Get off my LAWN! "Grumpy Old Farts"

The mother program is held in EPROM (erasable programmable read-only memory) for everyone I know. It's part of the essential deal of Being Here, whatever that is. We're all Here because we're not all There, is what I learned Here.

That's okay, I'll deal with that as best I can when it's my turn to try.

It ain't necessarily a bad thing. It's also why[higher power]gave us calendars.

That higher power turns out to be politicians. They are only higher in their own minds but they do have the power to mess with us. When England adopted the Catholic Pope Gregory’s Georgian calendar, the mostly Protestant population took to the streets. They lost.

Daylight savings is exactly an example of the power to change reality at will.

That was the retail lobby, their PR blamed the farmers to deflect hatred away from them.

Biggest disadvantage of retirement is not knowing whut day it is. They're all pretty much the same.

I don't think that's a disadvantage. Every day is a Saturday like Monday-Saturday, Thursday-Saturday. All I have to remember is which Saturday to put out the trash bin and those pesky Dr appts.

There's always a week or two when my work is thrown off because the EU does not change DST on the same day as The States.

I have a coupla old(er) electronic devices that were preprogrammed with time change dates. Which have been changed. The devices don't know that so I get to re-program them 4 x a year.

We're all Here because...

...everybody has to be somewhere. Which I think in an overarching sense is a reasonable tautology as we perceive space and time.

Rode the scooter to the coffee shop. Erin, the gal that owns the place, has three people working now. I was a little worried she might go out of business. I hope the restaffing is a good sign! I haven't noticed if Sat and Sun afternoons have picked up. The place was usually full at those times back in B.C. I usually go on Sat or Sun morning about 8-8:30 and I'm usually the only one there. Used to be a few folks there in B.C.

Rode the scooter for about a hour, had a few sprinkles. It's not any fun unless it's raining sideways.

Wherever you go, there you are.

Wherever you go, there you are.

I am here even if I don't go anywhere.

It's pretty much 10 'til 2 on HGTV when they show the remodel results. Apparently someone thinks the hand symmetry is pleasing. And it's always on a BFC (big freaking clock).

There you go.

 

[GonePlaid]

There you go.

Or not. Yer choice.

 

[SoulReflection]

I am here even if I don't go anywhere.

I am here even if I am not...

 

[SoulReflection]

There you go.

OK then, I am here unless I went...
