This is wild!
In our exhibit of artistic model Noah's Arks, we have a section with arks by an artist who re-imagines the ark as different types of modern vehicles - an ocean liner, an airplane, a hot-air balloon, and so on. Two days ago I wrote to the artist with a suggestion of another vehicle that he should create:
Then, yesterday, none other than Elon Musk posted the following:
What a crazy coincidence!
Meanwhile, can anyone help with the following:
- Bringing a suitcase of model Noah's Arks from TEANECK
- Putting a nine-foot hammerhead shark in a lift from TEANECK
- Putting some seven-foot metal bars on a lift from anywhere in the US
If so, please email me. Will pay any fees involved!

There was that disaster movie- 2012, was it?- in which the government builds literal giant arks.
ReplyDeleteThe disaster was a flood, hence the rescue device was an Ark. If these people are "re-imagining" the Ark, they have to "re-imagine" the disaster too. And of course they have to "re-imagine" the story itself, to make Noach's wife and daughter in laws the heroes (strong women), reverse the roles of the dove and the raven (racial wokeness) and make the rainbow into a sign of divine favor, rather than perversion.
ReplyDeleteBut why not, right? We already totally misunderstand the whole point of the story by focusing on the trivial details elements, like the animals. Might as well just change the story, too.
And this is the guy who claimed that *I* need help for being obsessed!
DeleteI have experienced amazing and unbelievable coincidences. They are surprising but should be expected and do not require supernatural explanations. ACJA
ReplyDeleteThe drawing that Musk showed was most likely an AI drawing. Who knows how long it will take for a physical model to be done by AI?
