The Sun came up in the East

Kadizzle and The Commander would disagree on any given subject.  A classic example occurred today.  Kadizzle saw the sun come up the other day and was amazed at the speed the globe of fire popped up over the horizon.  Laying in bed this morning, Kadizzle looked forward to the sunrise out the window.  Kadizzle said to The Commander, look out that window and watch how fast the sun comes up.  Her excellency declared Kadizzle an idiot, and said the sun does not come up in the west. 

The argument ensued.  Kadizzle remembered so well the former sun rise.  Sadly, it turns out Kadizzle had been sitting elsewhere when he first observed the fast rise of the sun.  After the silly argument, and almost a big bet, the Crew got up and got in the morning position.  As Kadizzle looked out the window from his chair, it became obvious how he misconceived where the sun was coming up.

When you live in a vehicle that is moved periodically, your mind becomes confused about direction. You wake up, and have to think about your relationship to the universe.  Your windows do not have the same scene everyday.  This is a good thing.
