Technically Alive

 Quick break from pilots and the FAA...

It's been 24-hrs since the election and, well, I have had several friends independently call me...each  discussing cryonics.  They would like to freeze themselves for 4 years, and then wake up.  Some sort of collective fantasy.

When I went to Afghanistan, I remember Obamacare was being debated, endlessly, in the House.  When I returned some 4-months later, it was as if time had stopped.  Everyone was still debating the exact same issue, same exact arguments, same exact tone.  I believed the rest of the world had been cryogenically frozen while I was in the desert.
