Cable is dying. Some predict that by 2030 it will be completely dead.. Here is an article that is detailing how streaming is taking over our lives and pop culture. And this is one future shock I am in favor of.. Cable and DirectTV and all the like give us a plate full of garbage.. the crap that is broadcast so often us unneeded. I have one friend who has completely gone off the grid known as cable, and only streams.. He’s perfectly fine with that.  Netflix and Hulu are the way to go.. in the next 20 years, we will also have more options when it comes to streaming.. Cable will indeed by dead by 2030.

Whoever posted it would like you to believe it is a flying horse in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. There are a ton of theories already online, including the possibility that it is a balloon which looks like a horse. Others who cannot discern properly are quoting scripture .. But what is clear is this: Pigs cannot fly, nor can horses. Someone needs to go back to the drawing board and get a better horse. Or maybe it was a drone in a horse’s body? Whatever it was, it’s comic relief for your Saturday morning..
Either that or the end times are upon us..
