MAGNETO HYDRO DYNAMICS (MHD) -- A means of producing electricity directly by moving liquids or gases through a magnetic field. Is this like relationships go?

Glob/Chrom I had a difficult time ignoring one of your posts that had a MHD reference. I found some pages but they had so many numbers to the power of, in the material, I had to pass on those for now. The information about the coal was easy to understand.

I used to subscribe to Scientific American magazine but found it to be a bit challenging and had to re-reads and had to use the dictionary / internet to find the meaning of words and their applications.

I read a little about coal and MHD but wondered if MHD is something that happens in space or is used for space travel or observation. Any basic web sites you can direct me to?


About Love, that is a tough one too.

BB says she loves me but is not happy with a lot of things I do or don't do. Does she want me to be an actor and do things as the way she thinks they should be done? No answers needed. She is pickey, pickey, pickey!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! sometimes.

Last couple of weeks I repaired the deck and made new stairs. The old stairs were going bad and each tread was a little too far apart for the little dogs. I added a step and decreased the height of each step by almost an inch. The little dogs have an easier time going up and down the back stairs now.

This week I am installing new flooring in what used to be our room. BB has the bedroom across the hall.

I wanted for us to get back to the old bedroom but BB was dragging her feet so I said I was moving her furniture back to our room when I was finished with the floor and walls. Some resistance from BB as expected, what is new?

BB ordered her new dresser and nightstand and I said I was going to not help her negotiate price or help her buy or bring home any more things.

Just prior to this conversation, BB was talking about a relative XX, that spends a lot of money and said XX does it we should too. XX just bought an almost new Lincoln that impressed BB. XX had a really nice 90 something Buick that would have run for another 100,000 miles.

This is when I said if BB wants to follow in XX's footsteps, I would set up two separate accounts and she could do anything with hers, I would even put 60% of the assets in her account because some of our money was hers and asked BB if she considered her mothers money hers alone. No answers were returned. This part of the conversation was posed by me as a "what if" / "what do you think" situation.

Also, yesterday I had my arm around BB and was feeling like ML but BB said it was too late. I withdrew my arm and told BB I was not rejecting her, that it was just emotionally difficult to have the hots/erection/a woody if you guys are Beavis and Butthead fans, and not have much happen so many times. I got the she is too old reply and i need a 35/40 year old woman. I understand her lack of interest but after a while my sexual frustration turns to resentment and then to something like depression or at least a "why try" attitude. I think other people here called it a "don't give a Ship."

I am reading "Tell Me No Lies" and see sometimes I have not been blunt, honest enough, or have let some things go to the point of me being ready to do a mild explosively remark. I don't know if being honest sooner helped BB understand my POV but I did say something sooner and avoided some of my suck-it-up, leads to frustration feelings.

Back to MHD and love. What is the commonality? I don't understand all I need to know about either one of the subjects.

MHD, Love, relationships? Here is a related joke.

Highway to Hawaii

A man was walking along the beach and found a bottle. He looked around and didn't see anyone so he opened it. A genie appeared and thanked the man for letting him out. The genie said, "For your kindness I will grant you a wish, but only one - none of that three wishes jazz, OK?"





The man thought for a minute and said, "Well, I have always wanted to go to Hawaii but have never been able to because I'm afraid of flying, and ships make me claustrophobic and ill. So, I wish for a road to be built from here to Hawaii."





The genie was taken aback a bit, but after some thought said, "No, I don't think I can do that; think about the pilings needed to hold up the highway and how deep they would have to be to reach the bottom of the ocean. Think of all the pavement and steal and concrete that would be needed. I'm sorry, you will have to choose another wish."





The man thought for a minute and then told the genie, "There is one other thing that I have always wanted. I would like to be able to understand women. What makes them laugh and cry, why do they get upset at us so easily, what are their true desires and needs? Basically...what makes them tick?!?"





The genie stared at him and blinked a couple times.

"So, do you want two lanes or four?"

I left the MHD to chrom and the internet. Only guys that watch "The history of paint" on TV would want to know the answers to MHD.
