Question of the Day: Friday, November 20, 2009
Lady Blue reports that today is Absurdity Day. So what do you make of that? I was thinking of making a big pile of donuts. How about you?

Could you word that a bit differently, VR? A big pile of donuts made by a large, (but cute) hairy dog? The visual that comes to mind is, well . . . absurd. Ah, what the heck. I'm in. |

When did question of the week become question of the day? I take a 2 month sabbatical and all 'ell breaks loose.

Blame it on our short attention span. We've all got ADHD. What's worse (or better, depending on your point of view) is that we also have no sense of time (or just plain no sense). or we just can't follow the rules (what rules you say?), and so EVERY DAY IS NOW DONUT DAY. See what happens when you're not around to keep us in line? |

Whoever came up with Absurdity Day was an underachiever.

It’s also the day when they’re going to have another go at revving up the Large Hadron Collider in Switzerland! "If all goes well, we’ll start injecting particles into the LHC tonight" said CERN Director General Rolf Heuer.” Assuming today’s tests are successful, they plan to start colliding particles in February. |

OPPS! World Philosophy Day was yesterday. It's celebrated each year on the third Thursday of November.
I despise holidays that don't have the decency to arrive on the same date each year! Sorry for the confusion! |

The moon should behave that way also. I get so confused when it rises half an hour later each day/night and changes its appearance all the time. You never see the same face two nights in a row. What a fickle orb. |
