Monkey business, plumber problems, future visions

Hello there. Here are some stories for you to review:

• That whole hundred monkeys on a hundred typewriters thing? Probably not likely to produce the works of Shakespeare.
• Rookie plumber burns down $12 million mansion on his first day. Now that is sure to affect his performance review.
• AT&T "Visions of the Future" videos from 1993 (see links to parts 1 through 6 below). I actually remember seeing this way back when and thinking it was cool. Now I just mourn that it hasn't materialized or I dread that fashion and hair style will revert in the near future when this tech is available.
