Re: If you are single and looking out...
Interesting, but I don't read the bible :D

You really ought to.

I say this, incidentally, because you really can't swing a two-by-four without running into a Biblical reference, so it's worthwhile to know your schiznit before it smacks you upside the head.

Jumping back a ways...Bob, you see, I have the exact opposite problem. I think. If I just act, everything works. If I start thinking I get trapped in a loop and can make no decisions, thereby resulting in irretrivable screwup at some point.

 Why not the Koran, or the Guru Granth Sahib, or the Vedic Scrolls or the Tipitaka or the Torah?

Well, WF is smart enough to stay out of the religion debates in the first place, so she doesn't really need to read up on any of them.

Because most of the people we know don't base their vernacular usage of religious text on any of those books.

I've only come across vernacular usage of religious text on the internet - and only here - never anywhere else......

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

Those would be good too, in particular the Koran.

But Biblical references are of much greater number if you have to read any serious amount of literature or argumentative essays in college. :blah:

Personally the only college essays based on religion worth a damn are the ones based off the teachings of Surak... but I digress...

Ace, that's the kind of statement that, when said in real life, causes a kind of silence to settle over the room that's not really silence at all, but the sound of everyone's soul dying a little bit.

Re: If you are single and looking out...
Back on topic: in my experience/observation of friends, etc, I've noticed that when you find yourself happy with yourself, it becomes easier to find another. That's not to say "find" in relation to looking, but more like... when they'd decide "okay, I can live with being single", later some girl would walk by, smile, and say "hi." Unforunately, this isn't always true.. but I think it's safe to say it increases your chances since being happy with yourself increases confidence, etc.

It is all about confidence! But it's a little harsh when someone is not having any luck finding anyone and keeps getting the knock back, to tell them to be more confident.

Re: If you are single and looking out...
I've decided that Britney Spears is more attractive now she's a divorced wreck. I might have to try my luck there.
Be warned: This site's admins stole 100s of hours of my work. They will do it to you.

Good for you, dude.  I have not followed her story (or seen her pictures in a while) but I trust your judgement :D

Well she's already started flashing her bits off to everyone apparently so at least you can see what you're letting yourself in for. :)
