Today is Albert Einstein’s birthday, that much-loved absent-minded genius
who gave us the theory of relativity (two of them, in fact, special theory and
general theory of relativity), but did you know that Einstein was born with
such a large head that his mother thought he was deformed? Or that Einstein had
a secret child before he was married? Or
that he liked to play with puppets? Or that his brain was removed on death and
taken on a cross-country trip to California
in a Buick Skylark with Einstein's brain sloshing inside a jar in the boot to
meet Einstein's granddaughter? Or that he married his cousin Elsa Lowenthal, but
only after being turned down by her daughter? Or that he wasn’t poking his tongue
out at all in that well known picture, he was licking some barbecue sauce from
his chin?
Hmmmm… happy birthday Albert are you sure that E = mc2 ,or could that have been some spilt barbecue sauce as well?

I can't tell you my telephone number, I have to look it up. Einstein was apparently the same, claiming he didn't have room in his brain for stuff that could be easily found written elsewhere. We are not related.

DeleteI like puppets, maybe I'm related.
I didn't know any of that, but I did know that Pisces rule.
