I Need More Time. “If my doctor told me I had only six minutes to live, I wouldn’t brood. I’d type a little faster” (Isaac Asimov). What would you do if you only had six minutes to live? I thought about it a minute. (That only leaves 5). I don’t think typing a little faster would achieve anything. It might be enough time to start a new blog. But I imagine Isaac Asimov could envision one of his short sci fi fantasies and get it all written in about six minutes. As for me, I’d probably just look for a new doctor and ask for extra time.
