Quote: So I stopped by the public library and spent 20 bucks for a-buck-a-box-of-books. Read a interesting science fictional book called Natures End written in a vaguely disconcertingly accurate way of orwell and H.G Wells. Includes indigos, pysch, worldly conciousness, and environmentalism...got me thinking about you guys
I've been reading "The World is Flat" by Friedman. It made me "remember" that a group like this couldn't have existed 20 years ago. We are experimenting with a new type of group-consciousness here. One of my real life friends "accused" me of being rather unsocial lately. My immediate reaction was "That's not true at all, I'm chatting with people all the time." but then I was like "Oh yeah, not "real" people.". As a lifelong bibilophile I also ask myself questions like "In what sense does the way in which I relate to people on this BB differ from the way in which I relate to Jane Austen or some living author who has a blog to which I could respond? How is that different from how I relate to "real" people?".
Quote: Your post to Rigley about the saving anger and aggresssion for the other gorillas very nearly gave away the bank about winning your woman back.
Yeah, the stuff I was reading about the origin of the marriage contract was making me wonder what purpose the emotion of sexual jealousy could possibly serve for a woman. Maybe it's just like nipples on a man.
Quote: Oh yeah thanks for that compliment back when too. I recommend if your D is as tall buxum and 9/10ths as smart as you, that you keep her far away from me. Id happily devour your sweet little peacemaker just like I did x.
LOL. Actually, my D doesn't look anything like me except for the fact that she is quite tall (over 5'10"). She is very sweet but also very emotionally self-reliant. When she was a baby I would put her in the crib and she would sing herself to sleep. However, many mornings I have to go into the bathroom and kill the spiders before she can take a shower and I'm not always going to be around to do this for her and that is where I see a role for someone like you.
