As I sat munching my Egg McMuffin sans Canadian bacon, I saw a staff member removing the display containing the Museum toys and installing a display of Ice Age movie items. {Sigh!}
A few minutes later our clerk, Virginia, came to our table and presented me with my long sought-after Einstein figure, taken from the display that had been removed! Thank you so very much!
Breakfast, Quest, and cultural experiment complete, we left the eatery smiling.
To top it all off, a copy of The Plain Dealer newspaper was found at our table and She Who Must Be Obeyed made sure to give me the comic section. What should be on the first page of the comics but a single-panel Bill Whitehead "Free Range" cartoon featuring a caricature of the famous genius. Whoa! Pictured at a cocktail party, we see, under his "Hi, I'm A. Einstein" name tag, an imprint on his tee shirt reading "I'm With Stupids."
So cool. I'm glad you were finally able to procure an Einstein! The cartoon was great as well. Where will your Einstein reside?
Such an interesting combination of timing, a helpful person, and coincidence! Albert will probably stay at home –since he's a unique item– but right now he's inside the part of our wall clock where the pendulum swings. Kind of appropriate… a physicist would know that, standing still in the correct place, the pendulum will come close but not hit one in the head. — JG
LOL the cartoon! I'm glad you finally got your Einstein. Your morning was full of synchronicity.
Yes, that's the word! I'd like some synchronicity and an Egg McMuffin –NO CAN BAC– please! — JG
