If you leave your wallet on the floor (or any other careless place) it will always be empty.
The second thing ridiculous thing that I believe to be true is that there is good in everybody. Every damn day I find people with no redeeming qualities whatsoever, but I still believe that everybody has some good in them somewhere. I kinda have to, though, to get through the day. |

Not in any way that benefits me, but if I happen to recall a particularly embarassing moment in my history in any great detail, without fail someone connected to that memory will bring up said embarassment in the near future. |

Woman *are*, by and large, born with the capacity to, as you say, read between the lines. It's part of your evolutionary makeup that came from the necessity of ensuring that chosen mates would continue to provide for offspring produced by them. |

4: Ever read "The Rotifers" by Isaac Asimov? I wonder if he may have done (or known someone who did) the same thing. Personally, I was too busy pinning the little bugs to boards to notice their tiny little voices... |
