is there a subject or a verb or anything in here for starters
whether express or implied
with pals a little syntax outslaps a load of explanation
or at least no gut or nap of mine has been tugged on yet anyway
great mets fan that i always have been too
& with continents
whatever the dreams or myths
& you see how silly people can be about them
speaking as a beepy roadrunner
i of course cant help recognizing & conceding 2 distinct americas
divided however not by a canal or bridge
but only by the actual darien road gap
however only a single undivided ungapped afroeurasia
& ditto for oz too i think
but there are probably several unconnected antarcticas
oops
if road networks were continents
which of course they arent really either
are they
a sea level panama canal &or sea level suez canal might have changed
my whole mind around on this question
but neither of these is really such a clean cut as all that
& then even if they had been
you would have had to consider most of greece & cape cod separate
continents too
oops
etc etc
all still very messy
which is why i say
not to even worry about it
