fly me to the fragment

Are your fragments coalesced yet? I start collecting mine days before Friday and by Thursday I’m ready to dump them on you. Don’t worry they don’t stain. You probably know what I’m talking about but if you don’t and you happened to stumble over here for the first time please take a look and then direct yourself to the Friday Fragment collector, Mrs. 4444.

 

It snowed today. Now it is January 12 so this typically would be not be anything worth reporting for a Chicagoland winter. But for some reason which I’m NOT complaining about, winter has been postponed this year.  No shoveling, no complaints.  So far, it’s not much but enough to shovel.

Do you know much about black holes? I have read a number of physic books so I understand the concept. There is astronomical evidence that a big one exists at the center of our galaxy. 

One of the characteristics of a black hole is the crossing of the point of no return (fancy name is event horizon). Have you ever experience the event of not realizing the time spent following links on the internet? I think there might be black holes on the internet, so be careful.

This pinterest site shows signs of being a potential black hole internet site. I had heard of it not too long ago and thought it’s just of lots of fashion, hair styles, home decorating and shopping stuff up there. I could care less. 

Then FF collector, Mrs. 4444, mentioned it on her FF post and I respect her suggestions so I took a deeper look at it. I was surprised about the variety of things that users collect up there. You can find hunting, sports, beer, and even junk robots. I joined. I don’t have too much yet but take a look:

As we age and our focus dulls, often our conversations turn into word guessing games. Have you had this happen yet?  Don't worry there is still time.  The guessing game can provide comic relief in some situations.

“Oh what was it I was going to say It was somewhere we were and I was laughing about something.”

“That’s pretty vague. How would I know but here’s a few clues from our conversation so far: teens, parties, the beach, seagulls, sunscreen...” 

“No that doesn’t help. Oh darn, it was a good story too.” 

“Well maybe it will come you later.” 

“Oh, oh, now I remember. Remember the time you dropped your ice cream cone on the back seat and then tried to lick it off?” 

“No not really.”
