I Can't Believe It . . .

I Can't Believe It . . . I Don't Want
to Believe It . . .  No Way !

I tie the lace shoestrings on my two, shiny-black
New Balance shoes every day. And then untie
them again at night. So far, that's nothing out-of-
the-ordinary.

Then, quite curious - I started to do the math.

Starting with the question:
          How many seconds (minutes, hours, days,
          weeks) does that procedure mount up to 
          over the course of an entire year?

So here goes !

    1. In one day, the simple action of tying up
        two shoes consumes 20 seconds.
    2. That means that in one full year (7,300
        seconds in a day)  X's  (365 days in a
        normal year)  it would total to
        122 hours a year.
    3. That calculates to 1,708 more hours of
         tying shoes . . .
                  should I live to 90 !

       So glad I'm not a millipede.

        (Just perhaps, I should wear slip now?)
