Re: Leisurely Scribbles part 2

saw this recently written on a circular hanging thingy

A Round Tuit


This is a Tuit. Guard it with your life as Tuits are hard to come by,especially the round ones. This is an indispensable item. It will help you become a more efficient worker. For years we have heard people say " I'll do it as soon as I get a round tuit" Now that you have one, you can accomplish all thoses things you put aside until you got a ROUND TUIT!!

Yes it is possible but don’t ask me to try to explain it. You must have been watching that Quantum Physics program on BBC4 Spitty.
Try the two coin spinning thing he demonstrated, take two similar coins and spin them at the same time on a table, stop one deliberately letting the other spin freely, if the one you stopped lands on heads the other will land on tails when it stops on it’s own, and the other way around in your stopped coin lands on tails, never fails. The presenter says even if one coin is at the other side of the world or on Mars in still happens the same way, distance is no object provided they are spun at the same time, although you would need extraordinary long arms for the Mars attempt. It’s amazing stuff and the beauty of it is that it baffles everyone, even Einstein.

Not if extinguishing a fire would deny warmth to beings benefiting from it. A "Flob" may benefit the "Flemish".

True, or a Blob may extinguish the squeamish, it did in the 1956 film with Steve McQueen.

Re: Leisurely Scribbles part 2

Ah,but y'see a VERY little-known fact is...Schodinger invented the microwave oven...[steam powered,natch],so his cat was just a BIT miffed at becoming famous,nipped out the back [where the coal was shovelled in] and put a teddybear in the oven in his place. This was never made public as people like Maxwell,Hertz & of course Percy Spencer got the hump.And that's all TRUE,that is-cross me 'art,guvnor

I thought all tuits were round, although some are harder to get around than others.

Re: Leisurely Scribbles part 2

IMPORTANT WORDS

Sometimes the important words are only small, like adore, or love, or care
We can shout them loud or whisper them quietly, to those whose lives we share
To say them we should mean them, not feign there depth or meaning
For the heart it takes them all in, there’s no security or screening

Sometimes the important words to those we love and care the most for
Are the easiest to retrieve from our repertoire of words stored
They may be overused, though not with deliberate intention
Sometimes our human brain is a little short on word retention

Sometimes the important words are not always those we say
They lay bereft and all alone, waiting to be spoken on another day
To say them may be truthful, they may hurt, cause someone pain
Better not to utter them, hide them away, nothing to gain

Sometimes the important words can no longer be contained
They spill out as the truth will when too long it’s been restrained
But their honesty will quell the ache, and knowing is all for good
To deal with truth and honesty, then we are not misunderstood

Sometimes the important words are not the easiest to say
For some to say, I love, I care, it’s just not been there way
It doesn’t mean that they’re unfeeling or uncaring, not at all
They’ll be there in times of need, you won’t need to ask or call

Sometimes in using the important words, something’s lost along the way
As so many of us hear and utter them, several times a day
We say Take Care, I Miss You, I Love You, You’re My World
A few words amongst the thousands that at our ears are hurled

Sometimes the important words travel continents and space
They’re used in every language, by men and women of every race
It doesn’t matter how you say them, or whatever is your style
Tell someone you love and care for them, say the words, and watch them smile.

If you have no one to say it to, or to say the words to you
Don’t worry, say it to yourself, it’s ok to love yourself too

That is truly beautiful Linda, did you compose that yourself?, top marks if you did.
