Post by: Matt on September 14, 2011, 05:32:20 pm

Have a nice night.

And for tonight's trivia, do you know who Carnac is without searching the web?

I guess I can stop pounding the refresh button then.  ;)

Re Carnac: I was just barely too young to really know who he was, even though I do.

Yes.  As in Jonny Carson.

Carnak will guess the answer to how you want your media organized.

Steve Allen was the orginal Answer Man.  Given an answer...

"Go West Young Man."

Steve could guess the question...

"What do wascally wabbits do when they get tiwed of wunning awound?"

I miss those guys.

OK, are you saying, Jim, that there will be a new automated media organisation/tagging system in MC? And Carnac is its code name, like Red October was for codec settings? I hope that's what you're saying.

Implement Carnac, and I think we can rename MC as Chuck Norris.

I'll see your Answer Man, Carnacs.....and give you.... "Deep Thought" which is of course designed to come up with the Answer to The Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything.  Beat That Chuck Norris (I've now gone into hiding)
...
...
One downside is that "Deep Thought" may tag all your files with "42"  ;D

But it took thousands of years to come up with that answer, I need my tagging done quicker :-)

If it speeds things up I have lots of pocket lint to hire developers.

Let's take it one more level of indirection:
SCTV (Canadian, eh? This is with Rick Moranis and Joe Flaherty) does a cross of an old US tv show called the Lone Ranger with the Tonight Show. It's hilarious (and very un-PC). If you don't want to watch the whole 6 minutes, start at 1:55 for the applicable segment ;)
