Re: vote for your fav subjects

Really? I had no idea. I love Astronomy so much.
I like art. It's a bit illogical, but half the time I don't know what I'm doing anyway.

Re: vote for your fav subjects

You meant that as a generalisation of my existence, didn't you.
It's slightly logical, with scale & proportion.
But yeah, that's why I have trouble annotating. I can't write what I don't know. Things just happen.

No, I was agreeing with your conclusion that half the time you are totally bazonked and have no clue as to where or why you are.

Yeah... isn't that what you usually do? You respond with something random that makes me giggle a bit.
But don't ask me, it's your turn.

"Too much math"? I'd never thought I'd hear that from you, bobby.

Btw, Richard Feynman is my new hero.

You can't expect me to know everything he ever said. & it was difficult for me to get knowledge about him until recently.
