Well when I wake up from smart memory micro fiber bed that molds to my body and regulates my temperature, I would brush my teeth with my super cleaning micro organism tooth paste that guarantees my teeth from ever staining, getting cavities or falling out in old age. I wouldn't need to use my smart, self navigating hover car to any school because to learn new material, all one would need to do is wear a helmet that stimulates my brain while feeding me information for an hour. After my hour is up, I would call my friends through an implanted communication device in my inner ear, almost like a hearing aid of the year 2010, to go play some basket ball at the local about three miles down the street. It's not too far so I think I will just take my hover board which can reach speeds of 45MPH. I'm wearing my classics Micheal Jordan "kicks" with some temperature regulating clothes to keep my cool while I play an intense game of basket ball.
I know this probably sounds more like life in the year 3030, but I really don't think too many changes will take place in thirty years. The only things that I see really hanging are home electronics appliances and cars. But I do not see any thing too dramatic.

Pictures in our Heads
The article Pictures in our Heads, was an article that I agree with. I personally do think that the media plays a significant role in the way people think. If some one watches a lot of crime on T.V., it would not surprise me the slightest bit if they think that the community has a lot of crime in it.
The conclusion that can be drawn from Gerbner's television program analysis is that heavy T.V. viewers will portray the world in a way that the media portrays it. Iyengars' and Kinders' experiment helped support Gerbner's conclusion by showing that if people are made to watch selective material, they will have the false believe that those things are of greater importance to the society. The more they watched something on T.V., the more they related it to the economy.
I not only think that television is the sole enemy here. All forms of media are very misinformational and misleading. Music is a great contributor to viewing women as inferior the importance of wealth, and interest of drugs. There is so much out in the media that influence the way our society thinks, and the ones affected by it, are usually the ones that say that, "It has no effect on me."
