Balls

People often say the law is important. Written rules... rules of the road... the unwritten rules... bylaws... amendments... commandments... things like that. I say, it's the spirit of the law that counts more than the law itself. For example, the Catholic Church requires all members to tithe 10% of their earnings. I think it's not so important that if a person makes $125.00 a week (I know, an egregious sum) he turns over twelve fifty exactly. Maybe he wants to give only ten dollars one week. Or perhaps fifteen dollars the next week.

It is in this vein that I choose to extend my day. See, Project 365 is supposed to be for good, and what good can it be if a day is constrained to twenty-four hours? Further, I was asleep for the first eight of those today. So, now that I haven't gone to bed yet tonight, and it is only three o'clock in the morning, I feel that I could actually wait another five hours to write this post, to give me the full twenty-four hours of my day. Of course, I won't do that.

However, I ask the courtesy of your respect and consideration at this hour of the morning, and I will consider this post the next in my P365 and will not cheat you by changing the date/time stamp of my post. So there.
