It all depends on whether a glass is half empty or half full.

The glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

Exactly! The bigger issue, the one that really needs to be addressed is, how much wood, would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood? I mean really!?? That one keeps me up at night. Deep stuff.

you???

have you considered that Peter Piper picked

a peck of pickled peppers. A peck of pickled

peppers Peter Piper picked. If Peter Piper

picked a peck of pickled peppers, Where's

the peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked?

Forever seems to come fast.

I want to make that very clear."

some people say life is short but that is not true it is the longest thing you'll ever do

and what is IN the glass! If it is rotten bacteria infested raw chicken juice then it being 1/2 empty is the optimistic point of view.

i know how that feels

someone told me "today was a long day" I said "No it was remarkably similar in length than any other day"

The phenomenological experience of enduring the passage of time is relative,
as Einstein pointed out.

the perception or the experience? and keep in mind that when one is moving faster that something else (say 2 clocks one going mock 3 and another relatively stationary) the one in going faster will show an earlier time than the one that was stationary. But that is not the case in my example as in it, both parties were going the same relative speed so there would be no time dilation.

The experience of the passing of time is relative, Only. What may have seemed like five minutes
to you could be experienced as ten or fifteen for somebody else. So, where I think today was
remarkably similar in length than any other day, someone else could justifiably opine the day was
long as fuck! Our ability to perceive time depends upon how quickly our nervous system appre-
hends and then processes the assault on our senses; some people apprehend and process sen-
sory perceptions faster/slower than others. Besides, the past has no properties to accurately
measure, so what we are really talking about here is not whether a day was "long" or otherwise,
but how we remember the past, which can be so subjective and dependent upon the "mind", but
good luck with measuring that. All of this hinges on the real existence of "time" and our agreement
of what it is.

I'm loving this conversation, by the way!

Something in a thirty-acre thermal thicket of thorns and thistles thumped and thundered threatening the three-D thoughts of Matthew the thug - although, theatrically, it was only the thirteen-thousand thistles and thorns through the underneath of his thigh that the thirty year old thug thought of that morning.

ummmmmmmmmm...

when I was in Arkansas I saw a saw that could out saw any saw I ever saw saw. If you happen to be in Arkansas and see a saw that can out saw the saw I saw saw I'd like to see the saw you saw saw.

Ingela said:

Yeah forever is a mighty long time. But I'm here to tell you, there's something else...

"Oh, that comes under the standard 9-day response period and we will not be out to your premises for at least that many business days BUT what I can do is move this up on the list so that you will only have to wait 3 days for them to be out there."

This is so deep that i can't understand even if i tried, so i won't. Good Bye.

this one time I was at a zoo--when I was like 5--and I was looking at the lions and I saw a little bunny hopping about... the lions did not care one was licking his self... seemed like an odd thing to remember.
