Things I recently read that spin the noggin sitting atop my weary shoulders.

That as I write this and you eventually read it, we are spinning or moving close to 1000 mph around the center of the Earth.

While that is happening, the Earth is moving 68,000 mph around the Sun.

Simultaneously as all that spinning and speeding is going on, the Sun is moving at close to 500,000 mph around the center of our Milky Way Galaxy, ... which in turn is traveling through space at well over 1 Million mph!

And all the time, we think we are standing still, well at least most of us, for I know Zanardi is always going somewhere at least 80 mph and ePiTau's brain is going even faster trying to mathematically explain it all with algorithms ... while no matter how fast any of us are actually going, Babu is already there. Gerard and Aran can explain this much better philosophically, Dhyana psychologically, Brainiac neurologically, while ZVS eventually composes a song about it ... which will inspire Ananda to create a transcendental chart explaining the theory of everything, including the 10 websites composed to show it to the world. Meanwhile, Meta scratches his head and wonders how to eventually explain all this madness he has been a part of to his daughter when she grows up, oh yeah, Tapati will include these scenarios in her upcoming best selling novel, screenplay and movie. I can see it now, all spinning and moving over 1 Million mph, expanding to somewhere, to some point in time.

Somewhere in this mad calculation of words in time and space, I thank Plato, Galileo, Einstein, Proust, Whitman, Captain Beefheart, Bhakta Happy and Timothy Leary for showing the way.

Sorry, but I have nothing philosophically to add but that we are going somewhere real fast. As I dislike tardiness, I find that a comforting thought.

Knock, knock.

Who's there?

Knock

Knock who?

Knock, knock...

I sense a quality of timeliness in the world of timelessness, hmm, this may indeed be what they call the Zen life.

Mr. Knock is always coming and going while being there all the time, the nicest fellow I've ever met without actually meeting ... the only member of GR that never registered or posted yet contributes continuously, perhaps still searching for Who ... knows what?
