On who is doing the philosophization! I think it was Kafka who worked out the basic premise of The Philosophy of Dogs..... "if one has meat in his jaws, all problems are solved for the time being".

Works better for me with shrimp, but I think there is something to this.

Wouldn't that be the same person who's experiencing existence, whether it be illusory or not?

But it's true... as long as you're satisfied, what else matters for now?

Leads neatly on to my own great philosophical question:

If a tree falls in the forest and squashes a mime, does anybody care?
Yes --- if the tree was cut down by loggers --- environmentalists would have a fit.

See those 10 digits? Start counting backwards with either hand.

10, 9, 8, 7, 6 + the 5 on your other hand = 6 + 5 = 11.
Cute.

You got me with that one.

:thumbsup:
Alright! Score one for the "Home" team ;) :clap:

Does this mean my dogs would have been a evolutionary step (no balls, so now they can't be). They seem to value attention over food. Well one finds them equal and the other values attention more. This is a survival trait in a world with people as in the long run it means more food!

And yes neither of the dogs will bite me.

Please answer this question with discrete numbers -- and please don't say ten.

How many fingers (thumbs included) does the average human have?

7^(3/2)

Well, the numbers are discrete, what they come out to be may not be...

Creating a QV thread would accomplish the exact same thing without being obnoxious.
That would be like building a bridge without being a construction engineer.
