      From the preface of the book Information Wars by Richard Stengel: "In 2010, Eric Schmidt, the former CEO of Google, said we create as much information every two days -- about five exabytes -- as all the information created from the dawn of civilization until 2003."

      Success is measured by your discipline and inner peace. – Mike Ditka

            DID THE PRIME MINISTER OF AUSTRALIA SHIT HIS PANTS IN A MCDONALD’S?

            The answer to the following question implies a great deal about one's own psychology: Would you prefer to live in a world in which the answer to the above question is yes, or no?

            Education is extremely important.

                  No. Plaque is on your teeth. There might be a coprolite in a while though.

                            Last Friday I bought some stuff at a convenience store/Shell station on Hatteras Island for $30.80.

                            Today I was checking the VISA account and there were 2 charges for $30.80, one on Friday and one on Sunday.

                            I called VISA to report a duplicate charge.

                            I did buy fuel on Sunday, but I figured there was no way it was exactly $30.80 worth of fuel.

                            I had a receipt from Friday but not Sunday because the fuel pump printer was broken.

                            After reporting the duplicate to VISA I remembered that I had taken a picture of the pump because someone had put a Biden sticker on it.

                            Now I am waiting on hold to tell VISA to forget about the dispute.

                            So Mr. Biden saved the Blue Whale convenience store from the hassle of disputing the dispute.

                                @mark Something to think about when you can't sleep.

                                How is such a thing even able to be calculated?

                                What if they're off by say 50 trillion years. Do we need to worry?

                                  The universe could possibly avoid eternal heat death through random quantum tunneling and quantum fluctuations, given the non-zero probability of producing a new Big Bang in roughly 10^10^10^56 years
