Arts & Humanities - 16 December 2006

I'm not asking about the impact your family and friends have on you...that's a given. But, think about this...someone asks you for a quarter so they can use a pay phone...you think nothing of it...hand it to them...and they are able to call the love of their life and apologize for a misdeed or something and it totally changes the course of their life...all because you were right there with a
quarter.

How often do you think that happens? And do you know if it has ever happened to you?

I mean, some people--I am one of them--that cannnot sing,dance or are good at sports. Their grades aren't good and there is nothing they are the best or at least very good at it. I ask this question because i was taught that everyone has secret talents but how true is that?

I've just finished reading a book called The Singularity Is Near which predicts the introduction of ideas pertaining to immortality through technology into mainstream society around the same time. This coincidence is odd and leaves me asking whether or not the fascination with this date is in anyway fudged or not based on scientific studies of the Mayans.

I wrote a 150 page story about vampires, where there's a war between the psy-vamps and the bloodsucker-vamps, does it seem interesting? Also...it's about a boy who goes through the stages of becoming a vampire
