What is the Daily Movement?
Have
you ever wanted to join a book club, but never had the time?
The Daily Movement blends all of the intellectual stimulation
of a book club with the excitement of a talk show. Thanks to
the Daily Movement, sitting on the toilet doesn't have to be
such a lonely experience.
Here's how it works.
Every day, our moderator picks choice articles from a list
of quality periodicals. When you're busy with nature's
calling, enjoy your reading. But be warned, there are
thousands like you who are all on the same page. So when you
come out of the bathroom, be prepared to discuss the
challenging issues from other Members of the Movement. No, the
Movement is not a radical right wing militia, just an online
community dedicated to keeping all the peoples of the world on
the 'same page'.

WIRED: Ask the Love Engine™ an article by Jack Boulware takes a peek into sex in the 22nd Century. The author envisions a world in which technosexual robots are built from kits with 5-petaflop Intel 1080 quark-charming processors; G6 microcontrollers and a voice activated ETAQ 2.0 chip. Our advice to Jack, lay off the Star Trek for a while, you're starting to scare us. |

In an article dubbed Dues Ex Silico, Frank Tipler lays out his theory for a future computer generated proof of God's existence. He puts forth a novel hypothesis for resurrection of the dead based on the premise that perfect simulation is the thing being simulated. It begs the age-old question, would a perfect and complete virtual simulation of yourself in fact be you? Add your comments |

ESQUIRE: With the onslaught of Y2K, even the most die-hard magazine reader (and we certainly hope you are) gets a little sick of Pol Pot retrospectives. Esquire's 1999 Dubious Achievements proves to be the perfect antidote to the Century in Review glut.
Relive the great moments of '99 such as Newt Gingrich calling his wife during her mother's 84th birthday celebration to tell her he was having an affair with his 33-year-old aide. Or Tori Amos' quip about wine appreciation "I hear the wine…I hear it before I taste it. It's calling me. And then I start to hear it when I'm tasting it. Not that I put crystal suppositories up my ass." BathroomReading.com want to personally thank Tori for that one.

David Friedman treats Esquire readers to a nine-page spread listing everything and anything having to do with the penis. His reason, "if the penis defines us as men, shouldn't we be able to define it as something beyond 'Mr. Happy' "? Dave, we could've done without the detailed reenactment of a prostate exam. In short, "Mr. Happy" certainly works for everyone here at BathroomReading.com, what do you think? Add your comments |

US NEWS AND WORLD REPORT: The cover story Outlook 2000-Inventing The Future predicts major advances in technology that will make our lives healthier, more efficient and last longer. That certainly bodes well for the stock markets that fuel these technology companies, but it does leave important questions unanswered…Does modern innovation make the quality of life better and what responsibility do developed countries have to share modern technology with less developed nation states? |
