    Minimus,

    Your hobby specialty, Hillary, must be sanitary napkins, huh?

    No, but very close. HS

    Dear Minimus,

    On the rare occasion when you speak your opinion, versus merely question upon question, you appear extremely wedded to your own point of view as well. Face it, that is human nature. Our opinions are generally there for a reason ... they are important to us, we are invested in being right, we want others to agree with us and see our point of view ... after all it is how WE feel, how WE believe, can't they just see it as so?

    The fact that someone has the audacity to disagree doesn't mean they are arrogant or condescending ... it is typically our reaction that categorizes as such.

    Don Miguel Ruiz says, and I must agree: "Don' take anything personally. Nothing others do is because of you, but merely a projection of their own reality and dream. Become immune to the opinions and actions of others, and you won't be the victim of needless suffering."

    I have never found anyone yet that could find any reason to disagree with my profound words of wisdom.

    If one day I do find a DUMMY person like that I will get back to you.

    It is true that tall people tend to agree with me while height impaired people often disagree, but whenever possible, I remain seated so as not to flaunt my elevated position.

    The other approach that Minimus has seem to perfected is the ability to remain oblivious to anyone's response or opinion that doesn't align with his own.

    If I ignore them, they are not there .... now how is that for condescending???
