Nick, that is HiLArioUs!!!
Unfortunately the reality may not be so funny. Back in my college days there was a period of time when I was perpetually stoned in the dorm room down the hall with a bunch of other people who were perpetually stoned, too. The roomie hosts for pot heaven decided that they would smuggle in a pet hamster. Of course it wasn't long before someone blew smoke into the plastic cage where Hammy the Hamster lived, and we all thought that was kinda great. You know, haha, that hamster is going to be sooooo stoned, dude. Haha!!
Of course there were some girls (and even boys) that thought it was a bad idea and mean.
And it was. Hammy went to sleep shortly thereafter and didn't wake up.
To look on the bright side, at least he passed on with an open mind.

Re: Breaking the Sound Barrier
Pathless,
...how did you ever graduate from college?!
"...there were some girls (and even boys) that thought it was a bad idea and mean."
--> It is good to know that cosmic consciousness can thrive and grow even in such an atmosphere.

Who said I graduated?
No, I did. I don't remember the details, though.
Funny thing about education. The time I spent in classrooms I don't tend to remember as education, as mind nurturing. I remember frantically scribbling notes, being anxious as hell, and memorizing rules and factoids.
English and art classes were different sometimes. But even then I spent a good deal of time doodling in the margins.
What was it that Einstein said? "Imagination is more important than knowledge," or something to that effect. He was a smart guy, although sometimes he'd be all preoccupied with thinking and forget to put on pants. Oh and that hair! Lovely.
I now declare this thread a free for all. The topic described in the subject line is officially dead! Or is it? I don't hear anything, do you?

Ciel,
That's a nice avatar. Is that a photo out the window of a 747?

Re: Breaking the Sound Barrier
Laurie, when you take your trip out to Cali, you might want to get the name of the pilot. Especially if the girls are going.
InPeace,
InLove

Lesson learned, though: never open the door on a plane. Me and the drink cart both went ---> whoosh!!!
The drink cart wasn't quite as lucky as I was. And then, when we landed, the pilot was so mad at me!

Ciel,
Yes, that was my reflection. I look just like a nine-year-old boy.

No, no, not at all. Actually, here is the photo I took of my reflection.

"Laurie, when you take your trip out to Cali, you might want to get the name of the pilot."
(Hmmm, I wonder if I am giving these people the wrong idea about my piloting skills....) Hey, did I tell you guys about the time I jumped on the reverse thrusters too hard?
