Tell me something about you that I don't know
Well, at least in terms of cerebral lobes, that is.. :laugh3: Who'd want to be totally balanced anyways? Just be U ;) And yes, what is a J-pop band? I've seen a lollipop band, or at least a lollipop guild.. is it like that? Hip-Hop, then J-Pop?:inquisitive:

I don't know what to do with my life.
Alright, be a heavily armed escort then! :laugh3: And just steer clear of those place with cereal killers, they leave a lot of soggy corn flakes on the tables and such. ;) I get to be a chauffeur tomorrow, yippee! I need to invest in one of those stylish caps and the wool tweed jackets. :biker:

Tell me something about you that I don't know
:rolleyes: Damn artists, they're just too balanced in life!:P > Something that you, whoever the 'you' is, doesn't know about me yet... hm... I find it fascinating that bubbles are frozen in lake ice at different depths - simple things like that really catch my interest. (plus with no snow, you can see all these bubbles like stuck in the ice beneath one's feet, it's really cool and bizarre!)

Haiti earthquake - Chris' message
:sunny:Here's what I've been thinking.:thinking2: Be a lever puller. :bulb2: Ringo :elvis: was a born lever puller, and so should we. :bobby: All the donations of aid are great, but this matter is larger than any one of us - it requires that we pull the right levers, to get a handle on power:elephant:. Often countries such as Haiti have been economically crushed via bad policies concocted in the dominant nations of the north, by those who have the most economic power (controllers of multi-national corporations, the big banks, and so forth). So to change the overall equation we need to regain control of our own governments, diversify the ownership of giant corporations and banks, move towards equitably owned and controlled banks and corporations, and demand limits on spending in elections, especially on maximum contributions to candidates - this will make candidates beholden again to our will, to a broad base of support at the bottom of the pyramid, not to the plutocrats. Which then allows us to shape policies that are fair and promote wellness in Haiti, so extreme poverty is ended, and there is continual improvement in all places - a global system of equity and harmony. So be a lever puller - support amendments to reform the campaign financing system, regain control over corporate behemoths, and return government to it's role as the arbiter of fair play and promoter of human wellness. Because everyone deserves opportunity and improvement in life.:wink: So be a born lever puller!

What Time Is it and what are you doing ??
11:38 AM, and contemplating how to create order out of chaos in the known Universe. (I've got to clean up this mess, make sense of all this stuff!:laugh3:). It's like eating an elephant - one bite at a time. :elephant: [[[[[~]]]]] [[[[[~]]]]] [[[[[~]]]]] [[[[[~]]]]] [[[[[~]]]]]

What are you thinking right now?
I think I could get a lot of things done, if I wasn't on-line so much!:laugh3: Maybe today is the day to get stuff done.:thinking: Or at least I can be productive on-line, learn something useful, play music in the background...:woodstock: birdsongs or something..

Tell me something about you that I don't know
Imagination is more powerful than knowledge, so said Albert. And all those tests are an approximation really, so don't take it literally, and besides, intelligence is variable, can be developed. Light pollution is a bummer, yes, I've seen images of the coast from space, it's quite bright! We could use some comprehensive codes on outdoor lighting fixtures and such.. Theoretical Physics - I think the answers are still not all in yet, probably it will take someone with creative thinking to propose a new hypothesis. >something unknown about me? um, I co-built a sawmill from car tires and axles once! And it worked!

13 must be lucky for you then! ^^I became a meteor watcher!:P I saw a meteor explode and heard the bang, that was rare & cool.:cool: And I've heard that some of the dust landing on cars and outside furniture is actually meteorite dust! So we've all brushed off meteorites, and didn't even know it.
