Indeed, for not withstanding the idiological influence of bus stops in modern contextualised society, it is undoubtily only through the internalisation and apropiation of knowledge; furthering of knowledge and a quest to gain knowledge that the inner devlopment of ultimately the societal goals can itself harbour the fundimental commonality which crosses both social-economic and ethno-political borders with only slight and passing refernce to that of the bus stop and its own significence.

Sorry, but I don't see the connection between the jalapeño booby trapped prophylactics and the bus stop?
Question?
Maria Posted Jul 4, 2008
Take the bus stop as a metaphore. Get a step ahead the surface.
What do you usually do at bus stops?

It is time for you to reconsider the ways you move. The paths you follow.
Question?
2legs - Hey, babe, take a walk on the wild side... Posted Jul 4, 2008
Quite, for the path we all follow through life, as the path we all follow on the information superhighway can itself not render unto that which is as yet unlike an end for its own purpose, often for then it is the path that is the end point not the end point itself.

Ill tell you forward:
The word Dude: Dude means Doubt, duda in the language of us, The Wise Witches of the South.
The word Happy: YOu can never be satisfied with the amount of knowledge you have. So, you are happy with the fact of doubting. Doubt is a door for knowledge.
Peripatitical: As good disciple of Aristotle, you know that way of learning. Aristotle, in his academy used to walk around the gardens with his disciples. They talk, learn and walk at the same time.
Therefore,
YOu need to move to get knowledge.

"YOu need to move to get knowledge."
Which is why me and my Nissan are about to go and travel the paths of the A-Z
Question?
Maria Posted Jul 4, 2008
That's the problem. YOu use a vehicle of your own. Have you consider to move slowler, the bus metafore, and not being the driver but one who is conduced by any other?
YOu also know the`poem Itaca: the important is the way not the destiny of the travel.
Get out of your Nissan and get into different vehicles of knowledge. Nissan is pure solipsism!

"have you consider to move slowler"
I live in London, you don't get much slower than travel by car...
"the important is the way not the destiny of the travel"
Well that's good 'cos I've no idea where I'm going

2legs - Hey, babe, take a walk on the wild side... Posted Jul 4, 2008
Indeed for in the travel the destination is not the hallmark of where we end up but merely a mid-way point to enlightenment
Question?
Maria Posted Jul 4, 2008
Do you want to play a game with me?
It was designed by an anthropologist. just follow the indications and tomorrow or maybe today, depends on how many neurons I have on in a while, I will give you two the answer.
- think/draw these figures:
square, circle, triangle,cross and spiral
- place them in order of preference ( first place or number one for your favourite and number five for the one you like less)

Hey can I play too?
>> ...in order of preference... <<
That's a tall order. (Tall order is a figure of speech meaning large load to be carried such as when someone orders three dozen hats or a half dozen pints of ale.)
First the circle, because it is 'perfect' and complete and seems to be all-encompassing.
But on second thought, one realises the spiral is inevitable when the circle is seen as merely a two dimensional fixation and we fall away spinning out of control into the more natural helix of reality.
The square is neat and balanced and to me represents what a scientist would do when faced with a circle rather than wait for the helix revelations of gravity.
But my own natural favourite is the triangle which has so many implications and applications from love to squaring hippo-potanouses.
Crosses are evil symbols of a quack religion that features torture of its founder and wallows in His blood.
Can we also add a few suggestions like the Pentagon? Not that I care much for pentagons, but I'm sure someone is besotted by rhumboids and of course everyone likes a nice cone from time to time.

Mr Fulton,
of course you can play, anyone can, but you must be patient waiting for the answer. But... please, try to be simple, just say
1: circle ( although you have said triangle is your favourite)
2:...
Question?
2legs - Hey, babe, take a walk on the wild side... Posted Jul 4, 2008
Circle, as it goes around and around and around much like we do when we get dizzy from going round and round and round, and then we fall over and remember the pizza.
Question?
Maria Posted Jul 4, 2008
Circle in many cultures means plenitude, prime, fulfillment.
Placed in posit.1 means a desire of independence and self-reliance.
You need space to develop your personality, to find yourself.
If you get that space and liberty, you will feel loved, if you don´t get that space, you can descends into narcism.

Forgive my complexities. I failed to take into account that you said something about 'anthropologists' being involved. God only knows that behind the fancy name 'anthropology' you will nothing more than 'simple' tourists using scientific grants to fund their fun and games in exoctic locations.
