POSIWID

 https://www.reddit.com/r/news/comments/1rkwedp/ice_confirms_a_measles_outbreak_in_the_nations/ The Purpose Of A System Is What It Does, which comes up in this delightful discussion. 

I might as well cite Reddit all I want because it's only a matter of time before the very-small-hats buy it out and turn it into another Talmudic mouthpiece. 

Anyway, I'd kind of suspected POSIWID when I concluded that the point of having a car is to intimidate others with injury or death, and that my theory is proven when many other, often better, systems of transport have been come up with, and are still not used in the US. Also that in 100+ years of cars being a thing, communication has always been limited to rude horn honks, shouts, and obscene hand gestures. 

I practiced last night from around 9-11PM and because I wasn't all tired out, it went great. So now I feel a lot better about my playing. 

I also listed 10 things and then realized I was really tired, and went to bed at 4AM which is about 4 hours earlier than I'd been. I woke up around noon with a horrible cough like something tickly had gotten in my throat, and got up and had some room-temperature 7-Up, then went back to sleep ... until 3:30. So much for my plan to get out of here by 2 with post office things, go to Grainger and buy a new hat, then come back and pack this one big order, take it to FedEx, and that'd be my day.

 I got up at 2 this afternoon, early for me lately ... on the radio they were discussing the things that I think went into my waking up one ...
