Back to the topic ... one random thing about you: I hate being followed up stairs, spooks the bejaysus out of me.

I can analyze handwriting and know a person without even seeing the person.

Hi C5

I always think that is clever. My father was able to do that, he could tell exactly what people were like.

It's pretty accurate, Margaret.

I used to sign my maiden name backwards.
I can write a mirror image in script.

Muza · Apr-01-2008, 01:21

That is very very cool, and usefull I bet!

C5Says · Apr-01-2008, 01:27

Muza, it has helped me for 14 years now. I'm a poor judge of people because I usually give the benefit of the doubt. Naivity always sets in and it has actually harmed me more than once. Analyzing a handwriting specimen, though, gives me the picture of the true person.

I used to repair radios and TVs back in mid-80s.

Muza · Apr-01-2008, 01:31

Yes, I know exactly what you mean, giving people the benefit of the doubt and stuff, it is definitely not as good as it seems.

How did you acquire such a skill?

C5Says · Apr-01-2008, 01:33

Muza, books and years of practice.

marval · Apr-01-2008, 14:22

I wish I had picked up the skill from my father. it is a very handy way to tell if someone is genuine or not.

Mind you I dread to think what my writing would tell you.

One random thing about me, I can't get excited about gardening.

Margaret

C5Says · Apr-02-2008, 04:57

You're not alone, Margaret. I do like gardening, I just don't have the stuff to make a garden.

About me: I made some recycled crafts for the past 4 days.

If you follow through, no politician will ever want to debate you since they will not be able to pull the wool over your eyes. You'll be too smart for them to handle.

Corno! No Spinoza or Schopenhauer? Even a very short list of philosophy requires them, imo. Husserl, but no Heidegger or Sartre? ...and what about the rest of the 20th century? Frege, Russell, Wittgenstein, Quine -- these are musts! Not to mention Philosophy of Science! Popper, Feyerabend... I would add Pinker/Dawkins/Dennett to the list, as well; or at the very least Consciousness Explained.

Hi JLS,

I never went to Yale nor do I know what is discussed in their curriculum committees. You have good points in your riposte to me. For existentialism, Kirkegaard does the job quite well.

Cheers,

I must speak with Yale, then. They are a century behind!

One Random Fact About You - I am in love with a wonderful mature artist and most sensual woman for the first time in 9 years having lived completely in celibacy.

I am not sure whether I like spiders or not. Or whether they like me or not...

Okay, I like Bordeaux.
