Ran into an interesting situation today. I have a truck that needs to arrive a midnight tonight. 12am. On the confirmation, it is written out as midnight(12am) 6/3. I also have it in military time as 6/3 0000. Both the driver and the dispatcher took that to mean tomorrow night at midnight, which is actually 6/4… I thought maybe I had just come across a couple of weird people, so I took an informal poll. It turns out that everyone I polled had the same initial view.

I guess I’m the weird one. Again.

I chose the Shorter Whitman because of his work, "Song of Myself" and because of my self-deprecating sense of humor. I am under no illusion that I can write successful essays or poetry, but I have been known to write them anyway.
