Philosophy of Science Workshop

Oh! Philosophy of Science workshop was soooo interested that I couldn't understand.. Hahaha.. Let me quote some of the examples that the lecturer gave:

A particular turkey has always been fed everyday. So the turkey thought, "I'm going to get food everyday (formulating a law/ theory by observing - Deductive reasoning)." However, on Christmas day, it doesn't get any food.. And yea.. U got it.. it became the food instead (but it's not alive to say this law (that it is fed everyday) is wrong..

Some things can't be falsify: Your horoscope reading. This is my horoscope reading for today (Sagittarius):
Your social agenda is increasing this year so you'd better have extra time AND more fashion in your wardrobe to keep up with it all. A friend will push you into new areas of style which you were previously afraid of. You'll be pleased with the results though.

So how do you falsify this?

Tell me how in the world I should do my assignment?!

Oh yea.. He also say mentioned that if u want to expose someone who is imitating someone (eg. ur friend), ask for your friend's horoscope sign. Haha... Even if he can remember all the details like name and birthday, he or she will go errrr before answering.. Hahaha.. So if u want to imitate someone, remember their horoscope too!
