    And Rene Descartes was a drunken fart: "I drink, therefore I am." A good friend of mine was a great believer in alcohol and he thought that a very good and a very evil man would do a better job of drinking than he would of sleeping. The same person was said to have been the first drunk.

    Some of us have experienced many events that do not happen while we are asleep – but these occur because at some later time we awaken after some time in bed. Some people have known since childhood that a certain person is awake and they call him or her by his/her birth name or by the initials K (Karen, Karen L., for example). This is one of those "invisible hand signs" of the unconscious mind and we see it on a daily basis. When I think of being awake in the time between sleep and wakefulness I usually think of "my mom" or "my dad," and these names come up frequently in my brain. If we know it is true, what has made our lives so difficult, is that we have had no prior knowledge of this phenomenon; for even someone who knows we are asleep will sometimes refer to me using something like "you were awake for twenty-two minutes, but today was probably too long for you. Well, then, I guess I'm awake now."

    A Florida man was found guilty of assault and battery in connection with a March 2016 fight with two women.

    Daniel Wills entered his plea to charges in Miami-Dade Circuit Court on Wednesday, just hours after he was arrested in San Diego by the San Diego Police Department. He is being held on $500,000 bail for those charges.

    The alleged incident began Sept. 16, 2016, after Mr. Wills and two women entered a restaurant in an upscale neighborhood of San Diego. The women started fighting among themselves and Mr. Wills struck one of them in the face. That's according to the arrest report, which said the woman "felt as if she was being struck with a machete."

    Mr. Wills, according to a police report, walked into the restaurant and, having no other choice, ordered beef brisket. The report said his wife was seated at the restaurant as well and that the two then became "physical."

    In all, three woman told police that they were not friends, but that they were friends, according to the report. Two of the women had been in a fight at the other table the night before and had left before the fight kicked off, the arrest report stated. They asked another woman at the restaurant, whose name was redacted, if what Mr. Wills did might have been a crime, according to the

    A Florida man in Cocoa, Florida, took his daughter to the hospital last week after she fell into a shallow pool and broke her leg. According to police, she didn't have to be resuscitated. According to ABC News, the victim's child did not survive. The child is now a newborn.

    In 2007, the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission conducted a study into the issue of swimming in pool water. The report concluded, in part:

    "In general…we're seeing children who cannot swim or are not fit to swim."

    The report cited an incident in which a 15-year-old girl in South Florida, who was told she had died after accidentally drowning in her pool, was taken to an urgent care center.

    The report stated:

    "The child appears to have a deep vein thrombosis (DVT) because of the amount of drowning that she was subjected to."

    A further study noted that in 2007, a 5-year-old girl in Los Angeles County, California, swam in her family's family pool after her mother went to the emergency room the morning after getting a medical appointment. After the child was checked out, doctors discovered that her body temperature was 121-pounds Fahrenheit (-54 degrees Celsius).

  • A Florida man riding an alligator was mauled while playing a game of hide-and-seek for some unknown reason, according to News 4 New York. The man has been named by Florida's ABC affiliate WSVN.

    The man named as James G. Tambien was riding his Alligator, a hybrid of Alligator, Leopard, and the alligator-in-training, when he was struck by the water tank in a water slide at Davenport Beach in Cape May, according to Channel 5. WAVY reports that Tambien has been "unfortunately, severely injured."

    "[This is] some sickening animal. It's like a real monster," Tambien said in a statement released by the Cape May-Monroe area branch of the Humane Society of the United States.

    "You can't even picture how it could've been like a human," his mother, Mary E., told WAVY of her son's injuries.

    Tambien, who is only 16-year-old at the time of his death, was playing the hide-and-seek game with his father, who was playing with a friend. According to his mother, the pair played up to the water tank with the game going on, causing the game to get out of control.



  • A naked Florida man riding a 20-foot alligator with an M2 machine gun mounted on its back was arrested by Coast Guard officials just hours after allegedly making death threats.

    Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) officials arrested Michael Paul Nogardo, 46, on April 8 at a home in Coconut Creek following a two-day manhunt in Florida.

    He was charged with criminal possession, use of a weapon of mass destruction, carrying a concealed weapon, threatening a family member, possession of a dangerous weapon, possession of ammunition by a felon, battery with a dangerous weapon, carrying a weapon on a restricted premises, and criminal possession of a large capacity ammunition magazine (CAAG).

