Something to think about when people go camping.


I was taking a shower this morning and was thinking about politics, page marketing and what to wear. When I started mix mashing thoughts and came with this question: “Does politics have a product cycle?” .

A little track back on the product cycle. They are marketing terms for a product, on how and when does it get accepted into the market.

In the cycle they are 4 main categories:

  • Early Adopters* First 15% – 20% that adopt the product. These are the people on the cutting edge. So cost doesn’t mean much to them, they also influence the next group.
  • Early Majority Next 30-35%. This is where the money comes in and when it gets accepted in the market. This is also when competition starts coming in and fighting for market share
  • Late Majority Next 30%. The last part of the money train people have accepted the product and its become a house hold name and their are lots of competitors in the market.
  • Laggards Remaining 20%. Here is when the product stops really making money and the early companies with this product stop doing it.

So how does this relate to politics.

One good current example is women’s rights in Kuwait.

I think the struggle started back in the 70s-80s and thats when early adopters came in with this idea and belief. Of course they were in the minority. Yet still with this 20-30 year period I don’t think we have even got near to the Late Majority stage. Cause to me if feels this movement is right down the middle now with the people who want it and the ones who are against it, and there will always be some people who are even after it gets accepted.

So in conclusion its coming, there is no question about it, it will come and be accepted. Yet what I am already thinking about now is whats next? What will be the next early adopter movement, and that is what is scares me a little.

I have this strange fascination with numbers, store I love just looking at them and figuring out some weird pattern and such. One place for random number combinations that I love are with license plates on cars. I’ll look at the numbers and try to figure out a pattern or even random ways to memorize the numbers.

Here is an example from a car outside.
138799

So its +/- 1, injection 3 times with 8.
8 8 8
-1 +1 +1
7 9 9

I know most if not all of you will go wtf that doesn’t make any sense at all, health but some how it makes sense to me.

So now to make matters worse I have this site: What’s Special About This Number?. That shows some mathematical facts to numbers.

Like 138:

138 is the smallest possible product of 3 primes, one of which is the concatenation of the other two.

My dog died today. She been quiet sick for a while with tumor and just being old in general. I never had the heart to take her in to get euthanized it just seemed wrong to me. If she was going to die at least in her own home and not some clinic.

I feel some what guilty for not giving her attention. It isn’t without reason cause one night a couple weeks ago when I came home I do what I always do go and pet her and she got feral with me and bit my shoe. Luckily I didn’t get bitten but it scared me. She never did that with me before even when she eats I can get close to her and not worry. So that occurrence just made me afraid of her and didn’t want to get too close.

Now I have to carry my house keys with me. Before since she guarded the back entrance we never had to worry about locking the door. Whenever I came home I’d lock it, page and if there were anyone trying to break in she would bark and do her stuff. Now that she is gone its going to change.

I dont remember when we first got her, must have been back nearly 10 years now she was a good dog and will be missed. I dont know if we will be getting a replacement anytime soon, and I doubt we will.

  3. I’m sorry to hear about your dog :(. My dog freckles got really sick too and of old age. She was soooo sweet towards the end. But at times she was nasty. I wished I was a better kid to her instead of being nasty. I have a scar as a memory of her. I’ll show it to you when you come to the states.

    XO’s
