Out of Time

Time has slipped away too quickly since the last Groote's Gaggle. Don't you feel you often just run out of time?



This week's TIME magazine ran a one-sentence statement:



1.26 MICROSECONDS: "Time that each day has been shortened as a result of Chili's earthquake, which shifted the earth's axis about 3 inches".


Where do they learn this? How did they determined this? And who is they?! I find information such as this little sentence fascinating. Where do these pearls come from? Time didn't make a reference. The statement appeared in a little horizontal bullet on page 13; just a little kernel to be plucked like a seasoned pearl from an oyster.


My word of wisdom is to definitely count your blessings and kiss your kids because you string many more of those microseconds together and you'll not have time to turn around.


peace.
