Of Canned Tuna and Darwinism






















Dinner of canned tuna in sunflower oil. Dolphin safe and Omega-3 destroyed.

Was reading about Darwin's Beagle journey and how he came up with his theory.  It's quite amazing how throughout history inventions and break-through has always been a case of who presented it best. For each brilliant new theory or invention, there is always a series of people who has done it before albeit in slightly different methods and with different intentions but with the similar conclusion. And of these, some faded into oblivion only to be rediscovered long after their lifespan, some ended up looking like bitter and sore losers, some were beheaded and yet some just don't make that big an impact.

So what makes that perfect equation of Marketing + Idea + Correct Timing = Genius of the Century and how do you make sure you don't end up as some others you see at the end of the wikipedia page?

On another note, it's quite amazing how a bald monk who spent his entire solitary life staring at bean stalks and probably eating beans, one day decided to call us all BB, Bb, Bb. bb and the entire world nodded seriously in agreement. Isn't life logical!

The Greeks were probably doing the same when Socrates said that being born a women is the ultimate divine punishment. *nods seriously in agreement*

can you tell I just had a really crappy day?