    "The Coast Guard continued to aggressively pursue this suspect on Tuesday, March 12, 2016. Officers arrested this suspect in the Pinellas County town of Coconut Creek while seeking assistance from local authorities about a suspicious person in the neighborhood, and continue to assist police with their ongoing investigation," said FDLE spokesman Mike Ewing in a statement.

    The incident began Friday around 10 a.m. when a Pinellas County 911 call was received about an alligator in the home in an apparent watery grave, authorities said.

    When the caller asked for "anything suspicious," another caller advised people to get out as the alligator had been "marching down the street" for

    A Florida man flying an aluminum kite during a lightning storm was caught on camera trying to use a helmet as cover, according to local news station WTVJ.

    The kite is called an "alexplorer" and is not as popular as the larger kites used in the Florida Keys. But because the aircraft uses no engine, it's more economical and faster than helicopter-mounted ones. The pilot was able to keep his helmet on while flying over a cliff.

    "I'm not sure if I'm supposed to be smiling or not," the pilot was filmed saying, according to the WTVJ.

    In an image posted online, the man can be seen flying the kite, which is called the "Alec Xplorer," with a harness over his head.

    The kite was created after the United States decided to give up a large aircraft carrier in order to create a small kite-based air traffic control system during the Cold War. It was created in 1972 to handle only the U.S. armed forces (the "United Launch Alliance"). In recent years, the FAA has issued permits for the design.

  • A Florida man was caught redirecting the city's sewage flows to storage tanks on his property when he failed to notice the pipes were moving too slowly. That led him to build a makeshift toilet on his own, where he turned wastewater into potable water.

    The man, whose name has been withheld out of concern for his health, used the toilet after seeing a Facebook post encouraging other residents to install their own contraptions.

    "And I didn't even know I was taking my water into space until someone mentioned it to me yesterday," said the man, who asked not to be identified as he didn't want the city to become aware of his actions.

    The waste-to-energy system was installed on Aug. 9 and allowed to fill for three weeks and then shut down. According to Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission data from 2007, Florida cities and towns spent $8.3 million on wastewater disposal systems in 2007. The state spent just $2.4 million on toilet-repair parts and equipment for sewage-disposal and sanitary-safer systems in 2007. The state has also committed to spending $25 million in 2011 to upgrade municipal sewage systems by the 2015 deadline.

    The city is now seeking state grant funds to purchase the "Pillow Fort" toilet, which would be placed in the city's street. The city plans to install the toilet and pump



  • A Florida man was caught force-feeding methanol to local wildlife with a syringe.

    On May 26, police responded to the 8500 block of South River Avenue in St. Augustine.

    The victim, who was unable to provide his real name, told police he was driving when he noticed a vehicle pulling into a driveway. As the driver backed away, he pushed the truck over the curb and ran for cover.

    Once outside, he saw a man with a dog in the front seat and took the animal toward him. The dog was unable to fight off the man, and the man began pushing a syringe into the man's rectum.

    He grabbed his own gun, opened fire, striking the man in the hip, arm, thigh and groin, police said.

    Officers found the man with multiple gunshot wounds, and he was taken to St. Johns Regional Hospital, where he remained under police protection for 24 hours.

    According to investigators, several other men — one of whom was known to some as "The Big Dog" — also witnessed the incident. The man, a "very intoxicated man," told police he then drove west on Spring Street and saw three groups of men walking the street on the same path. The trio quickly swarmed the man, then jumped on top of him and attempted to force his pants to the ceiling.



  • A naked Florida man was found wandering through Wal-Mart while carrying a live badger between his buttcheeks and eating a bowl of Cheerios.

    A Florida man was charged with "possessing a live badger" and a misdemeanor after allegedly being caught wandering through a Wal-Mart in July

    At that point, the man took off his pants, and proceeded to walk past the shelves. Then he came back, naked from the waist down. He stopped in front of the checkout lane and began eating his Cheerios — all while he was naked.

    Eventually, the man was caught in the store's parking lot in the parking garage and charged with "possessing a live badger."

    The badger's penis was also missing, ABC reports.

    "He walked into Wal-Mart parking lot — just walking by customers. He didn't do anything — didn't look no different than the man seen walking across the parking lot in March. He wasn't wearing pants," said Wal-Mart spokesperson Tom Reiss, according to the Atlanta Journal Constitution. After his initia



  • A Florida man was found with his pet squid after the fish, which lived in the trunk of a trash dumpster, was taken out of the trunk and placed inside a plastic bag, police said.

