inane thought that is really annoying me today
Nov 30th
There are 24 hours in a day.
There are 60 minutes in an hour.
There are 60 seconds in a minute.
Yet seconds are divided into 1/10 or 1/100.
All of a sudden our measuring standards go from base 60 to base 10.
We go from an ancient Egyptian standard to Metric.
Why all of a sudden does this really annoy me? And why did it take me 28 years to realize this?
Now if you’ll excuse me I have to go convert my sundial to digital.

So as my site closes in on 400 hits (gasp!), a few quick thoughts:
- No, it doesn’t count as a hit when I preview the page.
- No, my Mom isn’t responsible for over half the hits. Actually, I would be surprised if my Mom was responsible for ANY of the hits.
- No, I have not quit my day job.
- Yes, my dogs are still alive, even though I haven’t written about them lately.
I’m feeling random today, so jump inside my head.
KB Toys announced they’re closing down today. This is bitter, as a toystore from my youth is going away, but sweet because can you More >
