Wow, I so agree!! haha especially with the best friend deleting history after I die. and the folded fitted sheets, and the unplanned parenthood thing and the realizing your wrong. haha. sucks. ..
It recently occured to me.. while women only get better with age, we get wiser,and more self confident, and a beauty of it's own,and smarter... men just stay at 14-16 years of age, at most 18.
What is the last thing people see/feel/think before dying?
What would jesus say if he were to come down here.. Considering he was jewish, I don't think he'd like the whole ham thing too much...
What would happen if we could bring back people from the dead, what would they say/think?
If the whole idea of "one true love" is really realistic.. or is it something as society we made up to feel like we know and what to expect out of life, whats considered the "norm" and inside the limits of socially acceptable. Whats wrong with loving many people, responsibly.. OR.. having more than one true love?.. maybe IT IS normal to fall in and out of love. Maybe thats what we are meant to really do. People grow, why should we limit ourselves because of another person? and shouldn't it be acceptable to grow apart? I think if we didn't have this societies idea of "one true love" then maybe people wouldn't be stuck in miserable situations, or feel bad for leaving them. And it would be more acceptable to fall out of love.
Why does Steve jobs try to torture us by releasing something cooler and newer and even more wicked awesome than before?..especially if you JUST got it?? :o
Adding leopard print/sparkle to anything makes it automatically more awesome.

LOL - I have a friend who is a practicing Wiccan. Her mother still thinks she's part of the family church, and she does go occasionally to keep mom happy, even if she doesn't believe. I'm under strict orders to remove all evidence of anything wiccan in the event of her death - before her mother arrives!

Ladystardust24, you had it right the first time, we men remain 16 mentally most of the time. No mater how educated and mature seeming we"ll always do something silly from time to time. Especilly with our male friends. Sorry ladies, it is in our genes. :rofl; :rofl; :rofl; :rofl;

I love this thread but my thoughts, though random, are rarely so profound. Why don't I have two of JB's skillets and "The Shadow Knows".
This morning as I was hacking and blowing my nose over and over while doing the obligatory New Year's Day laundry (have to start the year with everything clean) I had a thought.
Unlimited is the supply of snot and dryer lint... why can't someone come up with a way to make alternative feul of them?
Now that is lack of decorum I'd say. Sorry.

More random thoughts:
Sometimes I see an old movie on TV and remember when I saw it "first run" in the theater.
I have neck ties older than some people who post on IHD.
Why do we wear neck ties anyway?
-
Because bow ties look so geeky :rofl;
-
Because ties are much better than rope - they don't leave a rope burn...I read that in a book once!

Still ties. But bow ties look better than string ties. Also, bow ties are not so ggeky in formal atire. Just my opinion.

What's wrong with being a geek. Besides, you can always use a necktie for a noose in case of emergency.

The letters T and G are very close to each other on a keyboard. This recently became all too apparent to me and consequently I will never be ending a work email with the phrase "Regards" again.
How the heck are you supposed to fold a fitted sheet?

When did home delivery service stop being "delivered to your door" and start being "tossed at your door"?
I heard a thump today, and opened the door. The Fed ex driver was already halfway back down my drive, and the package was next to the door. The fluffy inch of snow on the porch hadn't even been touched - he didn't even walk up the steps, just tossed the package and left. :stressed;

If you have a coyote problem and you bought a road runner bird, would you have a coyote problem or a yard full of pot holes problem?

Ah, but Chris would the Acme delivery truck stop to deliver their products or would they just throw them out at the the coyote as they passed by?

:cheer: Yes, you're right, I am on the computer a lot. I run 2 websites, one for living donors and one for kidney patients. I also do other things between reading all kidney related international and national news and answering emails. I check ebay, send e-cards, edit and post my photos on flickr, communicate with friends on facebook and twitter, help my son with research for high school, and other miscellaneous things. But Farmville...? Nope. Too much time spent on one thing. I already walked an hour and a half this morning so I don't mind sitting. Now I need to go out and pick the oranges off our tree, it is loaded with beautiful ripe navel oranges. I will see you again soon tyefly!

