Dark Side of the Horse by Samson for April 29, 2021

I forget what comedian joked about speed-reading War and Peace. “It’s about Russia.”

I can’t tell if Horace will catch up with it some day, or if it will come back to him…

Should have held onto to it tighter.

and it set my pants on fire.

I was speed reading once and was seriously injured when I hit a bookmark.

“Paperback to the Future” written by Isaac Asimov

Must have been written by Doc Brown! ;D

Sounds like the Steven Wright joke, “I put instant coffee in a microwave and went back in time…”

how ironic.

Not sure but i think I own the horse that wrote the book.

As I get older, I’ve noticed that reading is among the many things that I do more slowly. My books don’t disappear while I’m reading them. But sometimes I can’t recall where I put them.

Ode to "Back to the Future ". Cool!

It went back to the future

So this is why I can’t find books I’ve been reading! 88 pages an hour is under 500 wpm, which is my typical reading speed for fiction.

1.21 jiggowatts!

just fan the pages of the book to cool off while watching the movie version….!

Reminds me of a parody of “Jonathan Livingston Seagull” “Ludwig Von Wolfgang Vulture” who was speed reading at the mach neural limit when he hit a semicolon and knocked himself unconscious.

I was speed reading before the fad, promoted by President Kennedy, came along . Took a speed reading class in college but was already doing all the suggested steps automatically at 1200 wpm with 80% comprehension. I think it helped that I wasn’t introduced to phonetics until the fifth grade. Books are my most expensive hobby; it’s a mixed blessing.

It’s why I hate instructional videos. I watch video at the same speed as everyone else. :)

Doc Brown’s Rules of Time Travel.

Maybe Webster Dictionary travels are better than TIME and PEOPLE travels to avoid speeding.
