A (Mc)flurry of non related items. Enjoy:

1. Elisa talked about Xanga's/Blogs during her Friday Bible Study message and how some of the blogs she reads are too angry and hateful. I hoped she wasn't thinking about my little ol' blog here. I like to think of this blog as a corner coffee shop, where people can gather to chat and leave pleasant messages. Occasionally the chat will include racist comments and be about other people and the pictures they take (yet refuse to release to the public), but other than that, this is a website that Ghandi would be proud of. I'm not so sure if Martin Luther King would approve though.

2. Selina seems to have some furious anger in her last message. I don't fault her, I understand everything she is saying. I think getting out that furious anger is good so it doesn't build up inside like a giant meatball dipped in tomato sauce. Mmm.

3. Speaking of Selina, I added her site to the Lemmyboy Website Column of Fame on the left. If you wish to have your website here, please leave your site address in the comments box. There's always room for more websites.

4. I know I am not a great conversationalist. Sometimes when I don't like the person I'll give short one word answers. Other times, when I do enjoy talking the person, I'm still not a great talker. I prefer to think of myself more as a listener. When I'm in a car with someone, I usually don't talk. It's nothing personal, its just if the person wants to talk about something, that's fine with me. But I'm usually not the type of guy who'll bring up topics. I think people get offended when I don't talk. I think a nice quiet ride is very meaningful.

5. I don't have a very good "fake laugh." I usually laugh only if something is funny, I try not fake a laugh just to make someone feel good, unless I really feel sorry for them (don't worry you guys reading this, I'm not talking about any of you, trust me). Some people are very good at it and I notice that the good ones can keep a conversation going just by making their fake laughs at the right moments. I was watching some guy in class doing his fake laughs with a girl next to him as they chatted. As he continued to fake his laugh, the girl got more into it because she thought she was interesting. I swear if the two kept it up any longer they'd be all over each other.

6. I noticed that I'm weird. I cut my meat with a knife in my left hand while holding my fork in my right hand. I throw and bat with my right, yet kick and write with my left. I'm a prodigy.

This concludes my daily message.
