Not Wasting Time: Bertram Russell is 137 today

Today, May 18, is the birthday of Bertram Russell, who was born in 1872. That's him at 35. He lived to be 98.

“The time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time,” he said, and who could ask more from a philosopher than that?

Thanks to Garrison Keillor for reminding us of Bert's birthday on The Writer’s Almanac.

And it's also Sarah's birthday, so hope the card arrives in time.
