Only Time

You know, we often complain about how little time we have to do this and that (or to not be able to do this and that). Time is relative (i know, i know...). No, seriously, I've figured that the more stuff you do, the more your day expands... and the more you are able to do. That applies to things like modules in college, that wacky hobby, or just wasting time for that matter. You do less, and your day contracts. There is one catch; you can complain that you are short of time no matter how efficiently you do manage time. Sorta.
Anywho; remember Dunbar in Catch-22? He filled his days with boredom, because it elongated his life. In his opinion, if youre having fun, time flies, and you die early. Now I'm not saying that YOU should get as bored as you possibly can, but something more to the effect of 'filling the unforgiven minute with sixty seconds worth of distance run'.
time is moolah.

Men and islands

"No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main. If a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less, as well as if promontory were, as well as if a manor of thy friend's or of thine own were. Any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind; and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee."
- John Donne.
Every man is an island. We are born alone, and we die alone.
Conflicting views. What's your take?

The other day, I was reading some messages on my phone, and I realized that the English 'language' is going to the horses. In the quest for that oh-so-elusive coolness, slang (especially messaging slang) is becoming, well, stranger and stranger. Examples?

Well you get the picture. So after having spoken English for eons, it does seem akward when you text someone back: 'I'm sorry, I didn't quite get you.'
In conclusion, git a Lyf, losaz :P
