Question of the Day

Have you ever wondered what,"Once upon a time," meant?  And, how do you get "upon" a "time?"

This question just let's you all know how much my mind has been wondering lately. :)

SFG, question askerer

I, too, wonder great and wondrous things. I also look them up in obscure little websites, whose walls are lined with ancient tomes and cobwebs huddle in the corners. Have a cup of tea with me, will you, as you enter their shadowy doorways?

Well, "once upon a time" when I was younger, I pondered these things too ... But now, not so much!
Have a great day ... COLD here in KY.