Gee Karol.... I am so jealous...... Orange tree in your yard...... thats Southern Cal for you .... Here in Oregon we are lucky to get some berries mid summer and nuts in the fall..... but we do get fresh Salmon.... guess I could trade you salmon for Oranges...... I love california Oranges...

I remember summer afternoons spent picking wild strawberries in the rolling fields behind my great-grandmother's house.

Random frustration for the day - waiting on the phone to get thru to the surgeon's office to arrange a follow up appointment. Every other voice message between the bad musak is a chipper woman telling me that I can access the website to make an appointment. Sounds better than waiting on hold, so I turn on my computer and look for the website while I'm grooving to instrumental synthesizer covers of bad 70's pop. Find the website, find the appointment section, and realize that the only thing on the page is.....the contact phone number I've just called. :waiting;

Just sent some money to my daughter who is in Puerto Rico awaiting the birth of her second son (due in a month or so). She had a hard time finding a Western Union, and ended up walking in a place she did not know and could not find anyone to tell her where it was. She made me stay online because she was a bit apprehensive. Anyway, she just told me that she got the money. I told her please get a taxi back to the hotel.
I still remember how that man killed a pregnant woman who was jogging in Puerto Rico.

Is "genius" the ability to make the complicated seem simple?

I think genius is the ability to understand the complicated as if it was simple. Making the complicated seem simple is the mark of a good teacher, not necessarily the sign of true genius. :twocents;

Random "karma's a *itch" thought for the day...
Ernesto Miranda was arrested for kidnapping and raping a teenage girl. He confessed after two hours in interrogation, but he had not been informed of his rights. He was found guilty at a trial that used his confession as evidence. His appeal went all the way to the Supreme Court, which tossed his confession. The resulting legal requirement that cops tell you your rights when you are arrested is now named after him - the Miranda warning that we all know from countless TV shows. "You have the right to remain silent......"
Ernesto was retried on the kidnapping and rape charges, and still found guilty, even without the confession. He served his sentence and was released. He was killed not long after in a bar fight. Cops arrested the only likely suspect. They had to release him without charges because they had insufficient evidence and no confession. Why was that? Because the suspect was read his Miranda warning and chose to remain silent.....
Karma.

2 random thoughts for the day....
Why don't Dollar Stores sell Lotto tickets?
And in honor of St Pat's Day -
My Irish great-grandfather Frank McNulty seduced my then-15 year old great-grandmother Leona, a penniless orphan who was working for little more than room and board at the Detroit boarding house G-gramps was staying at. As soon as G-gram told him she was pregnant, he split town and changed his name. My mom tracked 16 generations worth of family tree. The only thing we know for sure about G-gramps is he not only didn't take care of G-gram and her daughter, but he never contacted his wife and kids back in the old country again either! So why is it that my grandmother was the one everyone called a bas***d? ;D

The moon's in the news todaybecause it's supposed to look the largest in 18 years.
My random thought is that the moon looks much bigger when its near the horizon. However, if, when it's near the horizon, you bend down and view it from between your legs, it looks the normal size.
-
When I gazed at the moon tonight at dusk whilst walking my dog it was actually bright orange like an alien planet weird!

Does anyone know what
Quotica de Poyans means?
I think its Spanish but google couldn't translate it ???
-
Does anyone know what
Quotica de Poyans means?

Doesn't look even a little bit Spanish to me - Poyans appears suspiciously French.
I am going to guess that Poyans is a name, in fact I would wager it's the name of the sire or grandsire (or both, we are talking thoroughbreds). Quotica I should think is a play on the word quotient or similar, rather like naming cars nonsense words like 'Integra'. How it is properly pronounced should tell you what language the owners were thinking in. "Coh-tee-cah" could be Spanish or French, "Kwo-tee-cah" could be Italian, Latin, maybe even Portugese, I wouldn't know with the last one. Pronunciation of the other words should narrow it down to just one choice. I love languages - so interesting.
I imagine they were going for "A bit of Poyans".

Thats very clever. I have a bet on this horse in the 4.40pm race at Kelso and wondered about its name!!!

So are you rolling in money now, Sugarlump?

