Well it is too upbeat for me. I mean wheres the grim? Wheres the darkside? Where can I just retreat to the shadows? It just doesnt speak pessimism to me.

Heh. No, its a good thing to think about. Things that get lost. While I dont agree with 100% of the things listed, I agree, it is a good thing to keep in mind, and in times of trouble, if one believes all of those things, all they need to do is realize they believe that stuff and turn to it.

But as a pessimist, through and through, its something I tend to bypass.

Well, ****! Another person coming in here with good intentions. Don't they ever learn? E-mails like the one above always make me feel bad about myself. I am not loving. I am not giving. I am the same selfish hypocritical piece of **** like everyone else on this earth.


(note: lack of sleep for several days combined with some bad days result in a bad mood)

testify! the 'greatest joy' category is so obviously meant to be 'making other people feel overshadowed by my selfless good humor and kindness'

If the greatest joy was really giving then I would be stinking rich.

The greatest Joy.........................................Seeing the Red Sox win the World Series

The greatest loss....................................... Seeing the Yankees win the World Series

The most satisfying work............................Working for ESPN

The ugliest personality trait..........................Not being a NASCAR fan

The most endangered species......................Something thats died a lot?

Our greatest natural resource.......................The Remote Control

The greatest "shot in the arm".......................Seeing Jeremy Mayfield win the Daytona 500

The greatest problem to overcome...............Watching the Red Sox lose every season and still wake up without a cold sweat

The most effective sleeping pill.....................Watching a soccer game.....(*yawn*)

The most crippling failure disease.................Being a fan of Today's music

The most powerful force in life.....................God....of course

The most dangerous pariah..........................Yankee Fans

The world's most incredible computer..........The one that can calculate the stats for any sport in any given amount of time

The worst thing to be without......................New Wave music!

The deadliest weapon................................ Saying negative things about someone

The two most power-filled words................. Yankees Suck!

The greatest asset........................................ Being Religious

The most worthless emotion......................... Hate

The most beautiful attire...............................New England Patriots Hat

*Note that if I was being 100% serious, dealing with religions and whatnot, it would not be interesting to read, so I decided to only be somewhat serious, in a lighthearted mannor. Yes, I WAS serious on a couple of the things there (dealing with religion and hate-but most of the other stuff is just light hearted). There ARE more important things then New Wave and Sports....but not many things. *
