It's a little-known fact that no one under the age of 50 eats coleslaw.

One of those odd little quirks.

Well good!..i don't have to worry about no coleslaw shortage then..and beside cabbage has some chemicals in it that help keep the colon and all that in good shape. Folks under 50 don't worry about that sort of stuff. They should...but they don't. Yea,,the Koreans don't have any of that colon problems. Kno why? Cuz they grow the best and eat the best cabbage in the world. Its good for ya !....hey.. your times a comin.

Yup, cabbage is one of those cruciferous vegetables that's supposed to help protect us all from colon cancer.

I think there are *some* folks under 50 who eat coleslaw. I'm thinking in particular of the Tarheels who put it on their pulled pork sammiches. (Oh stop it. Have you ever tried it? It's very tasty!)

It seems to run in the family, as I am dead sexy.


Edit: I just want to point out that I'm not sexy dead, so nobody needs to try to find out if this is true.
Thanks. That is all.

Not to mention the INCEST!

Wow, I'm creeped out now.

Oh, wait...I seem to have misplaced reality.

The sum of your thoughts?

But would that then make your brain, you? As your brain generates thoughts?

Or does it?

The sum of your thoughts and experiences.

And while your brain generates thoughts, the thoughts themselves aren't physical as far as I can see. :D There's a little more than the sum of the parts I think. :D (Where's LoreMaster? :D )

When we are born, we are nothing? Hmm.
Or, at least, for a moment.
Then our eyes take in whereever we are, whoever is around us, and we begin to formulate who we are.

But what are we when we are born? After we have a physical form, but before we have thoughts of experiences? Are we nothing?

Then the brain is perhaps more along the lines of a telephone? It produces sounds, but isn't the sound itself?
What's on the other end of the phone?
