I guess sometimes I must be living under a rock... delegated 20 WORKERBEE to @ph1102 because they were pretty much just "sitting there."
This world of ours... it feels like everything is "shortening." The human experience known as anticipation has been almost completely replaced by immediacy. As a kid, I remember sending off money by mail and then you waited for a week; two weeks before what you wanted arrived in the mail. You had to look forward to getting what you wanted... it didn't just come to an Amazon locker near you, a couple of hours later.
Frankly, I think we've lost a part of our humanity, there.
Consider that days are still 24 hours long, and babies still take about 8-9 months to arrive. The natural cycle of existence remains...
To add my own bit of grump: I hate those bored out mnotorcycles as well... and the guys in cars with 500watt stereos you can hear from a mile away. I didn't even like them when I was a teenager, though...
