almost back from this disaster, but a layer of ads hanging around

the unpleasant world of ads, mm at least i've seen who does much,
bit weird though getting french adds in an english vid, anyway i didn't even recognize what they wanted to sell, very vague altogether,

Why... is today Beethoven's birthday?
Image
Not is Australia. Well in Perth it is -

10:46 PM AWST (UTC+8)
Perth, Western Australia, Australia • Monday, December 15, 2025
(Beethoven's birthday!)

But in Syndey -
1:46 AM AEDT (UTC+11)
Sydney, New South Wales, Australia • Tuesday, December 16, 2025

Australia is my go to place for time travel. It's because of Formula One, but look at that time difference between today and tomorrow in Australia.

This just in folks!
I suppose this is true for North America too, and South America and all of Europe and Asia, depending on the time of day.
I just love the silliness of looking to everyone east of me for what's going to happen. (edge of my seat stuff)

(only six minutes between when I updated the times in the message.. seven minutes now.. and when I hit submit.

Happy birthday Ludwig.

A timezone race is something to think about. It could would be possible if the timezone line runs between the start and finish lines. It would be cool if it was a race where it starts in one timezone and ends after two hours one hour after the start of the race. Timezones can get weird in North America. YouTube sensation Lost in the Pond had a video about it.

There is a news item about restoration of a Frank Lloyd Wright house. It's a tourist spot. The person that gives the tours said, It's like the owners have gone out for lunch and you get to look around their home while they are away. The visitors love that. I found that a little creepy.

I don't know about you, but who doesn't love rummaging through someone's house when they are not at home? It's still creepy.

"rummage" is great word for it isn't it

I can remember being a child and I used to enjoy a good old rummage when nobody was in the house

I think I found things that I probably shouldn't have

Beethoven ain't as sexy as Foster, that's for sure.

Yeah lol, although people from that era weren't very appealing to look at. Except for Foster - which is why he stands out so much among the rest of them.

I read up on Beethoven, and it seems he kept getting rejected by women.
Mozart did a bit better despite looking like a nerd. These guys were the equivalent of rock stars back then, hard to understand.

Apparently Mozart and Beethoven had autism and/or ADHD, but I'm not so sure. Their neurological ways seem to be more environmental or circumstantial. I read one of them had a difficult upbringing and also was forced to be involved with music from a young age, and the other was deaf, which can have an affect on one's social and emotional development.

So not necessarily autistic, although ADHD describes them a bit better. Autism best describes Foster.

I have been thinking that some things simply take as much time as they do.

I know I know :lol: it is a big enough thought for me.
