I lean toward Democrat, but I think Obama gravely screwed Syria by assuring rebels and then walking away. I kind of doubt trump will accomplish anythi...

No. There's another dangerous spider here called Brown Recluse, but they're shy. So if you came across a funnel-web spider, would you kill it?

They're not hostile at all. I actually had one on me and it didn't offer to bite. When I think of it, I've been around them all my life and never been...

Usually not. They're under things as well. They start behaving a little oddly in the autumn though.

Sounds like you have bug buddhist tendencies as well. Black widows aren't aggressive. But that one was in my house. Too close.

I'm a Bug Buddhist. Seriously. I'm taking my recycling to work to dispose of it because some ants started a civilization in the bottom of the recyclin...

Yes. Good point.

I did send out a memo on that. Maybe it was eaten by a virus and transformed into a command to launch a nuclear strike on Sweden. Hope not. Arthur C C...

Oh, actually that sounds fascinating. Thanks!
May 18, 2017 at 01:28
I'm not sure if it's philosophical or psychological. Both?

I'm anti-swashbuckling. It should be illegal. No, I haven't seen Black Sails. It's probably on the Roku somewhere.

Just put it in your brownies. Or scones... whatever you guys eat with your warm beverage.

CEO? I think he should probably be checked for signs of dementia.

Your third point resonates with me, but I wonder then about the way a philosopher speaks for a certain culture or generation. It's not a private persp...
