If it takes forty minutes to bake a cake, how long is forty minutes?

22,062,316,248,000 vibrations of a certain transition of a Cs-133 atom
in free fall.



There is no separation in time between the egg and the chicken. The
only separation is the events we push between them!

Is this a riddle or an observation? In any event, the breakage of
the egg shell is a good separator.



If the future is always in front, why is it always the last to arrive?

Because we approach it from the wrong direction. :-)

If forty minutes is 22,062,316,248,000 vibrations of a certain

22,062,316,248,000 vibrations of a certain transition of a Cs-133 atom
in free fall?

If the breakage of the egg-shell is associated with the egg, then why
is there a separation in time between the egg breaking and the chicken?
