hmmmmmm....what didn't happen there kinda depends on what the definition of "is" is.....so to speak.

In front of the tablet, something did happen, but in back of the tablet that same thing did not happen.

I am reminded of a song by the Pixies....an excerpt of the lyrics....

"i've kissed mermaids, rode the el nino
walked the sand with the crustaceans
could find my way to mariana"