    Shawn P. Johnson, 27, of Jacksonville, Florida, was charged last week in a lawsuit filed by the Southern Wildlife Federation, a fishing coalition and the nonprofit nonprofit Seafarer's Action group. Johnson is accused of taking the fish from a dumpster and placing it inside a plastic bag.

    The squid was caught by a friend as he and his friend were driving around Jacksonville on the way to a fishing tournament the group was going to attend in Boca Raton, Florida. According to the lawsuit, the group pulled over at a bus stop in the parking lot of a Walmart parking lot, walked by the dumpster and grabbed some of the dead squid, while still inside, which was still attached to the trunk of the truck. The truck then sped off and the owner of the truck told authorities that the truck owner saw a person "in a white shirt" entering the dumpster with a small bag. The truck driver then drove to a convenience store and purchased some food and some bottles, according to the lawsuit.

    A week later, Johnson went to the Jacksonville Police Department (JPD) asking that the department search for his squid that had been left in a plastic bag since it



  • A Florida man was charged with multiple felonies after he stabbed and slashed a woman in his home on Thanksgiving Day.

    According to WESH, 33-year-old Charles Michael Johnson told police he noticed two of his neighbors were acting "affluent" toward him, because he was not wearing seat belts and smoking pot. But when the woman reached for the seatbelt on her vehicle, Johnson allegedly tried to rip it off from her and ripped the seatbelt off from Johnson's body using a kitchen cutting board.

    Police say they found Johnson standing in the doorway with the seatbelt on his stomach and his face bloodied after his victim tried to grab it. The officer reportedly told Johnson he was going to need to have a heart attack, but he claimed on videotape that he did not need a heart attack.

    Then the woman allegedly threw the seatbelt and it flew off toward the fence, hitting one of the officers' horses. The officer pulled his gun out, fired twice and hit Johnson.

    It's not clear why Johnson did not report the incident to authorities at the time it happened. According to the Tampa Bay Times, it's possible Johnson waited too long to call police.

    One neighbor at the home alleged that she heard the officer yell for help, and that officers had arrived as soon as the woman came outside.



  • A Florida man was charged with multiple felonies after allegedly selling a $50,000 Ferrari to a child, police sources said Thursday.

    Michael Estrada was charged under the Florida Manufacturers (Manufacturing and Related) Law on Thursday, said an unidentified law enforcement source, because he ran a car dealership out of his home for at least 18 months in the '90s.

    Estrada was arrested Oct. 17 in a Palm Beach County jail, while authorities investigated a "business transaction" in which he "sold four or five cars to a little girl in exchange for $50,000," according to the incident report.

    The alleged "sale" allegedly happened in Palm Beach County about 9 a.m. Oct. 10, police said. The woman said she knew him as the uncle of her child, according to a police report.

    The child's attorney told investigators he saw her in a car in the shopping center parking lot of Darden in Fort Myers, at that time the largest auto show in the country, with his eyes welling up, according to the Florida Times-Union.

    She claimed to buy some clothes, shoes and sunglasses on Nov. 6 to help support her mother and to help supplement her income, the paper reported. The car was later found locked inside a store in the center lot, police said.



  • Florida man survives lifesaving surgery after he says a nurse asked him to remove his tampon from his vagina

    Risk of developing urinary tract infection

    An Arizona man, now 18 years old, says he survived being treated for several years for a urinary tract infection after he was raped by a co-worker while he was using a tampon.

    The teenager said that after he returned to work he was told he was no longer an employee.

    He decided to share his story after seeing videos about female colleagues dealing with similar symptoms after being raped.

    "The video shows a guy asking if he can pee at his desk and then getting in a public restroom, and while that was happening, a nurse walks by asking him to remove his tampon from his vagina," one anonymous post read.

    "The nurse was talking on her cellphone about having to take someone else's baby into her care, and the man was walking off with his own Tampon. It got to the point where he had to go to the hospital and then he was on a respirator.

    "So, yes, that is what I think happened."

    "I don't have a vagina, so there is nothing left of that. Just pee all over me."



  • Florida man survives lifesaving surgery after shark attack

    A Florida man survived the shark attack that killed him after he jumped into a pool while swimming in the Gulf of Mexico about 40 miles northwest of Miami, Florida.

    The man, identified as John Hodge, was swimming on the South Texas coast when he was attacked by a white shark Tuesday morning.

    Hodge jumped into the pool, where he tried to retrieve water, but soon realized that he was not breathing, Florida Today reported.

    He was pronounced dead at Florida Presbyterian.

    The man's sister, Linda Hodge, told Miami-Dade television station WPLG that he had a few hours before he died to speak in his native language and was able to speak well, making a point to communicate with the pool's owner after his death.

