Thought of the day

Deep thought of the day. "its not rocket science!"

You hear that a lot. Some one even accidently said that when they were actually discussing rocket science. That how common and blasé the statement has become.

It used to mean, "come on you idiot, its not that difficult, there are harder things you could be doing". I guess it still does, but is rocket science the hardest thing you could now be doing? Im not sure.

Take for instance, writing a blog post and saving it for automatic future posting. This could be pretty difficult, ill let you know in a few qwwks how I go.

What about getting out of bed early on a winters morning. Bare feet on a cold wooden floor, shaving in front of a steamed up mirror in a drafty bathroom.

As for rocket science, its looking easier by the day.
