I Don't Understand Why . . . . ?
May 13th 2008 23:58
Stonehenge, the pyramids, the thought processes of men, the ritual bonding of women . . . all mysteries to many - hence the fairly open ended question most of us either hear or mouth to ourselves daily - "I Don't Understand Why . . . . ?
Personally I don't understand why wearing your jeans down around your knees these days is cool.
I don't understand why people feel the necessity to print 12 noon on invitations - afterall what other time of the day is noon?
I don't understand why young girls wear makeup to look older, old women wear it to look younger. Is there a perfect age?
I don't understand why women's gossip magazines are always are covered with "SCANDAL", "SEXY", "HOT" or "RAUNCHY" and "DIET" - yet we continue to buy them - then complain about the media.
I don't understand why leaving the toilet seat up is such a crime.
So what is it that you don't understand?

What is the point?
You don't talk to them in reality, why talk to them online?

I was never on the debate team, but I'm pretty sure the way to win a good debate is to know both sides of the arguement so that you know what to expect as your next comeback. It's kind of hard to win when all you can say is the same one point over and over again.

Experiments conducted by Farizio Beneditti of University of Turin in Italy conducted this following experiment. Several times a day, for several days, he induced pain in patients. He controled the pain with morphine until the final day of the experiment, when he replaced the morphine with saline solution. Guess what? The saline took the pain away.
Then Benedetti added a final twist by adding naloxone, a drug that blocks the effects of morphine, to the saline. The shocking result? The pain-relieving power of saline solution disappeared.
Benedetti says, but one thing is clear: the mind can affect the body's biochemistry. "The relationship between expectation and therapeutic outcome is a wonderful model to understand mind-body interaction," he says. Researchers now need to identify when and where placebo works. There may be diseases in which it has no effect. There may be a common mechanism in different illnesses. As yet, we just don't know."
Hmmmm
