Blimey, I can remember the adverts for those \'cross your heart bras\'; I never tried one though.

Another great one!
I’m glad I read it after Santita’s posting! I needed something to cheer me up...and your “Eclipse” certainly did!

I know you wrote this for the crater good of mankind in mind but such a cheesy subject.

Good fun.

THE FUNERAL
BRIAN & ANGELA said:

MIKE ~ PADDY ~ ALEX attended PETER\'s FUNERAL and they were a bit embarassed as each of the owed HIM £10 pound and he had no dependents !
Mike took two fivers out of His Wallet and solemnly tossed them into the GRAVE !
Paddy tossed in TEN EURO assuming the exchange was 1:1
ALEX said he was a nice wee Mon so I\'ll gie Him a 20% interest ! With a smile he wrote out a CHEQUE for £12 and tossed the in the GRAVE.
Paddy said that was very generous ALEX ~ I guess he\'ll be able to cash it En El Banco del Spirito Sancto

Thanks MIKE very DROLL poems and jokes about DEATH (the last taboo) are always funny unless one (which we are not) is in the middle of a bereavement ! Don\'t forget our FUSION on CHRISTMAS ~ Love & Blessings ANGELA & BRIAN 🧡🧡🧡 😎

I will sing \'Supercalafraga…... wotsit\'. They will think it\'s gobbledegook.

THE FUNERAL
dusk arising said:

I hope they\'re not going to burn his remains,... just imagine the pollution.

I shall definately request a hole be dug for me and, clad in a cardboard coffin, i hope to be unceremonially dropped into it. Not a show i would expect much of an audience for.

My first laugh of the day. Thank you Michael.

THE FUNERAL
orchidee said:

That\'s a bit much, if he can\'t be bothered to attend yours! Eh? Doh!
I shall be there - to sing a dirge. Won\'t be any different from my usual singing, mind ya!

NOW THEN
dusk arising said:

These days of future past have led me to believe that last weeks job tomorrow will be late unless, with the benefit of hindsight, should i chose to return, without wishing to make a prediction upon the likelihood of reaping the benefits of a penalty clause.

NOW THEN
Laura🌻 said:

Michael,

Nice write Dr. Who! My head is spinning with the nows, the whens, the soons, etc.

“Now Then” let me compliment you on your artwork! Love the geese in flight!

How\'s that evening going M? By the time I found out what Carpe Diem meant, there was none of the day left to seize. Doh!

Love how your crazy mind works

NOW THEN
Goldfinch60 said:

Clever write Michael, but didn\'t we have that conversion in a years time where we talked about all our nows in the future and all our whens with Orchi in the present or maybe back in the days of 2043.

\"Today is the tomorrow that you worried about yesterday\"

NOW THEN
orchidee said:

Did our discussion lead you (or both of us) up the garden path? And why would it lead us up a garden, of all things?! It was good to have that chat with you tomorrow (eh?).

TIME
BRIAN & ANGELA said:

In some ways UNCLE MIKE we take time & the passage of time for granted. Because the Earth rotates round the SUN in 24 hours. We call that a DAY and divide it into 24 hours (and minutes & seconds etc) and we carry devices to keep track of time. There are also natural markers which Man used before Clocks were invented. Sunrise ~ Sunset and Day (bright) & Night (dark). So Man developed a routine Wake up ~ Work for eight hours ~ Leisure for eight hours ~ Sleep for eight hours and so on ad finitum. This is the pattern I have grown used to over the past 18 years ~ it seems kinda natural & human ! Are all Solar Planets the same ? No ! A day on Mercury is 60 Earthdays and a day on Venus is 210 Earthdays ~ so three days in Prison on Venus would be a whole Earth Year. MARS (which BUZZ ALDRIN has chosen as an Earth Overspill) has a 25 hour day ~ BUT No liquid water ~ Oxygen ~ Fertile Soil and its too cold etc ~ A NON-STARTER ! The four outer planets have shorter days the Earth (in hours) J (10) S (11) U (17) N (16) This would cause headaches for the Unions if ever we colonised them ! So we come back to the BIG QUESTION which Science cannot answer ! Why is the EARTH the only Habitable planet we have found in the Milky Way so far. Why is a 24 hour day so suitable for H Sapiens ~ Why is our Climate (average temperature 16C and rising !) Atmosphere just right 1 part O2 to 4 parts N2 (inert carrier gas) Abundant liquid water which cycles & purifies itself ~ free Energy from the Sun and a symbiotic Flora & Fauna etc etc ! Did it all happen by chance OR is there a CREATOR ? When we talk about time ~ We open Pandora Box ! Stephen Hawkins is reputed to have once said \"Evangelical Christians\" know were all the Matter in the Universe came from and why there is Design Beauty Purpose & Order on Planet Earth ~ GOD CREATED IT & CONTROLS IT ~ Science has no explanation ! Thanks for raising the question of TIME ~ Yours as always BRIAN Love the CHEE CHEE GOOSE !

At last, praise comes home! My great great great grandpa invented time, or was it his dad?... Anyway appreciation at last.

It took its time.

Was time really invented?

Yes, why do they say Basil Brush is daft? I\'ve met many talking foxes in my time. You too?!

TIME
orchidee said:

A fine write and pic Michael. Now, I\'m all in a muddle. When is \'now\'? One second later and that \'now\' has gone, and it\'s a new \'now\'. that\'s a lot of \'nows\' - every second of the day. Will there be enough nows to go round?
You spending the extra hour tonight visiting all the Berles at home?
