        Hi Klara...just got back from the gym...checked responses, no action! DEAD! Thought I'd try to get some blood flowing again in the forum arteries.

              Well, I don't think I qualify as a "smarty", more like a "smart-aS$. Then tell me... what am I doing in your forum?

                Klara:  My forum? c'mon woman, give me a break! When did this become my forum?   :-) I'm just here to exercise the brain after a hard "physical" workout...ya gotta workout both ya know..I get  "small talk" during my workouts...when I get home I'm a serious MF!......lol
                I really don't care, seriously, if "hubbers" don't want to follow up on some of my comments...I like it if they do and if they are thoughtfully worded and the content can be mulled over and responded to intellectually.
                I have both sides tho...the silly and the serious...depends on how sumthin' strikes me.
                I have fun with you, but you know I do have a very deep and serious side.........and I love that side of me 'specially" when it's challenged.
                You know I'm here for entertainment, and to practice my typing...lol
                Like Popeye says, "I yam what I yam..."
                TAke me or leave me I'm very comfortable in my skin.
                yer a grrrrrrrrrrrrrreat gal...says Tony the Tiger!   :-)

    Hey Qwark, don't for to include yourself in those who are imperfect as well. lol

    Before change the path or it's direction, one must first realize the path is destructive and that's the problem, there are not enough people yet to realize that the path humanity is on, is actually going to be destructive.

    Once more people truly realize it, recognize it, then and only then can a change be made. wink

      Hi Cag:  As Aristotle said: (paraphrase) I am, certainly, the most ignrorant of men.
      I must agree with him...lol :-)
      That realization can only be dreamed. It can't be achieved.

    You know Qwark, the Bible often likens men (meaning mankind) to sheep. Sheep are the dumbest animals on earth. They do the stupidest things and make the same stupid mistakes time and again. Maybe a study on sheep is in order.

      Lamb...oh gosh, I've studied yer bible...I think that this god thing it mentions and which alledgedly said "Let us create "man" in our image." should be the metaphysical entity to be studied...If we're as dumb as sheep and this god thing created us in "its" image, what does that say about this god thing?...ever thought of that?
