The preacher was putting a new coat of paint on his small country church. He was trying to be frugal and only use one gallon of paint. A few hours go by; He managed to get about a third of the way done when he looked at his limited supply of paint and decided he wasn't going to be able to paint...

Been in my head a lot lately. My son likes when I hold him and sing it to him and do our hand motions to the lyrics. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3pHQuCezmLE

This seems like my sort of discussion!

Take it to a swingers club. I've always had a good time there. There is no risk of getting into trouble in such an establishment. PLUS, it should probably be a bucket list item anyway. Message me if you need help finding one. There is a surprisingly high number of them out there. Hell I could...

I've been trying to do some catch up reading on the classics. Since I've begun, I've noticed that many great books were banned for at least a short period at some point in time. I'm currently reading Lolita. It's taken me much longer than it should have to reach part 2, but I've had a lot going...

Thanks for the reply Tyler.D! I'm hoping to do exactly the same thing with my son. I'm actually in the process of writing a book for him which contains a lot of real practical advice; not soundbites or platitudes like so many people offer. I've already been criticized for some of the content...

Nietzsche said "Love is the spiritualization of sensuality." Robert Sapolsky would say it's Oxytocin. I say love is two or more people being deluded in one another's favor.

Oh the 90's hair. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JFSLFBAJdBI

I was wondering that for myself. Scratches head, "I could have sworn there was a like button here somewhere before." lol

This is what happens when people get a little bit of information and can't be bothered to look up the rest; Guessing and making shit up is a much simpler, and in some cases more aesthetic, solution to the information gap. I wonder if some people even realize that they are just assuming that...

As an "adult", I'm finding out many things about people, society, myself, etc. that I wish someone would have told me about years ago. Surely they had to know. Maybe they just didn't think about it. I thought it would be interesting to start a thread for information or advice that we wish...

You only live once. Might as well live lasciviously.

By not acquiring it in the first place. Yeah?

I saw the previews for that but never got to watch it, lol. Thanks for posting. She's so adorable screaming like that in that dress and stockings, lol. I wanted to post the following because I've been suspecting the following for a while. Johnny Cash is nothing more than John Wayne's alter...

You need a cruising cooler. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aw7Qf9IUPaQ

OH! ok. I see where you are coming from. Your idea of determinism is that everything is already written; more of a predeterminism... I get your book analogy now. My idea is different in that the future is not determined, but it seems as if it could be as you trace the chain from past to present.

I see what you are saying, but I'm not convinced that the future already exists. I think that is where our disconnect is, mostly. In a way, the only thing that actually exists is the here and now. I'm also not toying with the idea of technology being a part of the equation. Self awareness would...

Don't let people take advantage either, a lot of people see taste testing as simply a free food (or whatever) offer with no social contract implied.

Sure, well we can agree that the idea is impractical, but it doesn't readily appear to me to be impossible. I'm trying to list some of the changes and "advancements" that would have to occur to allow the transcendence to occur. The first and foremost, in my eyes, being a complete self...
