We celebrate it in a strange way (Kay, strange? how unusual!). My dad, being the perverse sort that he is, has always made it a joke to ask whether we had noticed how short the days were getting (because yes, they do start the downward turn from here on...). After many years it became a contest to see who could remind the other first. He's been known to call at 6 am on this day to ask me if I'd noticed...

Usually he wins. :)

Today, though, I handed the phone to EJ (Thing the Elder) and told her to say "Grampie? it's EJ. Have you noticed...?"

Bingo! We win!! :woot: :yay

I spoke to him and said "Dad, you have been GOT."


So, in that spirit of complete silliness -- happy solstice! :D

The Three Laws of Robotics:
1. A robot may not injure a human being, or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
2. A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.
