Really strange,. The yolk was hard and cut like hard cheese. This was boiled earlier. That's never happened ever in boiling eggs? Anyone?
There is a three digit number on the end of an egg carton (from 001-366).
This number corresponds to the number of the day of the calendar year that the eggs were packaged.
Eggs are generally good for six weeks after packaging.
American eggs are washed and it’s probably best if they’re refrigerated.
In Europe (and elsewhere) they’re not washed and retain a coating from the hen that keep eggs “fresh” for about the same amount of time, six weeks.

I feel obligated to answers because i am the Op? But please post if you have an answer.:)

Seven things are hidden from man:

The day of death.

The day of redemption.

The absolute truth in a judgement; also,

No man knows how he will earn a livlihood.

What is in his neighbors heart.

What a woman is feeling.

And when the wicked will fall
(Midrash)

But for an answer, all is in the hands of the One above.

I forgot about the time difference and thought it was pm. So what's your example of parallel? You can really get by with so little sleep?

In the instance of my post I meant not hyper exact but, like, simiar or if you like parable, along the same lines.

I have so many sins that keep me awake at night.

So it is a blessing to be made aware of them and get them wiped off the slate, now

and not later,

Vivid flashbacks, though things have quitened down a lot lately.

Surely it cannot be all bad,:)

Thanks for the info. Still doesn't explain the rubber yolk.

You're very deep for a man. Living with past sins is tough. I don't think it stops til we stop. I hope God gives you. Some peace, makes it easier to handle. I'm not sure i agree with your last words. Grin and bear it as they say. Easy to say but not so easy to do. BLESS YOUR HEART!

A very righteous sage became anxious when nearing the end,

his followers could not understand why.

He told them, "I do not know what to say at the heavenly tribunal if they ask me,

Sasha, why were you not Sasha"?
"I do not know what to say"

So give us a parallel to a hen laying her eggs in another's nest? What would be Jesus' parable? Parables usually throw me. I'm not deep enough. It's 2:35 am here.

Nah, birds of a feather flock together,

Short and deep.

I have gone off of eggs cannot seem to get them right for some reason.
I own an egg cooker that I purchased a few years ago for $20, and it has proven to be invaluable. It consistently prepares my eggs to perfection without fail. Given my frequent meal prepping, it's also been incredibly helpful to have an extra stovetop burner available for other cooking tasks. I would recommend that for you. It's $20 for years upon years of perfect eggs.

Your high intelligence is obvious. Nice! Thanks for your input. What exactly is the flashes,, not the text book answer.

When you press on your eyes or rub them gently, you're putting some pressure on the front part of your eyes. That pressure can stimulate the cells in your retina, which is the back part of your eye that senses light. Even though your eyes are closed, these cells can still send signals to your brain, and your brain interprets those signals as bursts of light or colors. It's a bit like your brain's way of saying, "Hey, I'm getting some unusual signals from the eyes, let's make some cool visual effects!"

Hope this helps!

I didn't get beyond the rubber yolk. I'm fighting stomach acid. Did you get my message to you on the beta screensaver? I put it in the sea. Food thread.

It does, thanks. I usually think in the negative having heard that you see flashes with a stroke sometimes.

Well not to worry! Also, I hope you feel better! Make sure to drink some water and avoid dairy for a bit!

I think it's very possible that we suspect when our time is near.
