I'm glad we can come to agreement on many things.

However, it does matter to people. It's not what you are saying, but how you say it. You can say some pretty depressing things but phase it in a way that it's a tolerable pill for people to swallow. It's one of the hardest lessons I've had to learn during my life is…

Well you can view the world as simply that, however I find life not to be easily black/white as it is more of shades of grey. Though I do understand your point of view since your very logic driven as I am. Though frankly, your initial thoughts of science explaining why would be pretty depressing to most…

Your right, apparently it is happening in Maine, but from my quick 40,000 ft view of a google search, it's unclear how bad of a problem it is. Though in reflection, the beetles may affect the paper industry alot more into making their models unsustainable if their trees get infected.

I was glad I was born a decade before so I could remember the ice storm of 98. Nothing much will compare to that. Anything that doesn't even match up halfway to that is basically a "pffff that's nothing." Of course during that snow storm, I had to shovel with my brother and sister the entire walkway and driveway, as…

St. Louis is the city it references in the chart.

My state looks like it died in an freak invasion somehow. Though somehow, I don't think Maine is getting deforested that badly. The paper industry here tends to be smart about making sure everything is sustainable.

Sorry, that was a typo on my part, I meant to say Harem. However, I do like inner city stuff anime alot. Though it's very rare for me to like anything that deals with high schools or that level. More often that not, most of the animes I watch, either they were in high school for about one episode, and by the end,…

That's not entirely weird or uncommon at all. I am definitely much the same way, however I make sure that I only buy things as a pick me up that are more than $100 or more only maybe three times a year if I have to. It also helps alot if you have a small hobby where buying a small part or additional piece doesn't cost…

I always found it odd that people think it's weird to talk to yourself (though due note, I only due this when I'm absolutely alone). I always found it as an excellent way to prep myself for situations or circumstances that I will or may encounter in the future. I also found when analyzing how your saying things, you…

no the difference between why and how is not interchangeable. Why is meaning of life stuff. Why do we exist on this ball of dust tumbling thru the cosmos? That type of stuff. Science is basically saying how we arrived here, but does not provide anything in the way of "meaning of life". Science does not say…

Isn't that what science does when new evidence is proposed? Nor do I see that type of action as bad as far as religion is concerned. Frankly, they can say someone caused it or whatever, most likely, I highly doubt we will ever answer the question of "why we are here." "How" on the other hand, is a question we can…

it happens. I mean you can easily tell he's at least a head higher than everyone else. Heck, the second picture with Picard, you can tell that he's near the height where he would have to be careful that he doesn't hit his head on the top of the door. I'm sure the first few times on set, they had to change all the…

Hell they get guns wrong all the time as well. Was that 5 shots? nah let's make it 15 shots? wait it was revolver? well... they won't notice. AK-47? Well, let's make it shoot 120 rounds before he has to reload. Sometimes I wonder if hollywood has a giant spinning wheel of "who are we going to troll next"

I think diologue is suppose to be involved in the one-upping as well.

Is he just naturally that tall or is that on purpose and they went with it?

She's about as dead as they want to be. I'm pretty sure everyone knows she's going to be back in the next halo or the one after that. No way they would allow her to actually die off and stay dead.

This phone isn't a cudgel, you barbarian! It's something else...something much more important...The Tech-Bloggers were right! This phone, it's fragile.

No they are not. I still prefer an hard copy book on many subjects than anything else. There are things which I don't mind as a E-book, but more often that not - if it's important, I want a hard copy of it.

I apologize, I didn't make that connection.
