I have this cartoon in mind where everyone is wearing a keyboard strapped to their chest and a blindfold at a party with all the people walking around with their fingers stuck out. There's only two ways this can go. 1] Everyone blames everyone else for pushing their buttons, lashes out in anger...pushing more buttons. 2] There comes a realization of where the buttons are, what they do and who they belong to.
Now maybe we can't eliminate buttons, but we certainly can preprogram them, be aware of how they're wired, not wear them as the first thing that enters a room [like a penis and titties? ;-)] To digress...There's a certian self defeating illogic that comes when people decide to end an otherwise pleaant relationship because various protrusions were temporarily pressed against depressions other than the expected ones. You left for a moment, so now you have to leave forever? What scared me is that you 'can' leave, so now you must? I love that cat soooo much, that if I ever catch it being petted somewhere else, even for a moment, I'll kill it. [There's something about cats that makes them very hard to herd. But they are so lovable. It's pretty obvious that they like you and hang around because THEY want to. ..and, the harder you herd them, the less you'll see of them] Coming back...not that people can't push their own buttons and blame you. In effect, trying to make you wear their keyboard so they can complain loudly about how you type. Control me! No..not like that! Do it right! If you don't know how, I'm sure not going to tell you. [meaning, I don't know how either, but that's your fault] Ode At 09:38 AM 8/23/2004 -0700, you wrote: >I have found that there are distinctly a few 'professional' con artists. >Most are as you describe "Con people aren't always evil.
