Hmmmm...... I do like to read mr. Wilson, its just sometimes, all the words fall out of the pages, and start flying, and bugger me if I wasnt nearly killed by a conjunction last night.





How come nobody ever answers these polls when they're in the middle of a Bit of Koontz or Grisham as I know we all have done. Kinda an internet extension. Surely everyone knows that they are a different person online. Its a difference between speech and writing. At least writing always has a chance to be pre-meditated, so we get lots and lots of really smart answers to polls from people who want to be perceived a certain way. I dunno. Everyone notices all the time how people react differently in a chat room than when they're in the "real" world. Is that because everyone on the internet has an agenda of some sort? Or that the internet connects with a mass subconscious depression? Or that the spoken word releases one part of our mind, and the written word another?

If you view the human brain as a limited capacity processor, then we take it that different parts of the brain are stimulated by different combinations of synapses and dendrites, so we would reactly to someone writing to us to tell us to go fuck ourselves, and someone ringing us to tell us to go fuck ourselves.

If you hear someone speak in person you see their heart, how they are, how they think, how they react. If you see someone's post on the internet, there are no lines to read between, either you say something or you don't. and too many people have an agenda to portray themselves in a certain way, because we're all put in a position to act like that at that certain time. If you're feeling sensitive and misunderstood and loathed, you can log on to sensitiveMisunderstoodAndLoathed.com and post away. If you're feeling sensitive and misunderstood and loathed in a bar in limerick, you are probably about to have a stool wrapped around your teeth.
