The great Tiger Woods has announced that, owing to his latest back injury, he’s going to have to take a month or two off from golf play. But never fear, Barack is here, ready to fill the vacuum as most famous golfer in the world. It is, we might say, so 21^st century of him. Even his prompt return Wednesday to the one thing he cares about after denouncing ISIS in a public service announcement hasn’t hurt his ranking. Indeed, bad boy behavior can only enhance his game and smile. Take a look at Rory McIlroy, who went on to win three straight tournaments, including two majors, right after throwing his fiancée under a bus and canceling their wedding plans. Twenty-first century types are everywhere.
Does anyone still have what in the 20^th century was known as a conscience? Of course. Just to stay in the world of sports, we should single out Messrs. Phil Simms and Tony Dungy, two football giants turned NFL broadcasters and analysts who’ve let it be known they will not mention the Washington Redskins by name at any time during work hours this coming season. As if that would keep us from ever mentioning those two or wondering if perhaps some brain damage incurred during their playing days is weakening their vocabulary. Sorry, but that’s 21^st century thinking for you.
Then there’s veteran Washington Post sportswriter Thomas Boswell, who has just done a column on the Redskins without ever calling them anything other than “Washington,” “team,” “D.C.’s team,” and “this franchise.” We detect an opportunist here. Just last November he called them Redskins fourteen times in a single column. No Mike Carey he. He’s the recently retired NFL referee who has let it be known that as early as 2006 he asked his bosses not to assign him to Redskins games, so ahead of the times was conscience-stricken he.
We wonder how ref Carey would have reacted last Monday night to the Redskins’ secondary, who during pre-game introductions ran onto the field with their hands up. ESPN and others paid those gestures no mind, though among the bookie community in Las Vegas the thinking was that the players were expressing solidarity with Ferguson, Missouri. Riskier betters put their money on the Redskin players’ tendency to surrender major yardage on any pass play. We’re hoping our Boswell will explain it all to us as the season progresses.
Ferguson has become all things to all people, at least those at the network still known as CNN who seem certain that all roads to the missing Malaysian airliner must go through that St. Louis suburb. You have to be in television to understand how that might be possible. One thing we do know is that CNN found it easier to locate Darren Wilson’s home than it did that missing plane. So far it hasn’t been hit by a missile like the one that brought down a subsequent Malaysian flight.
In other 21^st century developments, a leading Democrat Emily’s List type has decried the notion that abortion is a “difficult decision.” Let’s hear it for our common humanity. A Lois Lerner award is in order for Rho Chalmers, a member of the Austin, Texas grand jury that has revived Rick Perry’s presidential campaign. She described her Democratic Party activism to the Houston Chronicle, and denied it had anything to do with her role in indicting Perry. Instead, she relied on what she calls her “life experience.”
Can there be a Democrat who’s gotten a life beyond party activism? Unless he’s a golf addict, of course. So let’s add an EOW prize to Ms. Cho’s winnings and sentence her to two and a half years of caddying for our nation’s Golfer in Chief. He will allow a woman to break up his foursome, won’t he?
We've entered a new era: the twenty-first century. Of course, it's exciting and we are trying to predict what our life will be like in the future. It will certainly become better — I'm sure of it.
Robots will do all the dangerous and dirty work for us and our daily life will become easier. They'll sweep the floor, dust the furniture, wash the dishes and even cook! It doesn't mean we'll become lazier, no. When everything is done automatically, we'll be able to do more creative jobs.
We'll be able to call our friends on a videophone and type up homework by talking to a small gadget that understands the human voice.
Scientists (or probably computers?) will find solutions to our most urgent problems. People will stop dying from cancer and AIDS and will live to be 150 years old.
There will be no more famine on our planet and no more hungry children. Cities will become cleaner, greener and safer. We'll drive electric cars and live in houses with lots of plants and special air-cleaning gadgets.
Atmospheric pollution will be stopped and our planet will be saved.
There will be no more wars, no more criminals and no more terrorists. People will learn to live in peace and understand each other.
We'll have more free time and longer holidays. We'll be able to travel in space and — who knows — maybe one day we'll be able to spend our holidays on Mars.
I'm really optimistic about the future. After all, we are becoming wiser. The superpowers are disarming, governments are waking up to Green issues ...
Anyway, it's up to us to look after our planet and try to make it a better place to live.

That now is an old and outdated story that man has evolved from the ape. If one talks about this theory of evolution one would be treated as obsolete.
Now the modern concept is — a robot replacing a man. Such wide-spread and miraculous changes and evaluations have taken place within the last fifty years that one only has to wonder and remain wonderstruck.
