england's prince charles is an ugly fucker but a november 14th scorpio nevertheless and a pretty cool guy too. he is famed for combating climate change and for his love of british agricultural products and now he has found a way to combine the two: according to the prince's 07/08 annual review, which is a disclosure of the royals' financial activity for one fiscal year, the prince has apparently begun filling his personal sports car with surplus wine sourced from england. charles' 38 year old aston martin, a 21st birthday present from the queen, is now running on wine-based bioethanol, whereas his jaguar, audi and range rover cars and royal train run on biodiesel, sourced from used cooking oil.


LOL!!! i don't think my car would take too kindly to wine or cooking oil actually otherwise i might be tempted to follow the prince's lead. perhaps when i get an aston martin and preside over my own railroad, i can be as eco-friendly as he is.

i was talking to someone today about online dating. she was saying that ppl often warn against it, because of the level of obscurity, but that she doesn't see a problem with it. me, i am a skeptic.

she was saying that she knows quite a few ppl who have successful relationships with someone they met online, as do i.

so anyway...

she mentioned that you can learn alot about someone through their interaction, even if you can't see them. do you think that's true? like, how much do you think you can "read" a person by communicating w/ them online?

Not necessarily ... a persons words really don't mean much without being able to witness facial expressions, tone, body language.

When you read a book, the author HAS to spend a great amount of time explaining through history of the character, so that you can have a clear vision of what kind of person this character is, in order for you to be able to get to know the character. If the author just wrote about verbal interactions each character had with each other .. certainly, you'd be able to comprehend the words .. but, not the intent of the words without any knowledge into behaviour and personality.

Now, if all people online spent 100 pages giving you descriptions of themselves, like an author has to do with building character, then perhaps, you'd be able to discern their intent with interactions with other people.

If that were true, then fiction could just be the climax ... and we would all "get" the plot.

""They have have better verbal skills than written but the topics, the gist of their interaction remained the same.""


Really? Interesting. I thought most ppl expressed themselves better when writing compared to speaking.

I get what you're saying. Like, when I exchange IMs with friends, I immediately recognize their unique "language". Sometimes, it is almost as if we were in person.

Yes, I do too. There's this odd awareness when you are typing to someone verses talking to them or even being face to face. You can learn quite a bit about someone just by readin what they type.

People show you who they are, you just have to pay attention

Some people say its not possible, but you have to remember that not everyone is open to the same types of "internal channels of communication" (I know, probably sounds SCI-FI, but I believe in that), but IMO this would only apply to conversations via chatrooms and not e-mails or message boards. With the person LIVE, responding to your questions, you can pick quite a few things about his/her character

Evan you know your stuff man. Geez, I couldn't have put any better. Thats what I was trying to say but you put it into words better

""A vibe doesnt mean you believe everything someone says. A vibe tells you what to believe, what not to believe, and when someone is genuinely nice vs. the scheming you describe.

But thats what I meant about ppl who use logic over intuition all the time. Logic will send off a trigger that oh, this person is way too nice, hes up to something..and yet, you could very well be wrong. Intuition will tell you whether that person is genuine or not..and you can tell even if they aren't the overly nice types of people.""

Humans don't even use logic the way you're suggesting. Our brains make adjustments and "updates" that do not follow logic. for example, many of us unknowingly delay gratification for unexplained reasons. Everyone does it. That's why it kills me when ppl like branh are like, "oh, i'm so logical, look at how effectively i employ logic." this is just not so. don't delude yourself, bud.
