    Youngwriter,

    Can I ask if you write in the local paper, or just school-wise? The papers around here are shitty--all of them, and I'd only be interested in doing more national stuff, but I thought that I wouldn't be able to get a job at a good paper without a diploma and qualifications from college.

    What do you write? Blue is write, heheh, we should square off some time, you and me. It's odd how we haven't met up here before.....at least to my memory, that is.

    5. I nearly always have a book in-hand or at-hand. I spend 6 hours a week lifting weights. In the summer I garden, hike in the mountains and travel.

    6. Philosophy and mathematics are both passions of mine.

    7. I'm afraid that I'm not qualified to do much of anything.

    9. I live and work alone for half of each week in a little hut at the top of Vermont's highest mountain. I maintain a transmitter for CBS television. BTW, an article is in this month's (Jan / Feb, 2003) issue of Yankee Magazine about my life on the mountain; The Iceman Cometh, p.70. The photo of me was taken last winter; before I began shaving my head.

    Isn't there some disclaimer rule at most forums that say you have to be at least 13 to join an online forum?

    Is there something wrong with kittens, particularly those of the 'fluffy' variety? What's more, doesn't everyone consider the concept of "love"? The posts I found on here regarding the "definition of love" were plentiful in number. I am sure not all contributors to the forum were err.. "blonde"

    Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!



    There is no apparent correlation between "fluffy kitten=>love=>blonde"
    Nor would I have thought there existed a correlation between
    "literate =>academic qualifications => blonde

    Refrain from the blonde remarks ;-) There is little room for winning there

  22. Welcome to Sciforums!

    Don't take comments personal, because we have many sarcastic, cynical & even some mean members posting here. And since there is a lot of anonymity, some very childish behavior.

    But we also have some very thoughtful, intelligent people, so ignore the bores & have fun!
