Nothing Left

        Recently, rediscovering a long-forgotten item from my childhood days at Granny Ewen's house, that brough smiles to my face. Remembering this, gastric juices producing, mouthwatering phenomena, just had to show a scan of this memory and, the memory of all the cookies along the way.


       Would bet that most folks from my own Jones surname ancestors had similar cookie jar memory's. However, at some point along the many hallways of time, we had to purchase our own cookies! What we chewed and, how much we chewed [that mastication process] was of our own choosing. A variety of options produced out of a whole bunch of different kitchens.

       Now the kitchens were of all sorts and kinds, often bring that mastication process for many from the stomachs to the minds. Say what! From the gastric juices to the thought juices. Well for me, my thought juices did take a more active role and, by my high school physics cookies' days (1968), the concept of "matter" did seem to matter a bit more then chocolate chips. 

       It was only a few years later that my college physics days (1971) announced "We are now introducing a new and very important type of process in which a 'fundamental' particle changes into other fundamental particles. This is often called a fundamental process" [p. 648 Physics Book, by K.R. Atkins]. Can't get much clearer than that in mental mastication.

       Well have we finally done it. All those particles and antiparticles. Now we are down to that photon and antiphoton throwing darts at one another. Matter and antimatter spinning away as the last cookie in our cookies jar? By now, old BIG -A- would be turning over in his grave!

        VOID ... in the cookies jar?
