  Bluetooth Headsets: Geeky or Sexy?

  by Elsewhere in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  as a programmer i am exposed to high technology all the time and ironically this has given me an odd aversion to it!

  i like gadgets and gizmos like anyone else; however i demand it be discrete.

  when i'm out-n-about i want to be connected, but at the same time i don't want anyone to be able to see it.. for years i have avoided the bluetooth headsets that appear to be gaining in popularity, however im still not quite ready to get one because of the obvious geek factor and the simple fact that many people who wear them appear to be making the "look at me, i've fancy" statement.

  LOL funny this topic should come up today as I almost bought one for my cell phone this afternoon. Then I thought of the dorkmirelookishgeekybit and decided I didn't want to go there......I'm already dorky enough and the thought of walking around with one of those goofy looking things on my huge cauliflower ears would just be too much dorkiness even for me.

  I do wish I had one mostly when I'm driving I am sure it's a safer way to talk on your cell phone while driving. I sure wouldn't walk around talking while shopping like some kind of geek, I hate that it's so annoying.

  I do dream a lot, though most of them I don't remember in the morning.

  I have noticed when I'm troubled I dream more and they are much more vivid and detailed. Usually I will dream of people I haven't thought of for years but it always has something to do with my recent troubles. I've gotten into the habit of telling myself when I'm troubled to sleep on it and remind myself to wake up early and write down the dream as much as I can remember of it because usually there is a solution to my current delima somewhere in there.

  One reoccurring dream which I hate is that of drowning, either myself of one of my children or one of my grandchildren. I have no fear of water and can swim well enough but in these dreams I'm always rescuing someone and feeling helpless. Yeah I've pretty much got that one figured out......it's the Mommy thing, sigh.

  As a child I had this reoccurring nightmare which scared the be-jesus outa me, it happened every time a door either the door to our bedroom or our closet was left open. I would wake up and see a circus man on stilts wearing a top hat, a midget and a clown standing in the doorway blocking it so I couldn't get out of my room and run to Mommy and Daddy. They would talk to me and taunt me....I never understood what they said but was paralyzed and scared. To this day I have to have all the doors in my room shut but lately I've noticed I will get up during the night and the stuffiness's of the room makes me leave the door into our room open and so far (knock on wood) I haven't had the nightmare. Whew....I also have hubby baffled on that one because it was a big deal when we first got married how I had to have all the doors shut to the point he made sure they were all shut before retiring.

  I've often heard it said that dreams are a window into our psyche and I do believe that and pay attention to my dreams when I can remember them. There are a lot of books on dreams and how to interpret them but I haven't gotten into doing that although it sounds interesting.

  Oh and for the most part I do have pleasant dreams, sweet dreams.

  No, no god has ever spoken to me.

  Day dreams IMHO are the best kind of dreams because you can totally control them and guide them, plus they do lead to creativity so keep your um...day dreaming job Outaservice! LOL

  Fluff....Do you have a pet that saved you from something?

  back on an early thanksgiving morning many years ago we had 2 siamese cats that were brothers.. the furnace in our basement would throw out a flame when turned on.

  my mom one evening left a broom next to that furnace.

  during the night that broom caught fire, and promptly lit up everything in the basement once ignited.

  My parents had a German Shepherd dog "Devil" when I was a baby and the story my Mom tells is that she would put me outside on a blanket on the grass in our back yard and Devil wouldn't so much as let me near the edge of the blanket, he would nudge me back to the center of it with his nose and sit guard. When any other critter dared try to come near me he would run it off. They also had chickens who had free range of the back yard and I guess you could say he protected me from getting pecked to death by those dirty birds! LOL

  you've been looking hard for errors in the nwt.

  here's one for you: john 14:14. the nwt says: "if you ask anything in my name, i will do it.

  " the w&h text (as given in the interlinear) says: "if you ask me anything in my name, i will do it.".

  And this, ladies and gentleman, is Astro-Theology, the worship of the heavens.

  No truer words. IMHO the whole bible supports the ancients belief in astrology after all what else did they have to look to but the heavens. The Sun of man makes perfect sense to me and was later to become by the Christians the Son of man.

  World War 2 "dog tags"

  doing some yard work last month, i found a ww2 dogtag in the dirt.

  i'd like to return it to the family, but haven't been able to find a way to determine where they are.

  all i could find on the net was a site for the same purpose set up for vietnam vets' tags.. here's how the tag reads:.

  Hopefully when he returns the tags to one of Seth's relatives he might find out how they ended up in his garden!

  That's exactly what we would like to know. Craig was just raking up some leaves in the backyard when he found the dog tag. He's been rotor tilling the entire yard to replant grass and we've found lots of trash few treasures but this one is by far the best find.

  We're pretty excited to get this much feedback on JWD of all places (thank you Leolaia and Been There) we totally exhausted our efforts of finding them on the Net. It was looking like dog tags don't mean much to anyone I was surprised to find that out. The Military doesn't have an interest in them being returned at least no where on the websites could I find a place for returning dog tags to the families. Probably too much trouble....our tax dollars NOT at work, sigh.

  We'll keep y'all updated on what happens next.

  Then I thought -- that is the way I always conclude my calls.
  
  So -- am I being a sissy? What do you think?

  Yo Fats! I gotta say I'ld rather hear a guy simply say bye than bye, bye but that's just me ya sissy!

  Heck it sure beats that stupid one that did not catch on a few years ago......buhbye, now that one was totally lame and sissified even for us womens.

  Ciao dude!
