What happened?

Did the bar close early?

You either need to stop taking what you're taking or increase its dosage.

Truly X-Citing....

>>Money is nice to get what you want, other than that it is useless in and of itself- as far as I am concerned. People who worship money, and who want to spend their lives in the getting of money, pursue an existence I find meaningless (again just my opinion). What I love to do I would (and have done) for free. Of course it is a luxury to be in love with what you do in the world. I am glad to have that luxury. I enjoy it a lot.>>

You're starting to get TOO positive X!!

Watch that emotion meter!!

You have a wonderful sense of perspective and humor!
And please don't take this to heart for it would simply obscure the focus of energy.

Life IS wonderfully X-Citing!!

Cyber rulers
or
Measuring dissonance

Symmetry applies to the relationship that exists between your digital self and your real self. This symmetry is not based on any choice you make but is a result of everything that you actually are out there and everything you choose to express in here. Most of the discussion on this thread centers around the real world and many of the observations do not apply to avatars. It is difficult to sustain strong memes in here, meme valency causes counter-memes to appear and the attractive force of cybergravity results in spectacular collisions, I like it. The ensuing destruction releases lots of energy and that is always usable in here. Time symmetry is something that does not exist between this place and taht. What I mean by this is that how many hours you spend online bears no relation at all to the strength of your digital projection. Money cannot buy you a strong coherent avatar, it can only pay for a high speed connection. A strong digital projection requires the handling of even toxic memes, something that is clearly impossible for those bound in any rigid structure.

I like the personal vessel concept, a complete truth can be fashioned within the bounds of the consciousness, when that happens, times up.

I enjoy lunch out there a lot more than in here, beer and companionship can be found in both worlds.
