Just a sec!

The atomic clock learned us the exact time we live in. (Unless you remember time is a matter or relativity of course...). Now every year we must turn back the clock for one second. Yes, that is one precious little second, a beautiful moment in time of no more, and certainly no less, than one full second. If we do not turn back the clock we will not be living in the right time any longer. 
Who cares... humans are outdated anyway. Highest time for the evolution of a new species. Even if your expected lifetime will be be 90 years, it means 90 x 1 second = 1,30 minutes will be lost in your lifetime. 
I hope you can live with that.

Leap of faith

Haven't got a clue where or what this is leading to.

[Liked the expression. Guess I should use it in a flash or short story once...]

Sneaky

Sure, whenever there's big money involved, I am the last to know. Turns out I've completely missed the sneaker mania. People have been collecting these limited editions for years. Not to wear the darned shoes but to stack them into their house. Boxes are piled up, waiting for new customers. Big business, as some of these collector's items are worth $ 24.500,- a pair. (Hey, look on the bright side. At least it is a pair!)

Question is when this madness will stop. According to dealers there is no end to the popularity of sneakers. (Nobody learned anything from internet bubbles and tulipmania yet?)
Well, those boots may be made for walking; these sneakers are made for investment.
