/**
 * A Handler allows you to send and process {@link Message} and Runnable
 * objects associated with a thread‘s {@link MessageQueue}.  Each Handler
 * instance is associated with a single thread and that thread‘s message
 * queue.  When you create a new Handler, it is bound to the thread /
 * message queue of the thread that is creating it -- from that point on,
 * it will deliver messages and runnables to that message queue and execute
 * them as they come out of the message queue.
 * 
 * <p>There are two main uses for a Handler: (1) to schedule messages and
 * runnables to be executed as some point in the future; and (2) to enqueue
 * an action to be performed on a different thread than your own.
