Drew By Committee Member # 4233	written Monday, April 25 2005 08:04 Profile #42 My favorite quirk about vision is how our mind will fill in image gaps if a particular physical part of our eye isn't working. For example, there are no rods/cones where the optic nerve connects to the eye, so our mind will fill that tiny "blind spot" with whatever is around it - sort of like photo-editing a spot on an image. A more tragic example is the effect of macular degeneration, where the cones/rods degenerate over time. My grandfather, who suffered from macular degeneration (before he passed on), while driving could make out the shapes of highway signs (the big green ones), but they would appear to him to have no writing on them. (He stopped driving very soon after this started happening to him, though this didn't sadden him as much as pages of books appearing blank.) Posts: 2242 \| Registered: Saturday, April 10 2004 07:00

Do you think there is a Hell? in General
Drew By Committee Member # 4233	written Tuesday, April 19 2005 12:06 Profile #275 quote: Originally written by Maxmillion: Scientific studies have shown that when people are praying or participating in religous ceremony, their brain gets flooded by endorphins, the "feel good" hormone of the body. This also happens when one eats or hangs outside on a sunny day. This is the "holy spirit" that keeps on being used as proof. Well, maybe the big G is flooding their minds with endorphins as a reward for their behavior? :) I felt the same way back when I was way more Christian than I am now (deist me). I felt the same way when I told my fiancee that I loved her the first time, as well as when I asked her to marry me. In retrospect, I don't think it's the Holy Spirit - unless it's the holy spirit I'm feeling every time I orgasm.

While I don't know what his "politics" are, I understand that he's somewhat hardlined on all the traditional Catholic values that John Paul II championed.

Ahhh...School in General
Drew By Committee Member # 4233	written Monday, April 18 2005 12:54 Profile #10 I disagree. School was mind-bogglingly easy in comparison to having to work eight hour days, and as the saying goes, "not everyone can be an astronaut." While it's certainly nice not having to worry about homework anymore, the lack of vacation (I get two weeks out of fifty-two a year) and ability to experience the daylight hours is a much bigger drag. Oh, if only I had it all to do over again... Is there anyone here who has a full-time job that finds it totally fulfilling and easier than school was?

Gamestop buys EB Games in General
Drew By Committee Member # 4233	written Monday, April 18 2005 12:47 Profile #3 Don't forget though that they're competing against the large dealers (BestBuy, Walmart), which tend to carry the most popular games at better prices, as well as the internet, where everything is cheaper. It was probably a survival move on their part. Posts: 2242 \| Registered: Saturday, April 10 2004 07:00

Phaedra in Blades of Avernum
Drew By Committee Member # 4233	written Friday, April 15 2005 20:27 Profile #139 That's an interesting point; I do know that it's the case, for example, that my fiancee is much more concerned with my appearance than I am. I guess as far as it goes for me, my primary concern is being comfortable. I don't usually object too strongly when she wants me to wear a certain pair of jeans, or a certain shirt, or certain shoes, because usually, it's a small sacrifice to make for her happiness. Given the choice, however, I'm perfectly content to be unshaven and wear my old jeans and decidedly out-of-style Birks. The funny thing is that she was never fashion conscious until she went to college, and according to her, it was the other girls, not the guys, that made her want to dress better. Why was this suddenly important? She grew up in a small town in Connecticut, with essentially the same classmates the entire way through, so I'm guessing that social standing was pretty much set in stone, no matter what clothes people wore. Once she went to college, however, she was in a whole new ballpark, and she realized the role that even superficial perceptions play in relations. Generally, I don't get too caught up in dressing well, because I don't care too much what other people think about the way I look - I'm me, a somewhat surly yet thoughtful Kentuckian, and people will either dig me or not. Granted, this is much easier to assert now that I don't have to sweat looking for a mate anymore, though in truth I was never banking too much on my looks for that anyway! :) Posts: 2242 \| Registered: Saturday, April 10 2004 07:00
