| I rarely speak out loud like everyone's describing, but I most definitely carry on conversations in my head. I'm not actually speaking to myself, it's always to other people who just don't happen to be right here at the moment. :wink: It just dawned on me a couple weeks ago that what I'm actually do... |

| I'd spawn a small perpetual motion machine which produces power that could be harnessed to power all forms of transportation. With nobody needing fossil fuels anymore, we might actually have peace in the Middle-East, since nobody would fight over something as worthless as crude oil. |

| I have my own ideas on the various type of small talk. Essentially it's a form of sub-communication...and it's not pointless. Although I agree it IS annoying, it does serve a purpose. 1) Small talk with the person you just met - If they initate the conversation, this is essentially a way of 'sniffin... |

| When I was in the Army back in the mid-80s, I saved up my money to buy a car...a 1967 Mustang. I was so excited when I finally took possession of the car on a Friday, and then spent the entire weekend driving, playing with it, etc. When I got up Monday morning and was preparing for the day, I sudden... |

| I used to cry all the time up until I started going to high school, and then it just suddenly stopped. I can only distinctly remember crying four times since I graduated in the early '80s. 1988 - Twice on the same day, when my daughter was born. Once when I was told her mother was getting a C-sectio... |