    "He was always happy," Linda Hodge said, in an interview with WPLG. "He was just so happy."

    "He said he was fine and it just came to a point where just the reality that he died, he wasn't able to even hear her say it from his lips."

    On Thursday afternoon, police told CNN the man had not been the only victim. Two women were also swimming in the pool who said that they witnessed the incident, CNN also reported.



  • Florida man survives lifesaving surgery after being stung while cleaning the cat

    A man living in New Hampshire has survived a rare snakebit by two spiders in the state's capital.

    Lily Clements, 55, got the venom while she was cleaning the cat in her upstairs bedroom.

    "I didn't know how bad it was," Lily told the Burlington (New Hampshire) Free Press on Sunday. "There was bits all over everything, including my face!

    "I had to go to the doctor with me first thing."

    Lily's husband, Mark, got the fatal venom while trying to separate two spider eggs.

    Afterward the man called police reporting a poisonous pet as he and his family were out.

    Lily and her husband were flown to hospital in Manchester in a separate incident and were treated before being taken to the hospital later on Sunday.

    According to local authorities, the man is in serious condition following the snakebite.

    The cat was found unharmed at a local dog park.

    "I'm pretty sure the cats are on their way back," Mark Clements, who owns a pet-supply company and works as a plumber in Burlington, told the Burlington Free Press on Monday.

    "We just hope they get better after a few days."



  • Florida man survives lifesaving surgery using 'miracle' oxygen

    The man, whose identity has not been revealed, lost his life thanks to "miracle oxygen," a device made by a company in North Carolina that uses the process of oxygen diffusion to help people breathe.

    Patient Matthew K. Stauffer began choking after he experienced an "unusual" electrical current. A nurse then performed a catheter (a tube containing an oxygen tank inserted into the bloodstream) to drain the oxygen into Stauffer, and administered a blood transfusion. The oxygen began working again, and K. Stauffer's condition improved enough to begin breathing on his own again.

    Doctors saved K.'s life by delivering a lifesaving medical kit and oxygen. "I never saw these devices the way they were going to be used," said Dr. James M. Kollock, a team leader of the hospital and senior researcher at the Institute for Translational Medicine (ITEM), a research group devoted to medical development.

    Patients have a few options in dealing with an accidental or traumatic death by heart attacks or drowning, Dr. Stauffer said. A person using a self-contained chest oxygen unit or oxygen tank should be given the benefit of a heart tube and oxygen tank, then instructed to use the equipment to administer lifesaving oxygen.

  • One fine morning in the middle of the night, two dead boys got up to fight. Back to back, they faced each other. They drew their swords, and shot one another. And then they drew their swords again. One shot; and then another. But then, one shot; and then another. The boy on the right was knocked out. He fell into a ditch beside them. Then, the old man who ran over to save him began to beat his head with a stick. When that failed, the old man put his sword in his mouth and said, "Go and put this thing back!" Then the second shot killed her. A great crowd gathered, and the boy on his left died. "She is a saint," said one. It was not to be.

    It was not the saintliness they lacked. The saintliness that seemed to be lacking in the village was that of the children.

    "A village is a group of people. A village is a community that keeps their children well, fed even, sheltered even, not beaten, not shot at, not killed by the people who care for them, but fed even, and sheltered even, not beaten, not shot at, not murdered by their neighbors."

    There is one point at which it could end up.

    If someone wants to go the extra mile. (But isn't sure what it would take, anyway.)

    Let's say, imagine someone tells us to create a "reality cube" (or, perhaps, a "dome") in six months.

    If the user does the work of turning something that doesn't exist into a reality cube in six months, the cube will stay true, the user won't move to a different reality, and the cube will also keep their life (and its history) in it (if it's a reality cube.)

    At that point, the Cube will say to us that:

    Our life has been written on the wall. We had to do the work of turning something that exists not to live.

    You can't die from lack of living.

