Last Thought from History and Philosophy of Science Class:

As an ship increases in speed going towards the speed of light, the ship ( and the people on that object ) would experience slower time and have shorter length than another person not on the ship.

Then I started fiddling with the idea that universal expansion isn't that a there's a force in the universe that was pushing the galaxies apart and that force was accelerating, but it was the fact that the universe as a whole was slowing down, and becoming longer.

The reason that the expansion can be observed is while the universe is all going at the same speed, it takes so long to see that far out that we can observe the difference in speed from billions of years ago and today.

I have nothing to test, so it's not really science, but it's something to think of. Though I think it could be tested - though it would require moving someone at the speed of light to figure out what can be seen!

And my morphology professor is the best. Not only did he teach a fun subject, and make it interesting, but he told me where I can buy Aerobars in Bloomington!

So, I went hunting for my Aerobars. Which ment finding Marsh, which I thought I knew where it was, but apparently not as it took an hour to find the place.

But I found Marsh. And the Aerobars! And Hob-Nobs, wine gums, Natucket Nectars, sushi, nutella, and potato pancake mix.

My eyes may have misted over at the sight of the British food section. This might have done more of the random song on my iPod had turned to John Barrowman's "Amazing Grace/Loch Lomand" than anything else.

But I have Aerobars and hob-nobs and wine gums. I would have gotten the jelly babies, but I was recced the wine gums first.
