Randomness

[Cogito]

Based on the state of the shops around Milton Keynes, I suspect they're all out shopping. It's a nightmare out there I tell you, a nightmare.

I know I'm suffering from claustrophobia-like attacks in dense crowds. Which is why at least 20 people fell over after I just punched everything that looked like a people yesterday. I'm a liability in crowds I hate being crowded

That must make me the most fucked up human being in the world. I'm right in the thick of it in a heavy metal concert, even taking part in the wall of death, but crowd me in a mall and I become a violent claustrophobic

Why in the hell do you think I like fishing. Especially in cold weather, tends to thin out the crowd

[Cogito]

Not in the Darwinian sense, I hope.

Hey Cog,

My two handed winter fly fishing is kind of a small community, rarely does an accident occur. Unfortunately they tend to be serious. You have to be cautious. The trade off is not necessarily great fishing, if one needs to catch lots of fish for great fishing. The peace and quiet is deafening. And with the slow swing of the fly and usually a minute between casts, you can get alot of thinking done. Last year many a plot bunny hopped around in my melon!

Ugh, tell me about it. We live in a fairly quiet neighborhood for Tokyo and we work in the same building we live in so we usually don't deal with rush hour commutes. We went to Shibuya, one of the closest shopping districts, over the weekend. Too many people! And Japanese people don't even buy that many gifts for Christmas, this was just a normal weekend shopping day.

Apparently Jolene Blalock is now a mother of two, not just one. At least her Twitter page says "Ryder and Rivers mom". Good for her!

I got this in an email. Dunno if the stats are true, but I thought it was funny.

For those of you who watch what you eat, here's the final word on nutrition and health. It's a relief to know the truth after all those conflicting nutritional studies.

1. The Japanese eat very little fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than Brits.

2. The Mexicans eat a lot of fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than Brits.

3. The Chinese drink very little red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks than Brits.

4. The Italians drink a lot of red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks than Brits.

5. The Germans drink a lot of beer and eat lots of sausages and fats and suffer fewer heart attacks than Brits.

CONCLUSION: Eat and drink what you like. Speaking English is apparently what kills you.

[Asso]

Luckily I usually speak Italian.

How to Cope With All The Stages of Fan Letdown

So where are you in regards to a former favourite TV show/movie?

[Alelou]

LOL. Good analysis. You can find examples of all of that here.

Nothing like introspective thinking (about SB specifically, but then the mind wandered), lit a candle this morning shed and am still shedding some tears , but when faced by sadness I head elsewhere eventually so....

Some favorite Winston Churchill quotes, the greatest single figure of the twentieth century and I am American.

"If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves."

"It has been said that democracy is the worst form of government except all the others that have been tried."

and of course

Bessie Braddock: “Sir, you are drunk.”
Churchill: “Madam, you are ugly. In the morning, I shall be sober.”

God's Peace be upon you SilverBullet

I think I have randomness covered.
