twjolson & Kay Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 It has been well established by the scientific community that time is relative. My watch will differ from your watch. The states that cause such time differances have so far been theorized as being from near light speed travel and extreme gravity. However, I have discovered another means that can bend time; Waiting for cache approval!!! It seems that time slows down quite measurably depending on; how excited you are about the cache placement, or how long you've spend working on the cache. These are proportional values, so as they raise, so does the time distortion. I am still discovering the exact equations that govern this new law of time, but I have had some success with: T = EW Furthermore, I have found that time will slow on a curve, with the first few hours going faster then a couple hours on the third day. This is not in the equation yet, but according to an unpublished equation, half way through the 5th day, all time will stop. Quote Link to comment

+sept1c_tank Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 (edited) As I was walking down the street one day A man came up to me and asked me what the time was that was on my watch, yeah And I said Does anybody really know what time it is I don't Does anybody really care care If so I can't imagine why about time We've all got time enough to cry Oh no, no And I was walking down the street one day A pretty lady looked at me and said her diamond watch had stopped cold, yeah And I said Does anybody really know what time it is I don't Does anybody really care care If so I can't imagine why about time We've all got time enough to cry Oh no, no And I was walking down the street one day Being pushed and shoved by people trying to beat the clock, oh no, I just don't know, I just don't know And I said, yes I said Background Vocal: People runnin' everywhere Don't know the way to go Don't know where I am Can't see past the next step Don't have to think past the last mile Have no time to look around Just run around, run around and think why Does anybody really know what time it is I don't Does anybody really care care If so I can't imagine why about time We've all got time enough to die Oh no, no ~~Chicago~~ Edited August 9, 2005 by sept1c_tank Quote Link to comment
+Corp Of Discovery Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day You fritter and waste the hours in an off hand way Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town Waiting for someone or something to show you the way Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today And then one day you find ten years have got behind you No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun And you run and you run to catch up with the sun, but it’s sinking And racing around to come up behind you again The sun is the same in the relative way, but you’re older Shorter of breath and one day closer to death Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way The time is gone, the song is over, thought I’d something more to say Time, Pink Floyd.

+LaPaglia Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 (edited) With all the other songs, this sums it up Yeah, here I am sitting on this bar stool, talking like a dam fool Got the twelve o'clock news blues And I've given up hope for the afternoon soaps And a bottle of cold brew Is it any wonder I'm not crazy Is it any wonder I'm sane at all Well I'm so tired of losing I've got nothing to do and all day to do it Well I'd go out cruising, but I've no place to go and all night to get there Is it any wonder I'm not a criminal Is it any wonder I'm not in jail Is it any wonder I've got too much time on my hands It's ticking away with my sanity I've got too much time on my hands It's hard to believe such a calamity I've got too much time on my hands and it's ticking away, ticking away from me (Too much time on my hands) It's tick tick tick tick ticking away (Too much time on my hands) And I don't know what to do with myself (Too much time on my hands) Now I'm a jet fuel genius I can solve the world's problems without even trying I've got dozens of friends, and the fun never ends That is as long as I'm buying Is it any wonder I'm not the President Is it any wonder I'm null and void Is it any wonder I've got too much time on my hands It's ticking away with my sanity I've got too much time on my hands It's hard to believe such a calamity I've got too much time on my hands and it's ticking away, ticking away from me (Too much time on my hands) Ticky tick tick tick tick ticking away (Too much time on my hands) And I don't know what to do with myself (Too much time on my hands) Umm mmm... (Too much time on my hands) Tick tick tick ticking away (Too much time on my hands) Umm mmm... (Too much time on my hands) Too much time on my hands Too much time on my.......

+joe gremlin Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 I've had the opposite experience in which time speeds up. I've not yet discovered the true reason behind the phenomenon but I know that I travel with a friend to a local establishment that serves adult beverages. I can stop in for 20 minutes and indeed to me 20 minutes passes but upon exiting said establishment I find that several hours have passed. Quote Link to comment
