I've Been Around the Sun 24 Times

"I've Been Around the Sun 24 Times"

For some reason, putting age in this form makes it seem like such a smaller number than saying 24 years old.

Saying, "24 years young" seems to me to be more trying to convince others that one is young through verbal manipulation. It's a good smile.

Anyways, just extending on more ways to show passage of time..

  • I am just two Jupiter-years young.
  • I'm almost one Saturn-year old.
  • I'm 24 years of age.
  • I'm as old as a 24-year-old tree.

ps - There is no particular reason that I'm talking about age except that my weekly news feed includes a collection of trending Quora posts and I go to thinking.

Learn Morse Code Quicker

This should make learning Morse code a little easier than staring at a plain list.

A quick Morse code refresher:
  • Dit is the same as a dot. Dah is the same as a dash.
  • The duration of a dash is three times that of a dot.
  • Letters are separated by a space duration equal to one dash (or three dots).
  • Words are separated by a space duration equal to seven dots.



For more information about Morse code, including numbers.
