"I had a head on collision in my jeep with a semi last fall. I should have been killed...obviously I wasn't." I didn't hear about that. ~Dan

"The world isn't out to get me... I am out to take on the world... There is a massive difference that you obviously don't recognise." I recognise the difference, but I think that's only your bravado talking. Your actions have always (to me at least) indicated a sort of victim complex. ~Dan

""progression" in this case means realizing and admitting that we don't have as strong of a grasp as we think we do... progression does not necessarily mean an increase in the classic sense of the word" If that realization and admission is all the progress i have to look forward to in the next twenty-some years, I may just slit my wrists now ;) ~Dan

The first "insightful" I've given since... well, in a very long time. This was a great blog and a breath of fresh air from the recent tension around here. The only thing I would add is that although we agree on this, others will still go below the belt, and the best response to that is either completely ignoring to them or replying to their comment literally and intellectually to guide them in the direction you want the debate to go.

Several people warned me that I would get this response if I defended Trinitie. Imajinit, I never would have expected you to pull out the "but she started it!" defense. Her actions are no excuse for yours. MadPoet, that was my first comment. It wasn't like I was trying to rub something in that I'd already said. Muggaz, I read everything by her, including the replies to her articles. Your attitude sucks, just like it always does with relat

"Shut up now." Wrong way to start a comment on anybody's site but your own. If you can get Trin to ask me to shut up, I will never post on her site again. But I don't think it's going to happen, so don't get your hopes up too much. I respect your right to ditch friends at the drop of hat- or the drop of a remark you don't agree with- but I really do think Trin's right. You're being a prick, and even those who applaud Trinitie's exi

This bugs me so much. Trin didn't mean any of this offensively. If you were offended, you should have said "I was hurt by what this said, and it doesn't fit in with what I know of our relationship" and then you should have sought further understanding. Instead, it seems like you were just waiting to get offended. I won't name any names, but some of you surprised me but how fast you shifted aleigence. If she meant much to you at all, you wo

Announcement: in response to overwhelming request, I will, from now on, be referred to as "Buddha." I wonder if some of the tenets of Buddhism are not so directly opposed to Christianity. Now I don't believe in the eight-fold path (or x-fold path) or any of those things, but meditation strikes me as a healthy practise that could do a lot of people a lot of good. ~Buddha

" Dan, has anyone ever told you that your social skills might be slightly lacking? Just a thought.... " lol now nobody has! But I don't personally agree with the whole concept of social skills... which is a story in and of itself... Cornbread, that sounds right- about 27 about normal (theoretica

Capt~nicely done! And your blogs are always a lot of fun to read~so don't sweat the IQ thing. But what's up with all this cheese stuff, huh? . I really liked this one~keep up the good work! I'm sorry, I meant it jokingly. The number is a bit high, and I was just trying to say it in a way nobody would take offensively. Trust me to be unsuccessful on that front:) ~Dan

I'm not a Bodhisattva. As a Christian, I profess to have already found enlightenment. My temporary stay on earth is not a journey toward heaven but toward perfection. But I think I know what you mean in the other sense, as well. ~Dan

"Wisefawn, why don't you think then post rather than the opposite?" Don't insult Wisefawn. She rocks. She would even if she didn't think. She would be incredible if she were a piece of fruit in a rocking chair. Take that to heart. ~Dan

"I'm sorry guys but I find this all pretty..well funny. Oh good god, don't tell me you're one of those people who actually believe in Noah's arc and the flood? What's next, you going to explain how evolution violates the law of thermal dynamics and how "scientists" have "proven" the missing day? Jesus. "Jesus died for our sins" is one example. To some of us, that statement sounds like the result of brain washing. ] I'm

"hah! Dan was wrong." That's one of my pet peeves... I sometimes wonder if people are somehow able to look over the fact that I'm wrong constantly and thus derive enormous pleasure and satisfaction with seeing me incorrect. W/e floats ur bote:) ~Dan