    From the front page (dead to @boomzilla and his alts):

    Back in the late 60s, early 70s, “Fourth Generation Languages” (4GL) seemed like the future. “Write programs without a programmer!” they promised. “It’s a specification-based language, you just tell the computer what should happen, and it figures out how to do it!” 4GL was an effort to write a language that we were convinced would revolutionize programming. “We are not here to tell anyone what to do” — Richard Stallman I thought of the language as a design pattern. It worked best, especially when it was implemented from scratch. The design pattern was for computers to implement language programs using very specific code paths, without the programmers needing any help and without requiring the code to be stored in a file. There were a few other things I liked about the fourth generation language, but these were the primary features. In practice people used it a lot. 4GL is written in two primary ways. The first is as an abstract language like C. It is just a collection of small, self-explanatory functions: you call a particular method of the system and it gets executed, and then it's gone. When you write in 4GL, you write a single function, and so the function is invoked every time someone wants to write the answer to a certain question. When there's

    I got some more info about the FF7 remake:

    Final Fantasy VII: Memories of Celceta is a remake of the original Final Fantasy VII - Chrono Limit game (1997). Square's first foray in a long-running strategy series was based on a concept that was not in any way unique.[1]The game does contain numerous references to previous Final Fantasy games - such as characters, locations, and game elements. The first two maps are completely unique compared to the other map types, whereas the Final Fantasy Battle Tower map is simply more difficult than the regular maps as they're much more accessible. The game's soundtrack includes classic tracks "The Battle of Bionis", "Ravager" and "Prophecy Of Doom", the latter of which is an all-time classic. In the second story, it's revealed that the main antagonists are named Serenity and Bahamut respectively. Some of the Final Fantasy VII characters are also present as playable characters.

    Looks like the remake will be massively changed from the original, dunno if that will please the die-hard fans.

  • AAAAAAAAAHHHHH. This show doesn't have the slightest idea what it's doing. But that would've been fine if it didn't so damn know its way around the town, which is pretty much exactly how it's depicted. The characters are bland, generic and repetitive, which I guess should be no problem for a show that only needs to give you information. And why are these characters supposed to be the main characters? It seems like the creators can get away with this, but I just can't get it. I think they could've probably had the characters as a couple if they would've been allowed to make their own romantic relationships, which are what you really need to make a romance show for. But we get some exposition about the characters, but none of it even occurs! This show is a mess. This show is worse than when this show was first released, and I'm honestly starting to believe that's when the series really took off. It's such a boring and boring show that a new fan of the series will always be disappointed, but it's also a show that is still very enjoyable, especially if you're just watching it for the information, without trying to understand as much. I'm really disappointed in this show, but at least everything is still pretty entertaining as long as you ignore the characters. If you're even slightly attached to this show, you're not missing anything,

    Well, learned something about nutrition today.

    So when I went to the doctor for a checkup, she replaced my pacemaker — and a tiny tiny thing that was in the wrong spot — with a pacemaker that wasn't broken in two.

    "And she was able to repair that issue," says Dr. Steven Schaufele. "She could do that because she's a woman."

    Dr. Schaufele is a gynecologist and breast cancer specialist who helped my mom as an emergency patient last year. He told me the following — and that's more than any of us can say on behalf of my mom.

    1. I don't need to eat out every week to make up my lack of food in my belly.

    If you eat the right foods regularly, your body will figure out what to do with the excess sugar and fat, and it can handle it without getting hungry.

    "The body doesn't look like a sugar cave, and even if an individual's sugar intake gets out of control, they still maintain a constant calorie, fat and carbohydrate intake," says Schaufele.

    Despite my name, I am no applesauce expert, but if your applesauce is able to be cut, it is probably not safe to consume.

    Apples contain enzymes that trigger a gradual thickening of the sauce (if it isn't overcooked). Cutting it isn't impossible.

    Peeling the applesauce though…

    I can remember my grandmother making applesauce with at least some pieces of apple not being peeled before cooking and mashing. With red-skinned apples, e.g., Rome Beauty (which, for some reason, seem to be almost impossible to find in grocery stores any more), the skin gives the applesauce a nice reddish color, and you're not throwing away the nutrients in the skin.



  • Boomzilla did a lot to promote and help support the game. He even got to meet with developer Jonty "Budgie" Lyle at the PAX East convention. As a bonus, Capcom announced that the game was coming to both the Wii U and 3DS on August 24th! So there! If you haven't played this great shooter yet, I'd encourage you to give it a go. Or, you can enjoy it on PC, Mac, Linux (sorry Linux and Mac users!) and Android. If you really want to play it, the PS4 version can be pre-ordered through PSN!

    Caffeine is a central nervous system (CNS) stimulant of the methylxanthine class. This stimulant is not thought to cause brain damage due to its high content of caffeine (the major ingredient in coffee beans).

