Thank goodness he removed the watermelon from beneath him. Donât want to have another running joke like he had with his behind falling off which came from him being hit with a laser when he was in the comic strip Outland.
Pretending to have read it and also to have understood it. What if all of these theoretical physicists were just pulling a big scam and itâs all a bunch of bunk?
Itâs only possible to get pickled on peach kombucha if one makes it with an airlock (bubbler) to keep the air out â which makes it peach hooch. Otherwise there isnât any alcohol in kombucha, just acetic acid (vinegar). Tasty stuff, though!
I tried a BriefER History of Time. I just donât have the grey cells up there to really grasp that stuff. But Iâm glad some people do. Mr. Hawking was a great man, and not to proud to be an occasional guest on âFuturama.â
Gotta envy theoretical physicists. They spend their lives publishing papers about theories they believe âcouldâ happen, but never have to prove that what they believe actually exists.
Ho hum. I donât deal in popularizers. Just donât drop that watermelon off the roof, Opus; if you do, and injure anyone, you could find yourself living out a very different fantasyâŠ.
Like a number of other commenters here, I read the book. It was many years ago, so I should probably go back and read it again. In any event, I donât remember it as being especially difficult to follow, though it no doubt helped that I already knew a fair amount of basic astrophysics. Iâve certainly read books that were much harder to read, both non-fiction and fiction (Ulysses, for instanceâŠ).
Well, where Mr. Hawking is now, he doesnât have to sit in a wheelchair, use a synthesized voice, or suffer with the condition he has anymore. He doesnât need any of that.
Read it through a couple times back in â89. Also, âBlack Holes and Baby Universesâ. A little education goes a long way. Maybe then an overgrown kindergartener wouldnât have been elected POTUS.

Is there any coffee to go with that nutcake?

I read it. Godspeed, Professor Hawking.

We should be eternally grateful that he didnât write the expanded and complete version, and that he kept it brief. Wowsers!

Picking a nit here, but shouldnât it be âproffered piffleâ rather than âpreferredâ?
Happy, happy, happy!!! Premium Member almost 7 years ago
I did.

I read it. Also read his BLACK HOLES AND BABY UNIVERSES and Other Essays. I also showed the video of Brief History of Time in class every January 8th.

I actually read it all the way through: what a disappointment! You can tell early on that the butler did it.

I canât say I got a grasp on Dr. Hawkingâs explanation of time.
⊠but then I always thought something was fundamentally wrong with the universe.

Opus to the rescue.

My favorite takeaway from his book was his explanation of light cones. That is how I was finally able to comprehend spacetime geometrically.

Of course I read it. Hawking was my inspiration to study astrophysics. :- )

I finished it but should read it again. I kinda got lost towards the end IIRC.
