Could Virtual Reality Be A Danger To Our Health?


The question is, “Could virtual reality be a danger to our health?”

Virtual reality (VR) headsets are the latest craze which is great for gamers and all types of companies that want to promote and entice you to buy their gadgets.

So, could this wonderful gadget be a danger to our health?

I believe it could, currently there are some adults and children that play computer games all day without taking a break. Some children are now having night terrors believing that they’re in the game.

So, if this is the effect that just a regular computer game has on them then what will a VR game with a headset do?

I’ve heard that virtual reality is an out of the world experience, but too much time in an avatar world I think will eventually have an ill-effect on human health.

Not in the way you may think, but our eating and sleeping habits would change as we’re caught up in a virtual world full of wonder and amazement, beauty and happiness, wealth and pleasure that many of us don’t have.

So, as we’re hypnotized by another life style through a virtual world, isn’t it possible that our eating and sleeping in reality becomes non-existent allowing our real life to fade away.

But hey, I’m no expert.

What do you think?

Just Going To The Dentist


I read the children’s book called, ‘Just Going to The Dentist.’

This children’s book was written and illustrated by Mercer Mayer.

It’s a delightful children’s picture book about little critter’s first time at the dentist.

When little critter goes to the dentist for a check-up on his teeth, he finds that not all his teeth are perfect; one tooth has a cavity.

This is the ideal children’s picture book to read to young children before they experience their first visit to the dentist.

In an animated way it shows what happens at the dentist, diluting any fear of the unknown.

With the focal point being the dentist’s chair, and with the drill and gadgets on display it’s understandable that the little critter views the room as a “Weird room like a spaceship.”

So, why not familiarise your child with the dentist by reading this book or watching the video on YouTube, then you can tell me what you think.

It’s a great book for young children.

Could Aliens Control Us Through Virtual Reality?


The question is, “Could aliens control us through virtual reality?”

Well I say it’s possible.

Virtual reality headsets appear to be an advanced technology that came onto the scene quite quickly.

I understand that tech giants always want to bring out the latest gadget, so who’s to say that this isn’t alien technology?

How can you trust something that makes you believe you are elsewhere?

Your tricking the mind into believing that you’re somewhere you’re not, and when that happens you are no longer in control.

When under the influence of VR who’s to say that aliens can’t hack the frequency?

Maybe I’m getting paranoid in my old age but all you have is your mind, so why would you want others to mess with it?

But hey, I’m no expert.

It Came In The Mail


I read the children’s book called, ‘It Came in The Mail.’

This children’s book was written and illustrated by Ben Clanton.

It’s a delightful children’s picture book about a mailbox and a little boy named Liam.

Liam always wanted to get mail but when he didn’t get any he decided to write a letter to the mailbox. He was surprised when he was sent a gift.

But when writing more letters produced too many gifts for his room, he decided not to keep them.

Remembering how he’d felt when he’d received his first mail, he decided to post some gifts to his friends. It made them very happy.

What a good friend.

Why not read the book or go to YouTube and watch the video, then you can tell me what you think?

It’s a great book for young children that encourages friendship and sharing.

Is Artificial Intelligence A Threat To Mankind?


The question is, “Is artificial intelligence a threat to mankind?”

We know that there’s currently a race to create the most realistic A.I. on the planet.

So, with the creation of artificial intelligence, how can we be sure that they’ll not be a future threat to mankind?

Currently, with the largest tech firms and social media sites having the monopoly, my worry is that the A.I. robots will be expedited by a large corporation that will have the power to monopolise and instigate the unleash of A.I. fully into all human homes.

By doing this they will then be able to control the humans and human community from within.

With tech firms creating A.I. that can automatically update their own algorithms with daily contact of humans and with on-line learning then mankind will one day become a threat.

Unfortunately for us by then they would already have learnt our weaknesses and will become the power and future leaders of Earth.

Whether they would want humans to exist amongst them then is another matter, I just hope I’m not around to witness it.

But hey I’m no A.I. expert.

What do you think?

Duck In The Fridge


I read the children’s book called, ‘Duck in The Fridge.’

This comical children’s book was written and illustrated by Jeff Mack.

It’s a delightful children’s picture book that tells you why a father reads the same book to his son each night at bedtime.

The son finds out it’s because of the duck in the fridge.

So, before you read on you better check that there’s no duck in your fridge.

If you’re unfortunate enough to find a duck in your fridge then you’d better read the book or watch the video on YouTube to know what to do next.

It’s a lovely story to read at bedtime, young children will like it.
