4 Field Observations

1:30 AM Friday February 27 1984
I was watching the movie 1984 based on George Orwell's Novel. Close to the end the thought police were torturing and doing experiments on Winston, the main character. O' Brien, thought police, was holding up four fingers, and questioning Winston about how many fingers he was holding up. Winston replies four, only to have the torture increased. It is only when he replies he doesn't know that the torture and experiment ends. I found that sicking, someone being able to manipulate knowledge because they held some kind of power over another.

5:15 PM Saturday February 28 Tickets
I sometimes wish knowledge was not so spontaneous. Just as I had arrived at my Uncle's Birthday party my friend called me and said he had Thrashers tickets. Had I known this a day or even a few hours ahead of time, I would have never gone to Buford for the party.

6:30 PM Saturday February 28 Uncle's B-Day
My cousins and I were sitting at the dinner table conversing about different topics. My cousin Tim is reading a book I've read called A Brief History of Time by Stephen Hawking. I asked him if he had heard of entanglement. He said no, and asked why. I replied by saying I could use some clarification on the subject. He laughed and said if I don't, then he probably wouldn't understand it either. I thought this was strange because he just might be smarter than I.

11:45 AM Sunday March 1 Snow
I can't believe it actually snowed for once. I had heard a report of snow on Friday, but I rarely believe a word meteorologists have to say. For the most part predicting the weather is just kind of a cruel joke. I wish there existed a more exact science on this subject.
