“Time is an illusion. Lunchtime doubly so.”–Douglas Adams
Today’s the day…
May 25. Towel day. It’s a tribute to one of the wittiest writers in recent history. My lunchtime, though, is never an illusion. I’d sooner miss Game of Thrones than miss my lunch. Maybe I’ll even eat something messy at lunch today and bring a towel to clean up the mess. Ah, if only that towel could clean up the mess of my life. 😉

Cosmic Quote #42: Towel Day!

“42.”–Douglas Adams**
Yes, I skipped cosmic quote numbers 39,40 and 41. The logical explanation for this is: Douglas Adams was not a linear thinker, so why not honor him by thinking (and counting) outside the box? The right explanation for this is: I’m one lazy lumpsucker–couldn’t be bothered to churn out the missing numbers before the big event. Happy Towel Day! (**For the uninitiated, “42” was the answer to life, the universe and everything in Adams’ A Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy.)

“Perfect numbers, like perfect men, are very rare.”–Rene Descartes
Happy Pi Day to all you Sheldon Coopers and Amy Farrah Fowlers out there. With Towel Day right around the corner, it’s time to get down, get serious, and do some math. Please solve the following equation: 1 + X = π, and if you are irrational enough to find a rational number for X, either get your own blog or see a shrink. I’ve done both. See you May 25th.
Cosmic Quote(s) #35: President’s Day

“Politics is supposed to be the second oldest profession. I have come to realize that it bears a very close resemblance to the first.”–Ronald Reagan
“May God save the country, for it is evident the people will not.”–Millard Fillmore
Note: in order to get the quote number 42 in time for Towel Day, there may be a slight increase in the frequency of these quote posts.
It’s hard to believe Ronald Reagan actually said something I agree with.
It’s hard to believe Millard Fillmore actually said anything.
At any rate, if you want to know the true spirit of President’s Day, visit your local Target or Best Buy. And if you happen to be a banker, postal worker, teacher or government employee, enjoy your day off. Also, check out one of my favorite blogs, BLAHS winner Millard Fillmore’s Bathtub.
