Is there a universe where Proto-Indo-European is called Proto-Indo-European (PIE)? This is one of my worst jokes. Either they don’t get it or they think it’s stupid. To be fair, it is stupid. The second stupidest joke in my repertoire is to say something along the lines of, “Nothing like the luck of the Ivory Coast!” Equally stupid, but at least it pays homage to my passion for vexillology. 

I wrote a lot yesterday. I don’t have too much to say today. I’m a little tired. I’m ready for a nap. It’s nearly 8 p.m. Some may argue I’m ready for bed. I would argue against them. Maybe they’re right, but I still hold strong that it’s always the right time for a short snooze. One can lay down for a little slumber at 9 p.m. and still have an oyster of a world upon awakening. 

I guess I should at least explain the PIE joke a little. In some recent posts, I’ve been reflecting on the possibility of multiple dimensions, different realities, etc. One theory that’s along the same lines as those ideas is the concept that there are an infinite number of universes. If there are infinite universes, every possibility that could exist, exists, an infinite number of times. If this is the case, then there’s some out there where PIE exists the way we’ve attempted to reconstruct it, and it is named PIE. Incredible. I don’t think anyone else thinks so. That’s okay. 

I keep thinking about all these different worlds and realities. Maybe mine would be better if I focused on it more. Maybe it would be worse though, you just never know! I guess I’m at least doing something by writing these posts. I will figure things out sooner or later. If not, I’ll at least know better than I do now.