Everyone in America knows women have equal rights. The ERA was a bit of a fizz-out, but the 1964 Civil Rights Act ensures that no one can be discriminated against on the basis of sex. It almost wasn't part of the bill.
Want to know why?
Conservative opponents to the bill squeezed in the "because of sex" category to the list of prohibited classes at the last minute. They figured they could divide the liberal vote, by eliminated votes from those who were willing to vote for the rights of minority (at the time, read that as black) men - but were chauvinistic enough not to want to give women of any color the same rights.
It passed anyhow - and then they really had something to whine about!

why is it when I am trying to raise money for a fundraiser the people who I have gone to their wedding showers, bridal showers, baby showers, baby's first birthday parties (presents at each event) etc... only give you 5 bucks?!?!?!?! :urcrazy;
I know, I know better then nothing....

I love this too; it's so cute!
Why has my Mog-cat become so clingy? Is it because he knows I'm sad about Tabatha-cat, or is it because he's worried that if he's not nice to me he'll disappear just like she seems to have done (in his eyes.) And speaking of animals, why did my lone Guppy-fish decide to die the day after we gave him two Guppy-fish brothers in an attempt to stop him thinking he was a Molly-fish? And why do I still have fish in my unkempt broken-pumped garden pond when all the websites stipulate that fish die if you don't keep your pond clean and lovely?
Okay, enough randomness. Off for some din-dins.
;D

Why are Purple Finches red and Red Onions purple?

For the same reason that green grapes are white and white champagne is made from red grapes.

I'm fresh out of random thoughts tonight.. had a good one last night, though..
I had absentmindedly let the last bit of ice in my iced capp melt. The liquid in the bottom of the cup looked like something that would be in the bottom of a bucket after a rainstorm, but I knew that once I sucked it up into the straw, it would taste so good

My random thoughts for the day are: I feel fat today, I hate cleaning this bridcage, I can't keep up with it. Why is my husband so depressed since he returned from D? Is he mad at me or something? How can a teenager sleep so much? these finances lately have been quite stressful, I don't have the motovation to get in the shower.

Random thought for the night - What makes my cat get the "zooms" right before I want to go to sleep? Mine is tearing up and down the hall right now, chasing nothing. :urcrazy;

According to Mara Hvistendahl, author of Unnatural Selection, the practice of selectively aborting girls in countries like China and India means that 163 million girls who should have been born in the last 30 years were not.

What in the world creates a traffic "sunshine delay"? Wear some sunglasses, put down your visor and don't tailgate the person in front of you. That should take care of it.

Buying a whole new wardrobe from scratch isn't nearly as much fun as it looks on all those make-over shows. But I'd probably enjoy it more if someone had given me a credit card with several thousand dollars on it, too. :P

when you said you were buying a new wardrobe, at first I thought you meant an actual wardrobe, the wooden cupboard to keep clothes in.. I kinda need one of those

I often have very random thoughts and randomly think to myself that I should post these thoughts on the Random Thoughts board at ihd.com.
Why do I always forget my random thoughts (which are genuinely amazingly random) before I get to post them? (< that's my random thought)

Why am I so envious of people with genuine spiritual faith but so taken with the mystery of the Universe in the same right? I love discovering how we came to be as organisms, but to think there might be a cheat sheet is a bit alarming.

Why do they never call you for jury duty when you actually have time to go?
I got jury duty notice for this week, to be on call to report in for Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday. Since I'm studying to be a paralegal, I thought it would be interesting to go. Nope. I didn't have to report in for any of them. Apparently they don't call in anyone who actually wants to be there!
Not that I would have made it on a jury. I'd have been excused as soon as they found out my two classes this semester are titled "Advanced Litigation" and "Access to Justice." ;D

Why do they still make so many plastic combs, brushes and barrettes with mock-tortoise shell patterns? No one wants a real one these days.

You two would probably love the show, "Dead Like Me". (One of my favorites! I have both seasons) It's about an 18 year old girl that gets hit by a toilet seat from the Russian Space Station. She then becomes a "reaper" Each episode has the most creative ways to kill people off that I have ever seen! Black humor. I wonder sometimes how did the writers think of these things! :lol;

Probably sitting on the toilet while having a good crap. That's where I get my best ideas. I think it's cuz you're alone with your own thoughts (and stink, depending on what you ate). Unfortunately for me, by the time I'm finished, I've usually forgotten what I was thinking about.
