    Was not that question aimed at @cat0703a asking if today was Friday, since people at different time zones around the globe may "answer" her question differently at the exact same moment?

    Who else crossed the international date line twice by the age of two?

    Does that mean you're actually two days older/younger than your expected age? Have you adjusted your birthday accordingly on your driver's license?

    Didn't I cross once in each direction, so wasn't I younger for a day when I crossed the 2nd time (heading East) after I was suddenly older by a day after crossing the first time (heading West)?

    @cmsienk, Why is it called West Palm Beach? Isn't it clear over on the East side of the country, in fact not even on the West side of Florida? Don't I live ~3,000 miles West of that place?
    Then again, isn't South Dakoda way further North than most states? 🤔😉😜😂

    Following similar logic, my parents live NORTH of me but at a LOWER elevation...should I describe going home as travelling UP or DOWN?

    Wouldn't the answer to that require first finding some kind of equivalence between latitudinal miles and vertical feet? Aren't my Southern California relatives both South of me and slightly lower in elevation, yet don't they still say, "When are you coming up here for a visit?"

    Are they as directionally confused as I am?

    Wouldn't it be possible they are not directionally challenged but gramatically challenged?

    Wasn't it more fun imagining something spectacular like parachuting into a Cafe to mark making a million dollars by age 20?

    If I had made a million dollars EVER, let alone by age 20, would I not be driving a very different car right now?

    what is your degree in?

    While technically it's physics with a concentration in astronomy, doesn't it sound more impressive when I tell people I majored in astrophysics?

    people are not impressed with a physics degree?
    what is wrong with them?

    Considering I work as a satellite engineer, are not physics and engineering degrees a dime a dozen around here? But ASTROPHYSICS, doesn't that have a nice ring to it?

    Didn't I once dream up, as a joke, a fictional PhD in Metaphysical Epistemology? 😂
    (Wasn't I somewhat inspired by having learned of a PhD program in the History of Consciousness?)

    Does being conscious our whole waking lives make us experts in the History of Consciousness?

    Does that mean more time for good things, @frankwbrown ?

    Last night, didn't I sign up for a class at 8:30am, and wondered if I'd feel like getting up early enough? I guess couldn't you say the silver lining is that now I should be able to go early and do a little tai chi in the studio before class?

    Oh, wasn’t I thinking of coffee and blueberry pancakes? 🤣

    Aren't my blueberries all gone?
    Wasn't it cereal w/ blackberries for me this morning? And a bottled cold frappuccino instead of brewed hot coffee?

    Doesn’t that sound like a nice light meal before exercise?

    🙋‍♀️ But wasn't mine intentional (and 5am my time)?
