			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>over the past few years I have come up with enough ideas to finally conclude (at least to me ) the theory of everything. <br />
<br />
Looking at it now, the Concept was simple<br />
<br />
 I realized an overall energy was there, motion  and that everything lead to motion (all energy is motion all matter is motion) <br />
<br />
and knowing that motion needed a &quot;shell&quot; to hold it all, it lead to space . <br />
<br />
I realized without motion you have no time and I realized Gravity  coming directly from motion as well<br />
<br />
the concept was simple and fit the complex ..why do we see, hear, smell, walk on top of the ground, have trees, houses, space, stars, electricity, gravity, magnetism, atoms, protons, neutrons, electrons, music, radio, infra red light, gamma rays, expansion of space time.. all of it is answered ,everything.<br />
<br />
 it all fits in with this simple conclusion.. <br />
<br />
motion is why..motion through space produces everything.<br />
<br />
all the things listed above and the thousands of other things not...  are because each one is brought on by motion, be it vibrational wave, slow, fast, super fast spinning with vibrations, spinning vibrating and ...<br />
<br />
well you can mix it all around and depending on rates of speed or vibrational spin any type of motion you can think of it will produce the different particle or particles, this motion through space (vibration is motion through space just a small amount of space, but motion through space) makes it all ..<br />
<br />
space will bend and fold or other depending on the speed of the motion and directions,this gives the motion its shape  &quot;holding&quot; its shape in place.<br />
<br />
 when atoms come together, space is folding for attraction ..<br />
<br />
this is the basic concept and easy to understand my theory is called the moving toe :)</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>The wedding is fast approaching and it's time to pack as I only have two days to do so. A trip to Mexico is going to require some serious planning. To help ease my procrastination, my fiancee sent me the following list of things she recommends that I pack:<br />
<br />
<div style="margin:20px; margin-top:5px; ">
	<div class="smallfont" style="margin-bottom:2px">Quote:</div>
	<table cellpadding="6" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%">
	<tr>
		<td class="alt2" style="border:1px inset">
			
				I suggest to start packing (or piling up in a corner):<br />
-binoculars<br />
-crazy glue (seems weird, but it's small and could really help in a pinch)<br />
-do you still have the spanish-english dictionary i got you for christmas?<br />
-hat, sunscreen,etc!
			
		</td>
	</tr>
	</table>
</div>Crazy glue? :lol:<br />
I almost fell out of my chair laughing!<br />
I'm marrying McGuyver! :eek2: :hihi: <br />
<br />
She's smart like that though. It keeps me in check. ;)<br />
Chances are we will direly need some super glue...I have to bring it now, just to ensure that we don't need it. :hihi:<br />
<br />
Good times, good times! :)</div>

<br />
---<br />
<br />
Damn the 30 minute lunch break. It took me 6 minutes to get to the sandwich shop and the line will easily put me back another 4-5 minutes. That gives me about 13 minutes to eat.<br />
<br />
I'm a slow eater and I also pay attention. <br />
<br />
The fellow in front of me in line had paid almost the full amount of his bill when he had to &quot;go to his car to get some change&quot;. Which, btw, is a cashier's worst nightmare. <br />
<br />
As I was voraciously consuming my recently purchased consumables, it occurred to me that something was not right.<br />
<br />
As I opened the outside door and peered trashcan-side, it became obvious that my civic duties for the day were not complete. &quot;Hey&quot;, I yelled, at the apparently drunken trash-digger outside the store. <br />
<br />
&quot;Whaaat??&quot;, he answered in a trilling voice that begged for mercy, or at least help. <br />
<br />
&quot;Want a taco?&quot;, I cautiously inquired.<br />
<br />
&quot;Is it a tequila taco?&quot;<br />
<br />
...errr...no...<br />
<br />
&quot;It's got meat and cheese and lettuce&quot;, I replied.<br />
<br />
&quot;No, thanks, I find alcohol.&quot;<br />
<br />
As I drove away, I couldn't help but wonder, &quot;How is he getting alcohol from the TBell trashcan?&quot;<br />
<br />
It's a question I couldn't ponder for too long. :eek2:<br />
<br />
But, I can't help myself. :D<br />
<br />
I turned my car around and approached the trash-digger.<br />
<br />
&quot;Hey, how are you making alcohol out of trash?&quot;, I asked.<br />
<br />
He lifted a bag and smiled. This did not satisfy my curiousity enough, so I opened the bag and took a whiff. Wow! It was ripe. <br />
<br />
I inquired upon what he does with this type of bag. Turns out, he makes quite a bit of money from it. Who'd a thunk it?<br />
<br />
One man gathers what another man spills :phones:</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>We got a memo around the office this week that a new monitoring program has been installed at NASA, and that &quot;big brother&quot; will be taking a more active interest in our internet sojourns. The new rules forbid not just visiting sites with questionable or offensive content, but ANY site that is not directly work related.<br />
<br />
So, my posts will (mostly) come from home now.<br />
<br />
Only the trouble is, I don't know what to post anymore. None of the science threads seem to interest me any more. I find that I'm a bit more bored than usual these days--even with Hypography.  <br />
<br />
I hope this condition is temporary. I may be scarce in the coming days, but I'm not leaving Hypography. I just gotta go out there somewhere and find something I feel passionate about. Hopefully it will be work related.<br />
<br />
Toodles.</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>While in the jungle of uncontrolled thought, one can only get direction from blankness. It has no bearing on most everything, but is most essential to sleep.<br />
<br />
Ahhh...to sleep...<br />
To count some sheep<br />
<br />
---<br />
Staring at the ceiling, my mind was racing.<br />
<br />
&quot;Should I tell her?&quot;<br />
I thought to myself.<br />
<br />
Well, let's see.<br />
<br />
&quot;Baby?&quot;<br />
&quot;Baby.&quot;<br />
<br />
A slight moan let me know that she heard me (I think it was a yes, but how do you interpret uhhhhhnnnuhhh?).<br />
<br />
&quot;Baby&quot;, I whispered again.<br />
&quot;Uhhhhunnh&quot;, she replied. (pillows make great mufflers btw)<br />
<br />
&quot;What do you think about the evolution of man and the future of humanity?&quot;<br />
<br />
...<br />
...<br />
...<br />
<br />
&quot;Uhhhuunnnh&quot;, she replied.<br />
<br />
&quot;So you believe that humanity can overcome its weaknesses in time to prevent the inevitable extinction that comes to every species we have ever known or studied?&quot;<br />
<br />
...<br />
...<br />
<br />
&quot;Yes!&quot;<br />
<br />
I almost fell out of the bed! Who would not be stifled going from muffled-pillow murmurs to a shrill and certain &quot;YES!&quot;.<br />
<br />
As I regained my composure, I had to ask again, &quot;So, you think it's possible?&quot;<br />
<br />
&quot;What's possible?&quot;, she replies, now obviously more in a state of half-awake frustration.<br />
<br />
&quot;Survival! Continuity! The propogation of what is good about us!&quot;<br />
<br />
And as her mouth turned towards the muffling comfort, I could barely make out, &quot;Go to sleep baby&quot;.<br />
<br />
And the ceiling and I are one again.<br />
<br />

