Sounds like you're back to feeling like yourself again.

I'm ignoring everything that's casuing me stress.

how do you do that!
i can never do that.
pooh.

Ignoring everything causes stress too, but it's only one source. ;-)

*snort*

It's a fun meme. You should post it too.

You is one fuuunnnyyy guy.

That's not a question.

Are you a very fuunny guy?

He won't answer you now. *L*

That's better.

Don't answer these questions:

1. Is that what you're going to wear on your wedding day?
2. Are you going to vote for Dubya in November?
3. Is plumbing your favorite pasttime?

Neener neener.

:-)

Hey, baby, looks like you've got some pipes I can clear out!

Is that the Borg Queen from the Voyager series? It doesn't look quite like Alice Krige from the movie.

I'm a total Star Trek geek. Yeah, that's the one. I like Alice better, though. But I thought the green lighting was neat, so I snagged this one for an icon.

I luuved Alice.

Hmmm. Difficult questions to ignore.

What is your name?

What is your quest?

What is the air-speed velocity of an unladen swallow?

Blue! No, ye-

Heh heh heh. Now that's funny!

Why should I?

Who cares?

What's it to you?

If I ask you four questions, will that make a difference?

Something, something, something, yes.

Suddenly I'm humming Something.

You can't have Something for nothing. Now you must have "We built this City on Rock and Roll" stuck in your head.

Nononononooooooooooo!

I'm rebelling by now humming Nothing From Nothing Leaves Nothing.

Okay, you *can* trade Something for Nothing.

Marconi plays the mamba. Listen to the radio...

(I'm so proud I know those lyrics. *sarcasm*)

If I ask you to play the Questions Game with me, will you?

That's one.

how about i don't ask three questions and you do answer them?

Blue.
42.
Because the shoter wavelengths are scattered while the longer wavelengths continue on their original paths.

and the answers are...

*taps envelope to forehead*

what color boxers am i wearing?
how many times have i worn them?
why are they blue?

I won't answer those either.

1. I think I remember Cyn saying you were tall...and she noticed that about you when she first met you. How tall are you Kev?
2. Nearsighted or farsight?
3. What did you want to be 'when you grew up'..as a kid?

Yes.
Maybe.
No.

What happened before the beginning of the universe?
Assuming there's a God, why does he let ikkle fwuffy kittens get drowned in sacks when great hulking men with tatoos throw them into the canal?
How many beans make five?

1. Good question.
2. Also a good question.
3. Bad question.

Is a judgement of the value of a question a form of answer?
Does the second answer being effectively the same as the first mean there is only one answer, or are there really two?
Who wrote Beethoven's Fifth Symphony?

1. How can you have both?
2. The number of answers in not important.
3. Why do you ask?

I don't understand. How can you have both what?

Okay, I'll answer this one. For me to say "good question," means one of two things. Either that I think you came up with a question of high quality, or that I don't know the answer. Actually, the two are related, but unless you know the answer, you may have difficulty ascertaining the quality of the question (unless you feel that any question to which you don't know the answer is a good one).

Which brings us back to your current question. I read it and responded rather quickly, so I didn't get it quite right, which resulted in your confusion. You asked, "Is a judgement of the value of a question a form of answer?" If I were using the phrase "good question" as an indication that I did not know the answer, I would have been answering your question. But I was, in fact, offering my opinion of the question. I don't believe I could be using the phrase to stand for both types of answer. Does that make sense?

Now, having said all that, and thought some more, I feel that one could, in fact, feel that a question for which he did not have an answer was a good question.

A good and thought provoking answer, but that doesn't change the fact that I made you answer. I win!

He said, 'You're under arrest. You have the right to remain silent. Do you wish to retain that right?' And I thought, 'Oooh, a paradox!'

1) If X-o'clock is what time it is when an elephant sits on your watch, and Y-o'clock is the time that the watchmaker's shop closes, and you've got to get back home before Z-o'clock to watch Supermarket Sweep, when must you leave your house if the watchmaker's shop is three hundred miles away?

2) If L is the number of people that think that Alex Trebek is a complete loser, and M is the number of people who thought that Alex Trebek was a complete loser before he shaved his mustache, and D is the percentage of the American population that thinks that Jessica Simpson must have profound dementia secondary to tertiary syphilis, then how much money would Jessica Simpson lose for her charity if she were to compete on Celebrity Jeopardy?

3) If a stitch in time saves nine, and n is the number of chickens that you count before they're hatched, and cheese is a tasty dairy treat, then how many are saved by 6n stitches to the power of cheese?
