The philosopher, Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, believed that all of history was progressing in a triadic movement, resolving the dialectic between a thesis and its antithesis into a new synthesis, which in turn became a new thesis with its own antithesis, resolving into yet another synthesis, etc. Eventually, all of this movement progressed towards the pinnacle of human history, the Absolute.
Thus, it is with great pleasure that I announce that we have attained this Absolute. We have reached the pinnacle of human technological development through the Internet's ability to link us all in a global community. Just in case you wondered what the French do with all their spare time, what with 35 hour work weeks, month long vacations in August, and not helping us invade Iraq, allow me to clear that question up for you with this link.