    I swear, I uninstalled it. Was trying to install the 1.5.1, as it was only installed as version 1.5.1, but I think I tried this and the update had failed. That's it. All versions of Ubuntu before 1.5.1 are fine. The only issue is 4.8.2. And of course, the only issue with 4.8.2 is with the default Ubuntu 16.04 64-bit distro. In other words, if you have the new 4.8.2 installation method, you don't really need to be interested in the details. If you have the older 4.7.4 install option, you might want to try that out first. If you still see error messages after uninstalling a package, you can't do anything about it. Just don't do it. But what can you do anyway? The answer is this: if you have another option available, I'd recommend doing more testing. See what I mean? And, if you still see error messages after uninstalling a package, what can you do? The answer is simple: the same thing everyone does. You can't do anything unless it works. If there's some incompatibility in some particular package that's preventing you from adding it (not always with Ubuntu, but with most distros), just make a note of

    Well, can't really argue with the logic...

    SMS (Short Message Service) is specified by the ETSI (standards GSM 03.401 and 03.382 ). It can contain up to 160 characters, where each character is written according to the length of the message. The maximum size in the SMS protocol is 16 characters, and messages can contain up to 8 letters, numbers, and special characters (the special characters are used in message headers). An SMS message can contain a number (0 to 9999) of dots or dashes (0.0000000001, 0.01 to 1.000000000, 0.00000001, 1,001 to 9999) of characters. The characters in the SMS message must consist of only alphanumeric characters (except for dots, which must consist only of hexadecimal characters), special characters, and characters whose special properties are specified using Unicode.

    SMS encoded as morse-code would actually be easier than PDU semi-decimal-octets.

    Get off my lawn! I'm gonna shoot you in the face.

    Then it got down right weird, in a bad way. NSFW:

    C'mon now. You can say that right now! You're being too friendly. Don't push me! Now, how do I get off? I'd rather have more control over this than that. I can always tell the girl. I'll tell her that you're the bad guy if she gets any hurt. She won't feel all that bad. I don't know where you get these ideas, but I sure don't need any convincing! I'm just going to grab her by the elbow and shove her down this way. You can grab me behind her too but remember I've already gone past her. I'm not going to hit her again so she won't be able to say that she got hurt either. If you think you can pull it off, good, you can do it. It's fine! It's fine to have fun. Not that I like it when you do. I'm just going to stick with my mission. Aha! I thought you weren't going to leave me. But now you're really trying to get under my skin! Now take it easy, you're just doing this because you love me. I could kill you if I have

    IT GETS WEIRDER.

    Where is my belt onion? I thought you wanted to eat it." The woman's voice was muffled by the chains, but she could still see she was wearing her bra. Her bra was very dark.

    NSFW

    The two women were tied to two separate metal chair stands, one was in the same position as the other, but the woman's bra was larger, as was that of the other woman.

    The man then sat atop the chair to face forward. "Hurry, I want to show you how much I love you." He looked up at the woman.

    "How many are you?" the woman asked. It was the woman's voice that she had been trying to suppress the moment the chains broke loose. The woman sat up from her chair, staring at him in the face.

    The man said with an air of superiority, "You know how many men I have fucked?" the woman said "Do you want me to tell you?"

    "No" he said.

    "Good. Take off your underwear" she ordered. The man took off his pants, removing his boxers and tights. He then took off his boxers, and tied the back of them with the large metal chain they placed between his legs.

    "Hurry up" he said.

    "Yes," she said as she watched the woman put on her bra again

    You're in a desert walking along in the sand when all of the sudden you look down, and you see a tortoise. It's crawling toward you. You reach down, you flip the tortoise over on its back. The tortoise lays on its back, its belly baking in the hot sun, beating its legs trying to turn itself over, but it can't, not without your help. But you're not helping. Why is that? Because you're a god. You're a god of your own creation.

    They're not stupid about the behavior they're doing. Tortillas have been living on land for 40 million years, and they're doing it very intelligently. They're actually playing the evolutionary game. They're really building a very complicated complex that is built for very unique political reasons. So a tortoise does something pretty clever when they come into the place, but you understand why they'd think it would make sense that they'd do

Why isn't you helping? And there's just one answer to that question, the tortoise's way of thinking."

    The answer is not obvious to humans, but tortoises live in the rain forests, and we are the reason why the rain forest is so warm. If we aren't helping the tortoises, they'll starve, which would result in the tortoise and humans becoming one giant insect.

    What makes these guys a big deal?

    According to "The Tortoise's Mind," the question "What Makes Tortoises Human?" has been asked to all of the major scientific societies.

    One of them asked, "When a turd grows into a tortoise?" (See sidebar to "Is your life like a tortoise's life?": "How Do You Live Your Life?" -- read the full article.)
