    That would explain why it's called "than one and only dictionary".

    I do anything which allows me to be creative - apart from plotting, dreaming, etc, I spend alot of time thinking. I find that if i am in the proper state of mind I can pass several hours trying to figure out how it would feel to fly, what is outside our solor system, what I should eat for lunch, what book I should read while eating, or some other relativly aimless exerise. If I'm in a more productive mood, I usually design castles and/or worlds, draw, or write.

    That sounds a lot like stuff I do if I'm bored. As corny as itsounds, I spend a decent amount of time meditating. Sometimes, I get so wrapped up in it, I feel like I'm flying, and I forget that I have chores to do. In lieu of that, I tend to draw stuff, invent things, or draw plans for inventions.

    You forgot "...and get on internet forums and try to sound older and more intelligent than I really am."

    I hope I'm wrong, but you strike me as something of a poser.

    I don't spend much time thinking or anything ( I do things, then think about them). But sometimes, just sometimes I think about death and what's it like.
    Then when I scare the shit out of me I stop.

    Wanted to try meditating, but when I mean to get to it, it just feels dumb and give up.

    Meditating is the worst way to spend time.
    Thinking is the second. But you sometimes need it.

    Aw, rosie... ;) sweet and sexy, what more can I ask for?

    But you'd still go with a male intelligence-mate, right?

    (What's an intelligence-mate, by the way?)

    Can you believe that sometimes you have to pay for meditating?

    Intelligence-mate is person with whom I can discuss most of thoughts (for this he must be intelligent enough) and... e... how to say it... "make philosophy". Well, there's already a club of philosophers (both M and F, Bunny;) ). As you can expect, we arrange meetings in our favorite coffee-house. *take empanados (you, Spanish, must know what is it, I hope), coffee and "lay a thought on a table of general discussion"*.

    Methinks he ment an inteligent male. Thus he can have educated dicussions about weather liverpool or Manchester is better. It is liverpool by the way. Instead of having to resort to fistfights wich is the usuall way when two football fans from different clubs meet.

    I thought the same. But the hyphen confused me.

They were all talking about chairs that were not really chairs but the illusionn of chairs. They were really hung upp inn the chair question. Bahhh never again. And they were all weird.

    Philosophers always are... and meditating is not a waste of time, it's a very valid method of balancing yourself... I tend to get lost meditating, which is why I do it right before I go to bed, that way I can just pass out afterwards.

    You are not typing on a keyboard, but an illusion of a keyboard, that which your mind tells you is a keyboard because it cannot see beyond what is presented to it. There is no real truth your brain can comprehend. Except pizza. Pizza pretty much is what it is.

    Yes, well, truth be told, I'm only 19 years old, and I've always had a problem with people judging me according to how I carry myself and how I speak; in this case, type. I understand your point of view, but rest assured, you're wrong.
