Hmmmmmm... It would make more sense to me if it were "by barstools that have Gone-awry-a." They have no clout whatsoever.

"doth", "do'eth", "does"; I chose "doth" just because...er...well... I used to read a lot of Shakespeare's sonnets. Ok, maybe it is a little out of date. Thanks for your inputs. This will be a work in progress as I really liked the way this first stanza turned out. I'll have her call again soon and inspire me toward more. Stay tuned.....

Wuz "you" really right..??..even if you'd never been to Calif? No sand in your shorts? I was enthralled by the West Coast promenade many years ago, but, I had no right to stay. Good vote to you.
Re: The Freemasons by Bachus	17-Jun-04/10:14 PM
Ever read "Sarum" by Edward Rutherfurd? Those [eventual] Masons "Rocked" the free World to come. Satan and Pagan ruled for centuries. Embrace an Icon??? Stonehenge is offlimits now.

Mmmmm.... "Mutton Biceps". You're chasing that with whine I hope.

Darn. That's the third question on the test. You're "nadda-gonna" give Dave the answer, are you?
Re: a comment on Why you don't fall through the floor by ?-Dave_Mysterious-?	10-Dec-03/8:53 AM
Is he paying you to tutor him after class? Dear "Everyone", I already offered you the job. You don't have to give it away so easily just because it is clear that Dave has not slept in a few days now. 45° and 0°?? Oh, now I get it! Oh yes, "Inversion challenged people" can be... er... shall we say: "Could've had a V8, but apparently, are only blessed with a Slant-6."
Re: a comment on Why you don't fall through the floor by ?-Dave_Mysterious-?	10-Dec-03/8:32 AM
Sorry Dave, I have already offered the job to Everyone, but now, I am going to throw in the Medical bennies. "Tri-again" was merely a play on words - not a clue, which is still what you're missing. Nice try on the equalateral triangle but you still lack the third dimension. I won't ask whether you're familiar with the concept of "Six degrees of Freedom" - you're still stuck behind the first two. No Tupperware in the house? You could have made a trip to the store. 45° and 0°...??? What more am I to conclude from you here? Remember this: Gravity is our friend, always has been, always will be. If you drop a golf ball straight into a hole, what is the angle of approach? This is the second question on the test. (Your scholarship is at stake.)

Except for a couple of light redundancies, I liked the message but got tangled in the flow. Maybe I should've had my coffee first.
Re: a comment on Why you don't fall through the floor by ?-Dave_Mysterious-?	9-Dec-03/9:54 AM
Within the nature of spatial understanding, reason, meaning and possibility are all linnear vectors. Covers are two-dimensional. Holes, however, possess Depth, which is something lacking where you live - by your own admission. At first, I was prepared to expound on your reason for a 2-D hole, but then you added an insult - dementional immaturity is not your saviour. It only proves a lack of depth. Idiot, indeed. Tri-again.
Re: a comment on Why you don't fall through the floor by ?-Dave_Mysterious-?	9-Dec-03/8:18 AM
There is help for you yet. Once you find an apron that fits, and isn't too insulting, you'll be allowed to play with the (Tupperware) food storage containers and their lids right on your own kitchen floor. The unbridled ecstasy you will experience, in that single moment when you see the concept, will seem as if the cover were removed and you are able to climb up out of the impureness that is clouding your geo.m PS: Play with the rectangular "holes" first.

Oooooooooh! Shigle-me-timbers! You've won the $64,000 question AND come up with a real LEAN manufacturing idea. I can only offer you 2 weeks of vacation per year with no med bennies. Touche, a 10 for you.
Re: a comment on All Alone In A Selfish Moment by ARTIE	8-Dec-03/3:48 PM
No sir. I never mentioned Horus8 in that response to which you speak. My interjection: I thought the heckling had gone on quite enough. It was like two siblings caught up in a "he said - she said" blaming game that got them both sent to bed without dinner. You do have a tendency to defend yourself at every comment made - good or bad, and yes, I have noticed those that give you regular grief. Chill pills are a good thing. Learn to let go. Come up for air once in a while and breathe deeply. Stress kills.
Re: One Moment in Time by katie_jean	8-Dec-03/12:02 PM
I had a date like that once. I saw her but for a fleeting moment halfway around the world - and then I woke from a dream. Nice but disturbing memory.
Re: Why you don't fall through the floor by ?-Dave_Mysterious-?	8-Dec-03/10:42 AM
Nice, although I misplaced my Shigley. Your title reminds me of a question I ask when interviewing Engineering Co-ops. "Why is a manhole cover round, vs. any other geometric shape?" Good for checking the thought process.
Re: a comment on All Alone In A Selfish Moment by ARTIE	8-Dec-03/10:34 AM
Thanks, I appreciate and can deal with constructive criticism. It's the mindless shit that gets in the way.

You display far too much non-cumulative retentive agresssion here. In a way it's something that haunts us all, but, the cure comes with age.

"to dance with the thought of" dealing with the other four days of the week. Dreams... in the night. Big City madness leaves me to ponder the unused oven. I like the "open end".