You can only make wedding rings out of socks by slowly whittling them down, Mandelbrot-style.<br />
<br />
Unfortunately, no one is keen on this. :rolleyes:<br />

So, wish me well on Saturday! I'll need it!<br />

I've already assumed the role of befuddled housemate. Might as well seal the deal. :hihi:</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Now that they are reunited, they seem strange on my feet. Did I say &quot;they&quot;? I meant &quot;them&quot;. I'm still missing 4 brave men (socks). If you happen to see an argyle stripe down both sides of a &quot;left&quot; footed sock, contact me asap!<br />
<br />
---<br />
<br />
Moving requires cleaning out!<br />
But, that doesn't mean that my *perfectly good pair* of boy scout socks should suffer the wrath of the Goodwill pile!<br />
<br />
I might as well bee shouting into a honeycomb!<br />
<br />
*whoop* there go the matching pair. :(<br />
<br />
---<br />
<br />
I'm left with:<br />
<br />
1)black sock plain<br />
2)black sock with argyle all over<br />
3)black sock with argyle down the side<br />
4)white Russel sock that is dirty, but still present in the clean pile<br />
5)a white sock that makes me believe it is the Russell pairing, but it's from a different year, and shorter.<br />
6)Black sock plain = MATCH!<br />
7)black sock with Argyle down the side = MATCH!<br />
8)black thin sock with no markings (might be the lady's<br />
9)white sock with grey toe spot<br />
10)grey sock with white toespot :doh:<br />
<br />
Let them leave peacefully and no one will get hurt!!<br />
<br />
AArgH!!! :doh:<br />
What next? Self-serving sox?</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>How many one socks have you got?<br />
<br />
I have several one socks. I keep them around in case the other shows up some day (they never do). Where do they go? None of my other clothing disappears, but yet, I seem to lose socks all the time, well, just one.<br />
<br />
---<br />
<br />
I thought I had it figured out. It must be the dryer! Yes, it was obvious. The dryer was secretly stealing one sock at a time, thinking I wouldn't notice. <br />
<br />
After I had pulled the dryer from the wall and disassembled/reassembled it, I was convinced that there must be some other reason.<br />
<br />
And then, one day, my girlfriend and I were having a lovely dinner. While we were talking and eating, she crossed her legs and...There was one of my missing socks! <br />
<br />
AHA! I yelled. (While she gave me the usual quizzical stare that only the girlfriend of a geek can muster.) &quot;It was you all along!&quot; You took that sock, not the dryer. <br />
<br />
She was unflinched.<br />
<br />
In her calmest of voices, she quietly demanded that I return her missing socks and that mine were being held as ransom.<br />
<br />
Damn she's good.<br />
<br />
But hold on a second, where did you get my sock from, I asked.<br />
<br />
And with a lip-curled smile that I will never remember, she whispered, &quot;From behind the dryer&quot;.<br />
<br />
---<br />
<br />
Even people who can't afford socks have matching socks. I tried to take my one socks to the Salvation Army and they told me I must donate in pairs.<br />
<br />
