Zombification. Zombies everywhere, and I am not referring to a cheesy "B-movie." Nearly the entire planet is now populated with self-made zombies. No secret elixir required. The "proof is in the pudding," so to speak.

Typical Shopping Zombification

The scenarios of zombification are endless. Only a few examples are provided. What causes chronic zombification? Chances are, the tool is right in your hand now. Yes, the "smartphone" is the culprit.

Typical Transit Zombification

Look at what the damned device does to its owners. Pure zombification. Nothing more, nothing less. The mind turns to mush immediately and remains so until the device's battery is depleted. Stupifying to say the least. Well, almost as stupifying as the dumb surveillance robot.

Typical Street Zombification

From what I have observed, nearly 50 percent of the population has been converted to zombies. The number is rising by the day. Soon, the entire planet will be zombified.

Typical Young Hottie

Of course, the positive side of "smartphone" zombification is the proliferation of the hottie "selfie." Yes, young hotties love to take amateurish pictures of themselves. And, we are the fortunate beneficiaries.

Typical "Selfie" Hottie

On a side note, the first tropical storm, albeit mild, has drenched the island with rain since Friday afternoon. Rain has been on and off since then. There were short reprieves from the heatwave, no long-term relief though. And, heatwave equals hotties.

Typical "Micro-Blog" Hottie

I have recently read a few on-line articles about the obsolescence of "blogs." Foolish enough, the articles were dated about eight years ago. However, the truth of the matter is that "blogs" are outdated, especially personal ones. With that said, perhaps I should switch to the trendier "micro-blog" format, eh?
