.

As a summary of my blog, my nephews and nieces are getting older and hopefully wiser and they are not talking to us adults. Also the new speech recognition application by nuance is really really cool.
