Quantum Mitt

Last edited Sun Jul 15, 2012, 05:23 PM - Edit history (1)

If Mitt wrote his resignation in 1999 but nobody looked in the envelope until 2002 was his status at Bain Capital an un-collapsed probability wave?

Or, a different way of asking the same question, can a dog on the roof of a car meaningfully be said to be alive or dead before the horrified gas station attendant looks inside the cage?

What is the Planck tenure, that term of service as CEO below which the arrow of time can run forward or backward?

Since it is impossible to determine Mitt's position on immigration, does that mean we have determined his momentum on immigration?

Thank you, thank you. I'll be here all of last week.

something like a warm cup of tea.

Of course, you might want to listen to some Vogon poetry before embarking on such a quest.

Kind of like his business ethics, as soon as they are scritunized, they cease to be.

If Mitt and Newt are on their way to the Moon Colony and their spaceship is traveling at 600mph, and they only have enough fuel for 2 more hours, how many hours will it take before we can celebrate?
