"There are two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle.The other is as though everything is a miracle."
– Albert Einstein, physicist and Nobel laureate

I’d have thought Einstein would know better than to place binary classifications on people.

There are 10 types of people in the world: Those who understand binary, and those who don’t…

The thing about public figures like Geo Washington,
Benny Franklin, Abby Lincoln, and Al Ein is that
just like you and me – they are not geniuses or
presidents, or world figures – 24/7.
Meaning they are allowed to be as trivial and
irrelevant, and silly as you and me. That includes
having a sense of humor. These guys have become
cardboard characters by use, school teachers,
and authors who make a living selling stuff on
Amazon and Barnes and Ignoble.
Nobody ever reads these comments anyway, so I
call this Stream-of-Consciousness – self-talk.
Al E was my Mom’s cousin – back in Austria -
The whole family was suspicious of the Professor
and his book learning – they were mostly small
business owners, and my Mom lived on a small
farm -ignorant as dirt.
Who knew the weird kid would be a world figure,
and move to American – the promised land for
European despised Hebrews.
So, goodbye, Al really knew there was more than
two-ways to think about miracles, and #3 was
to exercise a little humor about it.
P.S. My Mom introduced me to him at a family
wedding in NYC. He patted me on the kopf, and
I was a nice kid, guess he really didn’t know
that much. Damn, we never discussed E=mc2.
See ya,
Hal
