I believe in God, the human mind, logic & science. I wonder, though: Do you think it is vain to think we are/will become so all-knowing as to officially rule out any other greater force/existence? I think too often disbelievers think of God as merely a miracle-worker. It's tough to believe in miracles with all the science to prove how they happened... I think of God on a much, much smaller & far more powerful level. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

I suppose by those very simplistic definitions one might call me a theistic. I believe in God; and I believe in evolution. They are not mutually exclusive, imo. Being that neither belief is simplistic, I wouldn't even call myself a theistic. I don't debate this subject, however. I might ask a question here and there, but that's as much as you'll get out of me. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

I was waiting to see if someone would finally say this before I reluctantly hit the "Reply" button. Egg-xactly. I never had to say the pledge in college. I'm quite certain it wasn't officially banned, though. The last time I probably said the pledge was in elementary school; even then it was optional to say "Under God" or not. I don't believe my middle or high schools said it, either. And I could be mistaken, but I think they provided a flag service before school every morning. They'd raise the flag and I think those who attended in the mornings would gather around and say the pledge or sing the national athem or something. I was always of the frame of mind--call me spoiled--that I didn't need to show up to school 15 minutes earlier to pledge my allegiance to the flag. I love my country. I support it and "pledge my allegiance" to it in many other ways. I believe in God, so frankly the phrase doesn't bother me in that regard. I also disagree with pushing one's beliefs on another. I don't think that's what is happening with the pledge, however. I think the phrase is more out of respect for many of the founding fathers who did believe in God and who came here for the freedom to practice their own religious beliefs. I think it's more out of respect for them and what they were fighting for--freedom to all to practice whatever religious belief (even the absence thereof), and a big etc. Say it. Don't say it. But ban it? Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

I don't believe in coincidence... What do you need four low-current, 12-volt relays for? I'm a curious cat. Meow. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

I like to work the bootie. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

Hey, they have DZ.com up here. They freakin' LOVE you guys. Big hit. It's like their Jerry Springer. Edit: Oh, you mean the oysters. It's an "R" month, and I haven't had them in a year! Spank me? Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

Oh, P.S. There'll be oysters there, too! I LOVE oysters. Hey, I didn't buy them/supply them. It would be cruel to let them go to waste. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

Maintain. Maintain. It's an art. I'll teach you. I'm perfectly, ever so slightly, buzzed at the moment. Soon, when my hot, sexy date (Billy, of course

It was funny 'cause I called you sexy & unsexy in the same statement. Damn, I'm good. Rats, here they come.... Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

I was hiding under Lindercles. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

You knew one of the old guys' names right off the bat? Dude, you totally lost like a bazallion sexy points. Excellent plan. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

You will be safe. I'm just posting to say goodbye. I just got this as an e-mail from a friend. It's so stupid; I simply had to pass it on. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

A guy that went to my high school drove that exact car. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

Oops. You beat me to the punchline. This morning a gentleman--older, scruffy, dressed in a holey T-shirt and ragged jeans covered in paint--ordered, and I kid you not: A six-shot grande House Blend, please. I've never even heard of such a thing. They filled 1/3 of the cup with House Blend coffee and added six shots of espresso. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

Oh, contraire. We were talking about Starbucks. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

Rats. This has been fun. I've got to drum. Cello, bella.

I don't much care to play to a metronome. The frequency of vibration depends on the flow through the instrument. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

You mean my brass? I would love that! Guitar'n over here. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

And I thought you preferred a french horn. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.
