What is a "string" in the sting theory of the dimensional universe?
|
 Given the diversity of the human species, there is no “normal” human genome sequence. We are all mutants.

I don't think it matters though. The few people on this planet who possess the cognitive horsepower to make useful sense out of these theories (i.e. not read a book and get the concept but rather build and apply new theory) is so small that they all might just be crazy anyway.
Most people just say WTF and go to church.

About a dozen according to string theory but that's from memory.

A one dimensional particle that has characteristics determined by it's vibration.
Having read several books that talk about the subject, and even fooling myself into thinking I understood a few pages, I can only wonder what kind of secret geek weed these guys smoke to think of this stuff.

"Don't" isn't an accurate statement.
I've fished quite a bit, and plan to fish more in the future. A "don't" at this time indicates a fixed sample rate which is impossible considering you don't know the future.

I think "dont" implies present tense, not past or future. For example, If I asked if you have a dollar I can borrow, and at the current time, you do not have one. You would reply, "I don't" Its irrelevant if you had money before or plan to have it another day.
I also think "fish" means an ongoing activity, passion or pursuit. Fish, to me, does not mean "going fishing", theres a big difference.
This is the last question I ask, this thread is dull.  |

"Present tense" would be "Spence isn't fishing."
You know I have fished as you've taken me out on the S.S. Eelslime 
Granted, my fishing has slowed to a halt, but there are legitimate reasons and I don't plan for the hiatus to be permanent. If this wasn't the case I wouldn't still have a wall full of plugs, 1/2 dozen rods etc... (including a plug display I still have to photograph  )
If by "fish" you mean some die hard surfcasting (opps, forgot you're a boat guy) lifestyle where one sacrifices many things in the reckless persuit of fish...then no, I don't think I fish.

Hey Spence,
Is it true that you can catch crabs from sitting on a public toilet seat? I always cover the seat with paper, but I have to assume they can rip through the paper and hop a ride.
I ask because after my trip to Vegas, I had crabs, even though the hooker assured me she was clean. I figured it had to be from a toilet seat then.

If you get crabs, and apply some "Old Bay", will that make them go away? 
If a hen and a half laid an egg and a half in a day and a half, how long would it take a grasshopper with a wooden leg to kick all the seeds out of a dill pickle? |

That's a really excellent question.
First I'd declare August 10th as Island Girl day and make it a National Holiday 
Second I'd declare martial law and sign an executive order making my first term permanent.
Hopefully, Hugo Chavez would congratulate me with a delegation from the Miss Venezuela pageant

The most logical answer is that "she" was a "he" and yes, "he" did catch them from a toilet seat.
I doubt "he" got them in Vegas though, they keep things pretty clean in those parts. It's good for the family business.

Are you naming the child Barack Barney Spence if it's a boy and Nancy Hillary Spence if it's a girl? |
