Too Much Time on One's Hands

It has been argued by no less a person than Neil Forsyth that bloggers have alot & even perhaps too much time on their hands. This is nonsensical, I thought. I've never seen Time nor has anyone else, and even if one could, one would hardly expect to see this strange pseudo dimension nestling atop one's hands. However, then I realised that Time if it exists anywhere exists within the object of a timepiece such as a clock or watch. And where does a watch reside except on one's hand or hands. And Time being a creation of the mind that separates existence into this and that, is an artificial construct & so it could be said that having this perpetual reminder of the existence of an artificial dimension wrapped around one's person is indeed to have too much time on one's hands.
