Always borrow money from a pessimist. He won't expect it back.

So Day 2 on a mild cold.  Should be over by Monday.  I did a marathon on the bike yesterday so I suspect that weakened it.

Meanwhile on the subject of things to wrap your head ahead around, here's a riddle for you from Captain Airplane!




 Captain’s Bathroom Riddle

A crew is flying a plane.The captain gets up and says to the young co-pilot:

“Alright kid, I’m going to use the toilet. While I’m gone, think about this — will the total weight of the plane go down while I’m in the bathroom?”

The rookie’s sitting there all serious, thinking it through:

“Hmmm… the toilet’s a closed system, so technically the poop stays on board. Therefore, the weight shouldn’t change.”

The captain comes back, and the kid proudly gives his answer.

The captain just shakes his head and goes,

“You idiot! Of course the plane got lighter — it’s been burning fuel while I was gone! You’re over here thinking about crap instead of aviation!”
