Does Death Exist? New Theory Says 'No'
Commented Dec 09, 2009 at 13:19:58 in Living
“I don't fear my death or the possible pain. I fear the death of those I know and care about and love, I'm selfish, I don't want to lose them. Don't know where or if we go and don't care for me personally. What are funerals except for the living?”

“Therein lies the saddness of death, the loss of those we love. Very well put.”
Does Death Exist? New Theory Says 'No'

“I've always felt we are limited by our "senses". We see a certain light spectrum, hear a certain audio frequency and we tend to believe that's all that is real, I know a little too much Carlos Castenada in those thoughts. Animals seem to move more in the audio spectrum. I adopted a couple of rescue cats from our Humane Society and lured them out to visit by putting on some gentle classical piano music. An earlier cat that shared my home would appear everytime I put some Dave Bruckeck on the turntable.”

“Here in West Michigan (very bible belt) a bunch of ponzi schemes have been run by xtians and most of them were done through the churches, no by the churches but they'd carry their religion on their sleeve and hit up the whole congregation.”

“NOT like google. I like google, I've tried bing and it's annoying.”

“To me, Bing's greatest function is its photo search, which I like better than Google's. Beyond that, I prefer Google.”

“LOL. Point taken.”
Does the World Need Pop-Tarts?
Commented Nov 18, 2009 at 11:21:19 in Green
“I'll bet you think elves in a tree make the cookies for Keebler too! No, seriously, they make pop tarts here in Grand Rapids, Mi, Kellog seems to be a pretty good employer, they pay their workers well and there is a nice aroma when you drive along 28th Street near the plant. One thing though, keep an eye on them, they tend to catch fire if you over toast them.”

“How very christian of the catholic church! I seem to remember a story I read somewhere about a crowd of people, and a couple of loaves of bread and some fish!”
AddyGmom replied on Nov 12, 2009 at 10:09:00
“Yep! I recall that story. It was ok, tho because they'd stoned all the homo sex people and the disobedient women, and the harlots, and the women adulterers and people who just pis sed them off.
Besides, there was Pox noise covering the event ---- You know how they inflate numbers when needed. It was probably on 500 rather than 5,000.”

Has Warren Gone Off the Rails?
Commented Nov 05, 2009 at 14:12:31 in Business
“He also gets the tracks! He will be charging every type of train that travels on "his" tracks! As we move into more rail to move people all that track will get lot's of heavy use. CSX is running an ad that talks about how many miles it can move tons of goods for 1 gallon of fuel. Seems like a good bet to me!”
Tell Us: What Should Restaurant Diners Never Do?
Commented Nov 05, 2009 at 13:11:55 in Style
“I'll preface this by saying I am a huge "greasy spoon" fan! The most important things I've learned from dining out are kindness and courtesy. If there is a problem, a soft voiced query as opposed to a loud complaint will resolve it. Remember, when it goes back to the kitchen you want the cooks on your side not teed off at you.”

“I LOVE the idea of a multi party political system. The lobbyists wouldn't have enough money to corrupt them all. Right now we have one party with two branches!”

“They have plenty of money to go around. Especially the smaller states which takes less $$$ to run on.

The Paradoxical Emotions Of A Fatal Diagnosis
Commented Oct 27, 2009 at 11:09:55 in Living
“My sympathies on your diagnosis. A dear friend of mine, 67 years old, non smoker, non drinker, kept himself in pretty good shape, was diagnosed with Pancreatic cancer that had spread to his liver and spots were found on his lungs. This was back in March. He asked his doctor what could be done and was told chemo could help for pain control but Not for extending his life. He was quiet for a few days and then started to make decisions. He decided to forgo the chemo and opted for Hospice when the time would approach. He went through a lot of different emotions in the ensuing months and wrote his own obituary. If I may quote a line from it....pass
Cranbot replied on Oct 27, 2009 at 19:43:06
“A childhood friend's father is going through much the same thing tonight only faster. A month ago he was diagnosed with a blood clot in his leg and then they thought it moved to his lung. Upon further examination he was diagnosed with end stage pancreatic cancer. He was moved to hospice today and is in a coma tonight. He is 72. He never complained of any symptoms. He looked well.
None of us know what the next instant will bring.”
