    Do you know how fast you are traveling as you sit at your computer? The earth is spinning at 1,500 kilometers per hour. The earth is going around the sun at 100,000 kilometers per hour. And our solar system is traveling through the Milky Way at 500,000 miles per hour. Sorry, I don't know how fast our galaxy is traveling through space. I'll have to look it up.

    That is pretty amazing but I think the 2 Four Lokos has something to do with my dizziness as well.

    We are on the same inertial path. Confusion is of the mind.

    I'm still convinced earth is the center. Not necessarily of the galaxy or even solar system. Just center of the whole universe and that everything revolves around us. not even just us, me, everything revolves around me, and I'm the center

    Rounded off to 57000 miles pr/hr, anyway it's speeding up as we catch up. How impressive is that just to make it up as you go along

    I also feel like a centre point but not just limited to the universe we know but rather every universe and their opposite parrallels and also all of the dimensions literally revolve around me.

    If our solar system is traveling through the Milky Way at a half million miles per hour, your math is off a little. I find it impressive, that the earth can go that fast for thousands of years without crashing into something.

    must have been the conversion from metric

    I made the shit up but not without guidance. It was the first figure that came up when I investigated the issue many years ago. the salient point of the whole exercise being that we are involved in processes of which we have no physical sensation of whatsoever.

    Lot of room out there. Sometimes it's hard to find someone to talk to, much less bump into. And then after my quadruple bypass life saving surgery I walked out of the hospital lobby and immediately got schmucked by a truck.

    If you lived in NYC, you couldn't avoid bumping into people, but don't try to talk to them. I sympathize with your hospital and truck schmuck. I was in the Hospital last summer with pneumonia and died, but they brought me back. Guess God didn't want me and the devil was afraid I'd take over. I was in a comma for two weeks. Dying is easy, but coming back is a bitch. When I woke up, I was a total invalid, couldn't even move my fingers. Had to go to physical rehab to learn to use my arms and legs again. I was supposed to be there for 14 weeks, but I got myself together in only 2 weeks, because I ain't staying in a hospital for two and a half months. I think I blew the physical therapist mind. I did however enjoy the hot nurses bathing me and wiping my butt. But I didn't get schmucked by a truck when I left.

    obviously I didn't get schmucked. It's an extreme example of what we generally ignore, encouraging procrastination.

    Here is an intelligent five year plan to get all this shit taken care of. Work seven days a week, long hours and save to retire at the end of that term. Problem is at 4 years 364 days there is that damned truck.
