Hello Earth, what's the matter with You????

Post by Marinus » Tue Jan 01, 2008 5:09 pm

You turn around and turn around, for billions of billions of times. You turn around yourself and you turn around a medium size star :idea: called "Sol" . And everytime you are in a certain position toward that star :idea: , all the humans, that live on you, become completely mad :!:

And I should say, of course there are four special positions in one of your rotations around that star :idea: , because there is an angle of about 23 degrees between that rotation and your rotation around yourself. But the strange :?: thing is: It is not at the moment of those four positions, not even at one of them, but only when one of them has passed and then when you turned another 10 or 11 times around yourself. :?: :?: :?:

But the story becomes stranger and stranger. :?: :?: :?: :?: :?: It happens not even everywhere on you at the same time. It only happens on whatever what place on you, at the moment when that place is exactly at the opposite posotion of you as that star :idea: is, so it's completely dark there.

I find it almost unbelievable and completely un-understandable (if that's an understandable word) but then it happens that humans are having big party's with champagne and fireworks, they hug and kiss each other, and even if they never say a word to each other, at that moment they are close friends and wish each other all the best wishes.


Please tell me, Earth, what's the matter with you :?: :?: :?: :?: :?: :?: :?: :?: :?: :?:

LOL Matt.

Marinus I have wondered the same thing myself. I guess some folks just need a day set aside to mark the fact that 365 other days have gone by.

Same thing with birthdays. Many folks I know really get upset about having birthdays. How crazy is THAT?! I'm glad I have birthdays every year cuz the alternative sucks. Although I don't make a big deal about it either way. I don't stress and I don't deny and I don't expect celebrations or presents.

I guess I'm a bit easy going as they say

Wow Sugar Booger, you are also profound! :shock: But not quite so profound as Marinus. :lol: You seem to have a lighter look at life. 8)
I think I just want to have fun. :D :D 8) Not so profound.....life's too short. :D (it's easy to be an idiot) :P You should try it sometime. :D

Right Matt. If you want to stay young that must mean that you want to die young. Obviously no one stays young forever. Well maybe Dick Clark...but it just seems to me to be so silly.

Why would anyone want to stay young and immature and all that? And if it's their looks that they want to keep young looking, again, why? Looks don't make you who you are. Either does the type of house you live in, the car you drive or the clothes you wear. All that surface stuff means nuttin' if your a jerk (jerk being the nicest word I could come up with).

Ok I'll get off my soap box now :oops:
