    * It will take less time to take Iraq than it
    took Janet Reno to take the Branch Davidian
    compound. That was a 51-day operation.

    * It took less time to find evidence of chemical
    weapons in Iraq than it took Hillary Clinton
    to find the Rose Law Firm billing records.

    * It took less time for the 3rd Infantry Division
    and the Marines to destroy the Medina Republican
    Guard than it took Teddy Kennedy to call the
    police after his Oldsmobile sunk at Chappaquiddick.

    * It will take less time to take Iraq than it took
    to count the votes in Florida in the year 2000!

    Guns only have two enemies: Rust and Liberals....

    to change things. I guess this life long Rep. is going to change over to the Dem. party. Just can't stand the way we've been pushed from middle class to lower class. A Reagan and 2 Bushs are enough to make any one tired. Income went from $75,000 to a low $3500 in just 2 years. God I love this country, but the politics are kill'n me.

    There just NEVER is enough.

    I just went and got a used tool box for my truck today. After I got off at lunch, I ran to town and bought the box, stopped to get a burger, and get some paint and primer.

    Get home and start working on the box. Crap, not enough paint. Dumbass me, went cheap to boot and the first paint was crap. Back to the hardware and bought rustoleum and primer. Took MUCH less paint to do it, but the tool box is painted.

    Ran off to do night feed. Now I am waiting for the paint to dry and mount the box on my truck. It is HOT outside, and I HATE the heat.

    I still have 14000 other things to do, amoung them getting more planted in my garden. A neighbor stops in and asks if I would till his garden when it dries out. I said no problem, just call me when you want it done.

    I have work to do on the house, amoung that is redoing the south porch. Boards rotted over the winter and broke. Whole thing needs rebuilt. I also need to get my outdoor forced air woodburner done and installed.

    Then there is the bench the wife wants the boards redone on....

    Some facia boards on the hose need replaced......

    My truck needs an oil change, a drivers door, and both fron transaxles replaced.

    Wifes truck needs a tune up and an oil change.

    F**k. When the hell am I ever gonna be DONE. [:(!]

    I saw a program on the Science Channel last night about time. A scientist at Duke University came up with a hypothesis that in some high adrenalin situations time doesn't seem to slow down, it actually does slow down.

    To prove his hypothesis the scientist got a volunteer. He had him watch a screen flash a number until the number wasn't on the screen long enough for the volunteer to see it. To simulate the high adrenalin emergency situation they hauled him 120 feet off the ground and dropped him into a net. The volunteer read the number on the way down which he couldn't see under normal conditions.

    I don't know if the scientist proved what he thinks he proved, but he proved one thing for sure. Some of these scientists are NUTS. [:D]

    Subject: The gift of time- Something we never get back!




    The last wishes of Alexander the Great........
    On his death bed, Alexander summoned his army generals and told them his three ultimate wishes:


    1. The best doctors should carry his coffin ..


    2. The wealth he has accumulated (money, gold, precious stones) should be scattered along the procession to the cemetery ....

    3. His hands should be let loose, so they hang outside the coffin for all to see!!

    One of his generals who was surprised by these unusual requests asked Alexander to explain.


    Here is what Alexander the Great had to say:

    1. I want the best doctors to carry my coffin to demonstrate that in the face of death,
    even the best doctors in the world have no power to heal ."


    2. "I want the road to be covered with my treasure so that everybody sees that material wealth acquired on earth, will stay on earth.."


    3. I want my hands to swing in the wind, so that people understand that we come to this world empty handed and we leave this world
    empty handed after the most precious treasure of all is exhausted, and that is: TIME.

    We do not take to our grave any material wealth.
    TIME is our most precious treasure because it is LIMITED.
    We can produce more wealth, but we cannot produce more time.

    When we give someone our time, we actually give a portion of our life that we will never take back . Our time is our life !


    The best present that you can give to your family and friends is your TIME.

    May God grant YOU plenty of TIME, to share with all. We never know when he will call us home, then it's to late, think about it!

    +1, mine probably took about 2 seconds, but it seemed like forever.

    I've had a few slow motion moments too. My theory is the adrenalin has your brain running so fast, everything else seems slower.

    I think you freak out and your brain goes into like the turbo rangers mode and like says "Wow,Dude, this is like, totally trip-pin."

    Just a theory...

    Einstein was correct. Velocity slows time down. An atomic clock was taken on a fast trip around the world on a jet aircraft. When it landed and was compared to others, it had lost a couple milliseconds.
    In the human experiment, time doesn't slow, the normal brain power that most humans possess fires into play. Imagine being bombarded with that much data imput 24/7? Our brains "dumb down" to keep thing manageable for us.
    That's why smart people can sometimes be so dumb.[;)]

    If you can take off in a rocket with a window at the speed of light, you can glance down and see yourself still sitting on the launch pad?

    Adrenaline improves your senses doubly. That's why he could see it.

    This is why I cook meth and inhale aerosol propellants. I am actually watching myself type this twenty minutes from now.

    I think it's the aw s*it factor that allows time to stop, or appear to be slow motion, but when this factor is absent, adrenalin shuts out all memory.

    I have always enjoyed wearing women's clothes and watching younger men undress me with their eyes. Even after many wars and close calls, my buttocks still look like two boxing gloves touching.

    When I was into fisticuff
    (bar-street & etc.) time seemed
    to slow to about 1/2 time as I could
    see a punch coming with enough time
    to get my nose right in front of
    the punch every time.
    [:I][8][:(!] OUCH !

    No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven.

    Therefore keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord will come. But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what time of night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into. So you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him.

    I must go on boasting. Although there is nothing to be gained, I will go on to visions and revelations from the Lord. I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago was caught up to the third heaven. Whether it was in the body or out of the body I do not know-God knows. And I know that this man-whether in the body or apart from the body I do not know, but God knows- was caught up to paradise. He heard inexpressible things, things that man is not permitted to tell. I will boast about a man like that, but I will not boast about myself, except about my weaknesses. Even if I should choose to boast, I would not be a fool, because I would be speaking the truth. But I refrain, so no one will think more of me than is warranted by what I do or say.

    Now I am ready to visit you for the third time, and I will not be a burden to you, because what I want is not your possessions but you. After all, children should not have to save up for their parents, but parents for their children. So I will very gladly spend for you everything I have and expend myself as well.[}:)]

    it's all about perception a perfect example could be race car drivers, professional fighters, while time may "appear" to slow down it also can speed up, their perception of time is different when doing these task, this became very apparent to myself when i was reaching master class shooting, while to everyone else i appeared to be smoking a stage, to me i was moving in slow motion, and had all the time in the world, but the timer does not lie, and at this point i reflected on when i received my black belt in TKD how things in the ring where slow motion to me

    "time stands still for no one"
