First of the Year Turkey Redux

I mentioned in last week’s First Turkey of the Year we should expect more.

And so we do.

Meanwhile, this young lass insists on repeating her Firsthood among the Turkey clan.

It’s good to be First.

Consider how hard elite athletes work to become the First in their chosen sport.

Or businesses.

Or nations.

Petty none of them seem to realize how fleeting Firstness is.

Do you know the First Mountains are still around? The Makhonjwa Mountains in the Barberton Greenstone Belt are 3,500,000,000 years old (or 3.5 BYO, if you prefer). These mountains have been around since the Paleoarchean and are known as “Genesis of life”.

Not a bad gig, if you can get it.

Wonder what they do for an encore…
