Your Most Valuable Possession
(6:49 a.m., Friday, November 20th)
Good morning, Mr. Ben, it's about 6:30, Winston-Salem, North Carolina
Just laying here in the bed, half awake, half asleep, thinking about you
I was wondering if you were looking after your most valuable possession: your mind
I was thinking about John Glenn, his space journey and all
They said that when you're in space, you lose muscle mass and body mass
And I wondered if there was any end to it
Or whether, if you didn't exercise in space, how long it would be
Before you were just a head or a mind and have no body or arms
Or if you'd have them, but you couldn't use them
And I was wondering if your body mass would drop to a certain level
And then it would stop right there, keep whatever you needed to use your mind
'Cause it would still be working, so
30 seconds remaining
Anyway, I was just pondering that, what do you think about, um
I hope everything is going alright
I may wake up here in a little while, forget what I was thinking about
