Thought for the day....

Before everyone puts their brain in neutral for the weekend, ponder this:

1) Einstein proclaimed that all objects in the universe are always traveling through spacetime at one fixed speed—that of light.
2) Thus light does not get old; a photon that emerged from the big bang is the same age today as it was then. There is no passage of time at light speed.

I found it easier to retire, all Saturdays are followed by Saturday.

My calendar looks a bit different from everyone else's. I don't do Monday, so starting where most folks have Monday my calendar is:

Tuesday Eve,
Tuesday,
Hump Day,
Friday Eve,
Frinally!
Saturday and Sunday remain unchanged.....

There is 1 really good thing about Florida's August heat and humidity -- The chances of someone hiding in your car's back seat, waiting for you to return, is zero.

Rule # 1 ; leave the windows cracked open in a really junk car you keep in the parking lot when you get off work every afternoon.
