Beauty is not a term specifically used to describe women, despite what marketing tells you. At the end of the day it is all subjective anyway. Some people think Jaime Pressly is to beautiful to talk to, and I think she has a bit of a horse face.

Beauty is in the eye of the butt holder, and people take offense when "they" aren't attractive to others.

I wear a 12.5 shoe size. Step in them for a minute.

We all have our own perspective built on our own experiences. A dude in a wheel chair will see beauty differently than a track athlete (unless said dude was a former track athlete).

My physical difference from most doesn't exactly force me to change logical perspective, but I do see things in a different way from most. I would say at least fifty times a cute girl was heavily interested in me, and than a friend of hers whispered (he only has one hand) and all interest was gone. It sucks as a girl goes from all in to being repulsed. That's life.

Judge as you will and want, but I do think beauty is not in a place or a thing (at least a non-living thing) but in a person. Neither does beauty have to be pleasurable nor attractive to the masses. Through my years I believe I should have no regrets on my definition of beauty, that "one is as beautiful each day as the last".

Since none of those guys can physically stand for over five minutes I guess that means you will be part of the band?

You should hit up Shakespeare's while in LV. My buddy Charlie Stone put on one heck of a comedy show and the drinks are usually on the house, and the shows are usually free.

Tell him "One hand Luke sent me". Or don't.

You missed my point. You have given beauty a different definition than the generally accepted one and are trying to express it on others. Then you use your definition incorrectly in your closing statement. You do not think beauty is in a place or thing but in a person, but a day can be beautiful? Beautiful means having qualities of beauty.

By your definition, you cannot find a landscape or experience as beautiful, and yet:

Batman on the NES has the KGBeast as a smoking ninja, and batman fights tanks and "boxes", which is just weird. At the same time it is one beautiful and challenging game that barely followed the movie, but was still amazing.

Got mine for KC today!!!! :D I went a little cheaper and got seats in the lower bowl section in the back. I seen back in 2004 at Ozzfest and was in the 15th row, it was a fucking blast. This will be the first time they've had a Missouri show since then. I feel like it has been forever. Unless I go to a show before then it will be my 125th concert.

:( : More lovely eBay updates. They are doubling the hassle free return time from 14 to 30 days if you want to remain "top rated" starting next may. That being said I think the 90 day return requirement for the holiday season is about to kick in so a lot of people will be loosing Top Rated and their 2% fee discount/higher visibility in searches anyways so no biggie :lol: .

If you can see the future while remembering the past, you may just have control of the present.
