Light travels faster than sound, we know this to be true.

This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak. There are a lot of people that need to keep their mouth shut! That way, people will always be fooled into thinking that they are bright. It works a lot of the time. LOL

Does anybody have a way to get people to keep their unsolicited advice to themelves? My mother in law will likely be getting a copy in her mailbox. LOL.

Nope. The only person you know you can change is yourself. Talking to them will probably yeild negative results.

The best thing to do: Not listen. Try it. It’s fun. I sang a song in my head during a minute long lecture, then got caught air guitaring. Oops.
