Pay no attention to the man behind the green curtain…
November 29th, 2005Miscellaneous Ramblings today… Oz says that I am Buttercup. Cute, but with an attitude. He also says that it’s the small world factor that is key to just about everything and that I would be a fool (ok, ok, he said "dumb ass") to not utilize that in my pursuit of… well… anything, really.
I think I’m becoming more trusting as I get older. I’m a little concerned that I might be a little bit reckless in doing so. I’m not afraid of those I’ve decided to trust (earlier than usual, for me), but at the same time, how well do I know them to allow them as much of a glimpse as I have? The question sits in the back of my head.
I have been asking for this forever. The last time a guy from Time Warner came to my house to try to convince me that I wanted cable (and should go ahead and ditch broadband and Netflix so as to be able to afford it), I told him I would get cable when they offered it to be a la carte. I guess we’ll see what happens.
Read this article about using eye movements to detect lies. I think I’m going to start paying attention to whether or not the premise is sound, though not with the intention of actually detecting lies, per se. Also of interest is the internally-linked article, How to Detect Lies. I’m pretty good at reading body language, this is just another extension of that… whether I want to know or not, I like furthering my pursuit of knowledge.
I got spam from a "Conception Mcclellan". It makes me wonder if anyone out there has *actually* named their child "Conception". I bet someone has, though… probably way more people than I would want to know about.
Finally… Huh. I honestly had no idea, but right on.
*shrug*
