open letter to peter g. balbus
brian December 1st, 2005 in open letters, the futuredear peter g. balbus,
as one of the world’s premiere futurists, please indulge the professional curiosity of this aspiring futurist.
i know your field is hard to break into, but i feel i have the “intangibles” required to be an all-star futurist. would you mind evaluating some of my amatuer futurist predictions? this is what i have so far:
1) you won’t answer this email
2) my girlfriend will leave me shortly after i resign my current career to pursue futurism
3) oprah’s army of androids will destroy wyoming in early 2012
4) the professional association i founded, “futurists for america” will reach its enrollment plateau at 3 members
5) 2 members will thereafter resign due to the high enrollment fees.
6) someone will posthumously find this post, see that all of my predictions have come true, and i will be known forever as the greatest futurist.
well, let me know what you think? do i have a shot in your industry? ha ha, almost gotcha! (see prediction #1).
sincerely,
brian skowron
future futurist

peter g. balbus = future brian skowron
i don’t see it.
in that picture i’m holding a digital camera that ben dropped and subsequently broke.
exactly as I had predicted three days earlier!
lol remember when you predicted that ben was going to kick your ass for breaking his camera?
other way around, joey. it was my camera, and i predicted that ben would break it. and then breakdance.
you can’t actually expect me to keep track of you people’s lives.
brian: how’s life in portland?
very liberal.
portland?
i’m out of the loop.
what happened to new york?
not liberal enough.
ben’s in portland. you guys should meet up.
again, not liberal enough
