Default Time's flying.

Crazy how fast it seems to slip by, as I get older. Trying hard not to waste what's left. How do you olde bastages maximize your time?

Less is more. Get rid of people and things that steal your time. I do a lot less than I used to and am good with that. I get to do what I want to do, not get suffocated by things and obligations that aren't doing me any good at this point. I'm almost 63, and the years from 50 to now seem to have gone by in a blur. Life is like a roll of toilet paper: the closer you get to the end, the faster it goes.

That's an absolute truth in life, but most people learn the lesson far too late.

I think you have to live it to really understand it.

Another great 'Time.' APP is really criminally underrated, I think. And no coincidence that AP produced Dark Side. I went with a friend of mine yeas ago to see an all day, multi-artist concert, among them, APP. I told my friend, that's who will be the standout. My friend thought I was crazy, but when we were walking out, he admitted that APP blew him away and that I was right, they stole the show.

Yea, I've always liked APP but to me, this was a blatant ripoff of PF's sound and style of writing...

Edit: Did you know Alan Parsons engineered DSOTM?

Time. Time is a journey, a never ending journey. You travel down a road
and you think you are coming to a end and another road appears and you start
down another road. Its not over ,it is just beginning. I always felr this way about life/and time. There is dying but no death.

Stay busy.
I don't watch much TV.
