Maybe Einstein was wrong

Einstein is famous for saying - doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result is the definition of insanity. So either he was wrong or I am not insane or both. Tonight I wanted to open a screw cap soda. Would not open. Tried several times, did not open. Gave up. Tried it again 1/2 hour later, I opened the danmed thing. So maybe, if you don't succede, try, try again is more correct than Einstein

Is opening a soda bottle metaphorical for something else?

What means of persuasion did it take to get Miss Piggy to pose nude with a snake?

If I'm at home and a bottle won't open, grab a channel lock and use that. You may have loosened the vacuum in your first attempts. Have a jar opener called (or used to be called) a Jar Pop. It is like a large bottle opener. Principle is that it breaks the vacuum on the jar so that it will open easier.

That is, ofc, a takeoff on the Natassha Kinsky photograph that hung in many a dorm room.

I read that he had a previous theory. Colonel relativity, which stated "Every body has relatives" but he never published it. So E=MC squared took preference, and became General relativity
