"By sending a “living” qubit (i.e., a bit in the state 1) a few billionths of a second back in time to try to “kill” its former self (i.e., flip to the state 0), the scientists show that only photons that don’t kill themselves can make the journey."

and the comments that follow the article. I understand about 10% of it, but that which I understand is pretty funny. Laughing buddha kinda funny!

Snow.

And roaring fireplaces.

And glowing embers.

And sleeping baby cheeks.

Good news.

Having all the paperwork I need, when I need it.

Mmm.

The gift of fear - what a great read!

I love my Electrolux canister vacuum.  The best!

Sea salt, dried by the sun, on my skin.

People who smile when they see me, because they are genuinely happy to see me. I'm only just getting used to it and have realised how odd that is.

Big sturdy short-haired dogs, at least part Lab,
who lean on your leg and wag their tails while
you thump away affectionately on their ribs.

Laughing with tears running down my face when one of my daughters and I are being silly and think we are being witty! Then, think back on how stupid we must have sounded and start laughing all over again!

Going to bed really early once in a while and waking up before most of the world, I can hear the clocks ticking, the birds chirping and see the sun rise or watch it raining.

Seeking tools to make my children s life different from my own childhood. I like that God helps me keep that tool box full and teaches me to use those tools everyday.

Having this board to come to when I am feeling misunderstood or just want to know if everyone here is alright. Even when I just read, it helps me not feel so alone.

I like Jesse, my pool "boy"... he comes & cleans the pool and he's not afraid to talk to me and just be himself. Just a kid, my Ds age, maybe... but he makes me smile.

I like pancakes. Maybe I will make some!!!!

I like little baby vegetable plants. I like to think about the seeds germinating in the dirt while I fall asleep.

I like fences. I like rocks. I like broken pots. I like weed patches, I like the hard work, I like the non-weedy patches also.

Porches outside, with comfy chairs.

How about eating pancakes outside on a porch and watching the sunrise. I don't do that but that would be wonderful.

I like making pickles.

I like being healthy.

I like it when people want to eat the food I cook.

I like me.

I like me even if I don't like all aspects of my life.

I like:

exploring new greenhouses - finding a plant in the exact color I wanted - buying enough to plant a whole border - and then being given 2 more for free - just because the people were nice and we had a nice chat.

Hearing the success stories of others and how success came to them.

This variety of Petunia.

Scroll down to see the hanging basket full.  Spectacular!  This particular color is a little hard to find.

Hops,

Glad you enjoyed.

I bought a flat of these at Walmart a few springs ago.  I planted them with purple verbena around fern centered in pots.  All of it combined was so beautiful.  The Petuna and Verbena trailed all around.  Lasted until the first frost.  Every year after that I looked for more, but never found them (Petunia).
