What is seriously confusing is where one has different ages for different things. Example is that here in the UK one can get married and vote when one is 16, but if one wants to drink or smoke one has to wait until one is 18, and if one wants to use glue, some areas of the country one has to be 21,... |

Probably has something to do with the rising/setting Sun. If you're going to travel for all of the daylight hours.. if you travel from East to West you can travel much longer in a day as it stays lighter for longer.

When I first heard the reports it was just a "person" doused the place with gasoline."

I'm a fan of the Golden Rule which is the principle of treating others as one would want to be treated by them. I almost said that. Apparently the Golden Rule is being changed because some people are masochists or narcissists and want to be treated in ways that aren't healthy. Go figure. The spirit... |
