Every time I fly I visualize the planets and the Earth then it all turns to s_t

I did this in Vegas yesterday afternoon to illustrate the point. You have to love Vegas it just makes things quick and easy.

= the fact that I have to set my watch back or forward implies the Sun moved.

Comments and heavy prescription drugs will be most welcome.

So, I was thinking of going for a walk.
Until I read this.
Now I'm hesitant.
If I turn left and walk backwards will I ever come back?
Or will I come back tomorrow?
Never mind, it's raining anyway.
I'll sleep on it.
And Rory, you should be sent to bed with a damn good spanking after bringing this up!
Do you realize how not plastic old brains like mine are?

Given the dichotomy paradox, like the supposition of Achilles and the Tortoise, you can't go for a walk.

Just another thing that sounds good in philosophy... or perhaps we can move at an infinite speed and just don't know it. :)
