Random Thoughts or Whatever

A friend of mine's phone always replaced "f" with "d" when she typed "f***“. So, a text message from her, if she didn't catch it would read "What the duck?"
An unwelcome example of forced upon "Nanny-izing" and the user not proof reading and correcting before sending !

I can understand the Nanny factor on a public based internet forum site such as A/K, but texting, now that appears to be reading one`s typed communications !
I would deeply examine my Smart Ass phone`s, if I foolishly owned such a device, settings and disable/remove that probing/snooping "Feature" !
 
"I think, therefore I am."
... I think.

Of course you are my bright little star. I've miles and miles of files. Pretty files of your forefather's fruit. And now to suit our great computer, you're magnetic ink!

I'm more than that, at least I think I must be.

There you go man keep as cool as you can. It riles them to believe that you perceive the web they weave and keep on thinking free.

Right on!

"Edge" was one of the ultimate artists, who not only wrote lyrics, but was a proficient poet. I've read some of this works, and his use of language was beyond belief.

I remember someone in the band thought of him as being the "backbone" of the "Moody Blues".

And he certainly did make you think of who you were, and we might be going.

What is the house of not being? Is it necessary to study Shakespeare and Loa Tsu, look for a convergence and then arrive at conclusion? :idea:
I think it's though an interesting question, it is ultimately moot. The point of Heidegger's quote is that all existences (anything, all things, all beings) occurs only in and through language. To be is to be in language. It might be easy to try and draw an inverse relationship of "not-being" with not being in language...but you really can't get very far...can you?

Cheers!
