What miracles await

 I began to notice these little advertisements below the stories. You know the stories that show up on your feed that you have to click on to open. As I glanced at them it came to me, these are the same ads you would find on the back of comic books ! They cover everything from muscle building to gaining x-ray vision ! Of course some of them are a little risque for the comic books, but in today's' world I can't be certain about that. It has been quite a number of years since I bought a comic book and I wonder if those ads are still there ? Mostly I remember sea monkeys, x-ray glasses and ads to sell Grit magazine and earn a bicycle.
 I couldn't help but start to wonder about all of this. Just why do the greatest scientific achievements first appear on the back of comics and now spam on the internet ? Is it because all the money that was spent on research left nothing for reporting ? I've seen ads to make belly fat just disappear. Take a pill, that the Doctors and weight loss clinics don't want you to know about, and just like that, six pack abs ! I can learn any language I want in a matter of days. Hey, this is the program the government uses so you know it is effective and cost efficient. And those are only a few examples of the miracles that await. And they are miracles, it even says so in the advertisement. Shoot I can even become a Minister and create my own miracles if I want too, legal in all fifty states.
 There are other things there that don't require you to buy anything, they are completely free, only pay shipping and handling. I've often thought that seems reasonable enough but those handlers must make good wages because the shipping isn't that much. Funny, I've never seen a job offering for that position though. These days you can get some stuff as a free download. Just put it on your computer and enjoy. You can opt out at anytime. No commitment necessary. Your satisfaction is guaranteed ! I love that. No need for a lawyer, I can do my own will and some other legal work completely free. Well you do have to buy the download for those because, after all, it took a real lawyer to prepare those forms. That's understandable.
 You know I am glad the government stepped in and prevented the further spread of those x-ray glasses. They were being sold in the sixties before we really understood the dangers, thank goodness Uncle Sam interveined. I'm thinking the government may have done something with those drinking birds too. You know the ones, You just put them in front of a glass of water and they keep drinking it. Up and down, up and down. Free energy ! Almost perpetual motion. They must have put them on the shelf alongside the carburetor that made your car get two hundred miles to the gallon. I wonder what the danger is ?
 Now that I am thinking about it, I wonder why the mainstream news never catches any of those stories like the Enquirer does ? They never seem to have the inside scoop. Extra, seems to come the closest to gathering those stories. The Enquirer has known about visiting aliens for decades but not CBS or ABC. I wonder why that is ? Well, no matter we have the internet now, all the truth is on there. I can just check a few websites and have the information I want. I'll always be grateful to Al Gore for inventing the internet.
 I gotta go now and check the ads. You never know what breakthrough in science or technology may have occurred. Maybe I can finally get that GYROCOPTER ! Just fly to work and back, now how cool is that ? Door to door sales have declined over the years so I don't think I can sell Grit or Boy's Life magazine anymore. There must be a way to earn that new bicycle though or a video game set. Maybe one of those I phones ! You never know what miracles await.
