Re: Ah, yes. The big giant head.

Where? Where? Harry... didn't get the message he was coming!

If you think my big giant head is hot, Sally... take a look at these smoking hot buns of steel!

Face it, field... I've evolved beyond politics! I'm a sex symbol!

That reminds me... did you know that in the finale of "Boston Legal", Denny Crane has his sperm frozen for 200 years until a nice couple from Riverside, Iowa decides to use it... and yup, you guessed it... Denny is James T. Kirk's father...

I got a few predictions for 2058:

40%+ of the deciduous trees east of the Mississippi River are dead, Asian Longhorned Beetle infestations destroyed them systematically.

Cod is so rare it is no longer commercially fished in the Atlantic.

Sardines are extinct in the Mediterranean.

The Mississippi River is now moving through the Atchafalaya River. New Orleans is slowly returning to nature.

Red foxes east of the Appalachians are extinct.

The forests of British Columbia and Alberta have been decimated to feed the pulp and wood product demands of Asian economies.

Australia has 45+ million residents, and many new nuclear plants, and electric city vehicles. They consume on average 40% less water Per person per day than in 2008. And much less petro-energy.

Hydroponic factories (owned and developed by Dutchmen) are 8 stories tall and 99% automated.

East Hampton and the East Fork is sold by New York State to a consortium of (New Dollar) Trillionaires, and is now a gated private county.

The average person in New York City is on camera 1000+ times a day.

The Ogalalla Aquifer fails to produce in several isolated areas, and agriculture is abandoned, and bison herds are reintroduced.

And don’t forget the highest rated program on tv in 2058 will be “Celebrity Dump” where early 21st century tv and movie stars (now in their 60s and 70s) compare the size, odor and shape of their excretum (inspired by that Bono episode of “South Park”). That will follow by “Celebrity Pee”, sponsored by America’s asparagus growers, which will fail to be picked up by Fox.

And of course, the series premiere of “Ow, My Balls !” which will run for the next 450 years. (See “Idiocracy”).
