It's about time !
Time. It seems that there is nothing we can do about it.Seconds, minutes, weeks, months, years, and decades all seem to
elapse and vanish forever right before our eyes.
Oh sure, in movies there are time machines that allow us
to step into some magical portal as a gateway to other times.
But, that is pure fantasy, which is never going to happen.
Damn, there goes my dates with Athena, Helen of Troy and Pocohontas.
Then, there is Einstein's theory of relativity, where time,
mass, and energy are interrelated. This has inspired some
to postulate, that if we could somehow travel faster than the speed of light, that we could travel back in time. Wrong ! It might appear so, if we moved in the direction further away from earth, but time would still march forward. It would just appear that way, as the light catches back up with us and even then, you would need a very powerful telescope to witness this. If you traveled faster than the speed of light to the same place where you began, time would still have elapsed (albeit a very small amount of it).
Time & time again, you cannot cheat time !
Face it, time is our only unreplenishable resource. No matter how rich you may be, you simply cannot buy more of it. OK, you might be able to buy a bunch of timeshares in Hawaii, the Riveria, and Fiji. But, could you spend all your time there ?
Oh hell, why not !
Lets pack our bags & enjoy the trip !
And I am not packing a watch !

You can here some talk about "doing time", and the government have sentenced people to 450 years in jail. The government ain't that stupid.
