This was really cute :love:

John Hodgman: A brief digression on matters of lost time

Quote:
You may know him only as the PC in Apple’s PC vs. Mac smackdown ads, or as the Daily Show’s Resident Expert, But John Hodgman has many other claims to fame. Here he rambles through a new story about aliens, physics, time, space and the way all of these somehow contribute to a sweet, perfect memory of falling in love.
