Oh my what heavy duty business problems does your "mind" solve while you sleep ? Or perhaps it's a deep philosophic problem that's been troubling the world.... Or is it some concerto that you are writing?..... Wow !How "powerfully impressive"!... ROTFLMAO...You so funny. Well the point is, unlike at least one truck drivin hippie I know, I am not comatose and do have a great deal of brain activity while asleep. I dare say all this is normal, pezz. But then again perhaps it is not these days. Amongst other things, I dream of music and think of solutions to problems related to projects on which I am working. Those things are activities in which I engage all the time and in which I have long engaged. They do not completely cease merely because I rest. My children are developing a series of web-based computer programs, and have been at it for nearly a year. I am very proud of the work, and hope the boys will one day use it as part of a business of some kind. None of us is super brilliant at programming, so one might imagine our encountering plenty occasions where we have been stumped by problems during the series' development. This little project has at times consumed my thoughts, and I have indeed awakened with full solutions to problems that have stumped us for days. Professional developers I know claim similar experiences. There is no mystery. The brain is but an organ possessing the job of finding solutions. It will strive to orient itself just as naturally as gravity affects matter, that is, unless it requires development, and even here the fact of its development is part of the natural effort to orient. Well I ain't gonna drop it ! I wanna know if I am dealing with a higher power here.... You are dealing with a higher power, pezz. Of course in your case this is no great issue. Or just some paranoid nut case. Hehe. Yeah pezz. You fear merely the fact of your fear, and yet you suspect I think you are out to get me. Com'on tell me the source of your wisdom.... Well, as I have said several times before. It is certainly not magic. Hey people that think they can see through the phone lines are people that I do fear. Dear me. There is at least one of your problems then. While you fear such people, I on the other hand merely expect that they will be committed. I think I am normal. But then again, perhaps you are normal. You know I have noticed that those who call others "dried up" are often less than Daises themselves. ....It's their way of hiding. But you hide very well behind that monitor. "Dried up" is a state of mind, pezz. And when one finds a truck-driving liberal with such a mind, it is particularly humourous. I know that ma truck is clearly unlike the Lincoln Town Car that you are chauffeured to the "club" for your golf game but hey it's paid for.... Good for you, pezz. But it is not your truck in itself that I find humourous. Indeed trucks are wonderful tools-- for the right people, of course. But when frowsy hippies drive them, the entire scene becomes hilarious. Hehe. BTW You is so mysterious about that profile of yours... What is it you do for a living JP?.... Everybody else here knows what everybody do..... Then I am sincerely happy for you. What you do? Just whiz around in your corporate jet doing big deals that you dream up in your sleep?. Or is it a Bank teller?. Sell ladies shoes perhaps? ....Or just settled down into that rocker? I do have a plane, yes; but I hardly travel as much as I used to. I have never been a bank teller nor sold shoes, but those are good jobs, and I cannot understand why anyone like you, of all people, would ridicule them. I would certainly have no problem doing either, and had I to do them, would do them dang well. Now I would have a problem with being a truck-drivin' hippie, and were I ever to awake to find myself such a person, I would act quickly to improve myself. Amongst the first things I would do is get a haircut and take a bath. (hint hint)
