I really am dyslexic you Jerk.

Besides, mine was intended to sound like gibberish.
Re: a comment on The Forgetting by Dovina	4-Jan-06/3:04 PM
I was offended by your penis comment. I guess that makes me the worst sexual offender by your logic.
Re: a comment on The Forgetting by Dovina	4-Jan-06/3:02 PM
Whoops! Damn dylexia. "Tongue" I mean. What's with the penis talk?
Re: a comment on The Forgetting by Dovina	4-Jan-06/6:30 AM
By the way. I wrote a poem full of dictionaryless words.
Re: a comment on The Forgetting by Dovina	4-Jan-06/6:27 AM
Paste-tounge is the phenomonon when you eat paste and you don't wash it down with a hardy glass of paint water and a film of paste dries on your tounge. Or it's when you're simply speachless. When you're stuck for words.

Be careful not to do that too often though. It can ruin your credibility and then no one will take anything you say seriously. Just ask Dark Angel.

I believe I've only seen it once so I'm not sure(which surprises me 'cause I'm a big Kubrick fan). I think Mason was in it but I'm not sure about Sellers(that might be Dr Strangelove). I was born in the early 70's but my parents watched a lot of old movies on TV while I was growing up. I'd just come off a big debate so I guess I was still a bit punchy with my comments. My apologies.

No, none of them have got the best of me. On the contrary, they're working for me on the street corner in Brooklyn. That's how I know about you. You have to admit "Joe-Joe" "Humbert Humbert" quite a coincidence. Chill man I'm just kiddin'. I actually think this poem's pretty good. You can't be that nasty if you live in Brooklyn. Now The Bronx, well that's a whole different story.

Yeah I meant to change that first sentence but I got side tracked by my 6 yr. old niece. The rest of what you said is pretty much what I was trying to say. I suppose there are some truly wise logicians who are willing to leave room for microanomalies(How you like that for a compound word?) even in the surest of rules but those folks are few and far between. Most of them think they know more than they know.
Re: a comment on Construction Lot (edit) by zodiac	3-Jan-06/9:16 PM
I thought I pretty much agreed with you on that. Yeah I was taking the shotgun approach to answering your question. I don't know why you come across that way sometimes. Maybe 'cause you rarely use flighty language or show off your childish side in your words.
Re: a comment on Schoolyard Walls by Joe-joe	3-Jan-06/2:22 PM
I think she might be implying you're a Humbert Humbert.
Re: The Forgetting by Dovina	3-Jan-06/2:12 PM
What is with you people just making up words whenever it suits you. At least put a footnote to tell us what the heck it means. Actually I think "Eternal paste-tounge now." would have been a lot cuter.
Re: a comment on Construction Lot (edit) by zodiac	3-Jan-06/10:10 AM
As you can see I like rhyme and pentameter. My favorite made-up compound word: Dreamescape.

You mean the irresponsibility that tends to come with faith? My favorite quote from some fat comedian who's name I can't remember: "I don't care if it rains or freezes as long as I got my plastic Jesus." And how like a child you wish you could fly but as an adult you know you can't. Rodin's thinker suffering with unlimited imagination but limited ability or Don Quixote dreaming the imposible dream only time and time again falling on his ass or me as a child, holding a mirror at my waist facing up, and staring down at the mirror at the sky and pretending I'm walking on clouds. If only we could live in our dreams. American Dream Oh show me the land of the free, Where one can roam endlessly, Where topless sky meets bottomless sea and dreams wash ashore on reality. Oh show me that promised land. Oh show me the land of the brave, where nobody fears the grave, where no one is anyone's slave and no soul needs to be saved. Just show me where to stand. One of my oldest poems. I choose to live back and forth between faith and logic. It's a cop out I know but it actually works quite well in giving me peace of mind. I just hope you're happier with life than you sound sometimes. I know nothing except the fact of my ignorance.-Socrates

"ME: Not true. For example: Under conditions such as those existing in a laboratory on Earth at the present moment, objects falling in a vacuum will accelerate toward the Earth's center at a calculable rate irrespective of their mass = true, logical, and proveable." First you have to determine when the object started falling. You can't. You can only give a relatively practical number or word to describe when it started falling. It could be that for the first incalculable moments the object is falling that it actually falls at a different rate than the calculated moments. It probably doesn't fall at a different rate because that would be inconsistant but at a quantum level all sorts of strange things happen. What allows you to make such grandiose assertions as to say you know things at a quantum level that nobody else does. YOU: Logic. ME: + Faith.
Re: Construction Lot (edit) by zodiac	2-Jan-06/6:52 PM
Sunspangled? Maybe you mean sunlight spangled. What about something like this: It is a dizzying day in the city. A March-wind flirting sings in a standpipe in a lot I'm passing by where children used to play. Now the sun flickers behind a fence. And in my heart I yearn to cross that lot, and again on my return, but don’t, knowing in my heart its current kings are cold and stern. I remember when I was younger and wished I could change the world and how the commonness of American complacency drove me crazy. If you wanna beat the system, buy some stock in NC construction Co.s and when you get rich buy yourself a lot for children to play in.

First this:http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=fuzzy%20logic Now I'll cut through all my BS. I'm sure you'll reply bullocks to this but all forms of human conceptual thought involves both elements of faith(assumption) and logic(truth). To assume that we think entirely through logic or believe entirely through faith is delusional, at least in it's practical use in the real world. You can not seperate the two from any human concept as nothing can totally be proven to make it complete logic nor disproved to make it a matter of complete faith.

Your answer: That's my point. Then why believe in him? Your answer: I don't know. 'Cause it makes you feel good. Thank you Zodiac I now believe God must exist. Human logic is limited. Ultimate knowledge is God. Forgive me if I sought both. Goodbye human logic, goodbye.
