2001: A Space Odessey - Ending Explained

The first time I saw 2001: A Space Odyssey I was in my teens. I had no idea what the heck was going on except it had something to do with a mysterious "black rectangle", and a couple guys in space with a super computer named Hal that malfunctioned. Now that I'm older I still don't know what it's about. This short video does give us a little insight, but I think for most of us it still doesn't quite fit our idea of how a story should end.

Sanctioned Homicide 

Abortion is murder plain and simple. I want you to take a look at these pathetic, ignorant fools celebrating death.

Boccherinin String Quintet

Patrick O'Brian and Adagio Concerto Crosso Op. 6 No. 8 in G Minor

Music soundtrack from one of my favorite movies -- Master and Commander. Inspired by Patrick O'Brian's Aubrey -- Maturin series

I strongly recommend listening to the audio version of these novels narrated by one the best voice actors in the business -- Simon Vance. You can listen for free by downloading the OverDrive App and adding titles via Download Destination, or you can go to Amazon Audio: Aubrey-- Maturin Series and purchase the audio books. 

Adagio from Concerto Grosso Op. 6 No. 8 in G Minor:

The Epitome of Narcissism --even unto death

Recently a Southwest flight made an emergency landing after one of its engines partially exploded. One woman, according to news reports, was killed and several others were injured.

What is almost equally tragic is when a certain man on the Southwest flight live streamed the unfolding terror to his Facebook account. In the photo below you can see the man at the front of the picture shooting the video. If you look to the upper right you will notice someone else doing the same thing, or maybe he or she is taking a selfie. I wonder how many other passengers were posting to their twitter or FB accounts?

This is, to me, is the apotheosis of narcissism. No one on that flight knew if they were going to survive and yet some people had to make a production out of it. And for what? More "likes", more attention? This is more than shameful self-promotion -- this is a mentally deranged people.
