Greeneyes! I’m doing good! What about you?

It’s very nice to see you again.

Hey there, greeneyes! How's it been going?

Katina never stops by, Minnie hardly but occasionally. New cycle, old ones left by the wayside.

Nice to see quite a few older members stopping by that haven't for a while.

Very true.... adding some much needed spice to this joint. Greeneyes, long time no speaky! How's the kid doing?

Also, it's nice to see Geisha back in here... been a while, missy!

Yeah, and not only is it june, but the month is half way done.

Too fast. Next thing you know I'll be working again, well I'm working now, but I'm talking after 2nd year of college is over.

Yeah

You're born, you're a baby for half your life and it's the hardest thing ever. Then for 3/4 of the next half you go to school, then for 1/2 of the remaining you work, then retire, then DIE!

Isin't life great?

I like the box of chocolates that has the map inside stuck to the top of the lid that tells you where the good chocolates are. So you can avoid the mistake of getting mint!

I know, it's really frightning. I remember thinking, 'wow, 6th grade went by faster than 5th' and then the next year, even faster, at this rate I'll be 65 next week...

On a slightly side note; I wonder if it has to do with the fact that as a kid, you process more of reality, since you have very few memories(taking in 80% of what is happening) and as you get older, you take in less since your memory starts to fill(taking in only 65% of what is happening). As an audio guy, it seems like a sample rate issue.

I've thought about it in the same way and I think that's really what it comes down. As you get older, many of the little curiousities and so forth lose their shine and certain things are just more mundane.

Yeah supostly a brain can hold about 2TB of data, so I can imagine how fast that fills up. Basic stuff like the alphabet and language probably takes up a few 100 gigs alone. Instead of clusters, it's cells.

Your long term memory probably becomes more important as well, as in when you are a child, you probably are not accessing your long term memory as much as when you hit your late teens and on.

E.g.=80% of your system resources are spent on short term memory as a child, analysing everything where as an adult doesn't really analyse much, just lives life, spending only 30% of your resources on observing reality via short term memory. Perhaps the more STM you use, the longer time seems to happen, STM being much quicker(3 ST memories recalled in the time it took one LT memory to be recalled - you waste 3x the time recalling LT memories, wasting your day?)

Whatever, food for thought, and I'm outta here, work week is over!

Yeah makes sense and with time you learn to tweak your brain. Ex: you don't really need the telepathy service running, or the testosterone resource manager. But then again, they start installing all these anti-aids and anti-flu and anti-epetisB programs and then you have to format all over again.

ok, maybe we brought this too far.

I had a flat tire out on my postal route the other day. I tried calling my supervisor to have someone sent out to change it, and nobody answered the phone for about ten minutes. I hate it when that happens.
