Cyberpunk!!!!!

The futuristic stuff i noticed was the giant closing blinds, the star ship, the very very big city and of course that eye scanning machine that was used to see how she responded to the questions. It creates kind of a calming/quiet mood, just the way the sun and sky are at that time makes it feel very calming and the objects in the room give you the thought of wisdom.


After reading the back information for "NERUROMANCER" the contents of the book didn't really catch my attention, but if i had to choose some parts from the book id have to say that the parts about his "mind getting burned micron by micron" and getting banished by cyberspace and than the only way he can get back in is by paying a price. Those were the only parts of it that caught my attention


This is Steel, he was born a mercenary and will die a mercenary. His powers are strength, being able to jump very high and at high speeds and is invincible.
He has no home, he doesn't know where he was born or who his "parents" are. He travels from town to town looking for jobs to do and at the same time he's looking for clues about who he is, why he's here and why he has no memory. He's a very quiet person that only says what he thinks needs to be said.
His only Friend is himself, he doesn't stay in a town long enough to get to know people, his enemies are many. Every time he helps someone who offers the best price he makes enemies with the people he is sent to hurt. The music he listens to is the music of the wild, whether in a dessert, near water or in a forest he listens to the noise around him for music.

Famous people in the media... creepy stuff...



Alright so alot of those advertisements were quite suggestive... My favourite out of the ads that I saw would have to the one with Mr. James Bond (Pierce Brosman) if the watch is good enough Mr.Bond himself, why not me?

And lets be honest it's a decent looking watch :P


My least favourite would probably have to be the one with Brittany spears, cause all it is her on roller blades and in three different spots of the page. I don't even know what shes advertising really..


That's alot of Millions... haha i think some of those advertising endorsements are a bit high in money.. like really really to high. But also if there in a contract to advertise and use, wear or drink the product and it's really bad they do deserve money like that because there putting there good name out there saying "this is some good stuff". Although some of those advertisements... not worth it.. hahaha


I think celebrity's have maybe only a small amount of influence on what people buy. Like lets say your favourite sports team/player is sponsored by Adidas, you would probably think "huh that looks really good.." and so you walk by a sports store and see a deal on Adidas you would most likely go to try the stuff on for two reasons. 1) your favourite sports team wears it, why not you? 2) it's half off. This type of advertising works but not always.


Micheal Phelps was dropped from Kellogg's after pictures of him smoking an illegal substance were shown to the world. I don't really know if they should have dropped him, sure he did something illegal but honestly who doesn't do one thing in there life that illegal? don't judge the man under one circumstance. We all makes mistakes, were only human.


This is James Hetfield, i think the best advertising campaign he could do is maybe either MADD or supporting those commercials that ask you to help find a cure to cancer. MADD because James Hetfield had a big time alcohol abuse problems years back but after rehab he's clean. Helping to find a cure for cancer because his mother died of cancer when he was in his early teens.
