Now, I'll explain einstein's 'one-clock' theory of relativity
where one clock runs slow and fast at the same time...


Einstein is sitting
on a hot stove...
at the same moment
A girl is also siting
on Einstein's lap.

So, time (his clock, his frame of reference) is going slow and fast for
him at the same time. Relativity speaking.
