Now, since some of you girls say 'this and that'...


How far apart is 'this' from 'that'?

Now, I know perfectly well you are not allowed to have a clock
where that is from where this is...
How do you sync a clock that is over there from this here clock????


Einstein would say..."Fuck that clock! I'm only interested in THIS
clock, not THAT clock!!!!"

He knows he cannot syn this clock with that clock because that clock is
too fucking far away.


He is not dat good at math.
