   Just create a pleasant idea of the Creator and a happy personal philosophy to live by. It’s all you can do. All our truths, scientific or otherwise, are only relatively “true” in our limited human perception of the universe. The “truths” we live by (e.g. food nourishes us, we need air to breathe, nuclear bombs blow things up) work for us, so they are our truths. But they may not reflect the real truth which is beyond our comprehension. Quantum physics, the incompleteness theorem, and paradoxes in general have all suggested that we really have no idea what’s going on. So don’t get so excited. We really don’t know what we’re talking about.

   Don’t these girls know any cool guys they could be hanging out with? It’s nice of them to help the old bat, but wouldn’t it be better to see a refreshing new story line? – fer instance – They are cruising with the cool guys in a souped-up jalopy when Crankshafts school bus runs through a stop sign (trying to outrun a group of mothers and schoolchildren) and plows into the jalopy.

   I’m not a fan of the NBA, but I love Coltrane. He is the embodiment of modern jazz. Check out the albums, Giant Steps, My Favorite Things, Blue Train, and Miles Davis’s Kind of Blue.

   2 out of 3. Stationary IS paper, Down IS feathers, but Up is not helium.

   Even Merriam-Webster says that language is flexible, and some words evolve or simply appear and become accepted, while other words are so outdated they are dropped from the dictionary.

    Looks more like a chickadee than a robin.
