A few days ago I had one of those days the readers of this know all too well. I woke up feeling very tired and just generally punky. I struggled thru the daily hour of exercise and that was it for the day. No explaining it, just a bad day. No work got done. Only rest and channel surfing. The next day I awoke refreshed and promtly over did work in the basement and felt tired all the next day. I still have a few lessons to learn in the "what I can do" category.

Today two young fellas are coming over to move all the material from the garage to the basement. I am getting smarter. Goodness knows there is plenty of empty space between my ears for new intelligence to grow (now more space than there was). If I can just live long enough I will become a genius.

Now to that darn comet dust. I have developed a theory that since we all feel a bit stiffer and slower moving as we age, the earth must pass thru a cloud of comet dust or some other unknown stuff in space each year that makes us all feel a bit older. The effect must be cumulative as we age because it does not seem to affect young people. Rather than send more people to the moon to hit golf balls and collect rocks, our scientists should investigate this stuff and either find a way to neutralize it or alter the earth's orbit around the sun to avoid the comet dust. I think this would be a great project for the younger generation and would get them away from their video games for awhile and into something productive. Altering the earth's orbit might just solve global warming as well in the process if they move us just a bit further away from the sun.

I just hope they get on with it and someone takes me seriously before I pass thru any more comet dust.

I hope this brought a smile to some of your faces, writing it did to mine. Someday I may share my thoughts on how to solve the homeless problem, sexual harassment. and several other of life's maladies.
