    When you are dead, you don't know that you are dead. It is only difficult for other people. The same goes for stupid.

      Ooohh, deep.. but how do you know that you don't know that you're dead when you're dead? :laugh:

      How do you know so much about swallows? Well, you have to know these things when you're a king, you know.

      That is honestly a very smart question. This is thinking outside the box. You know you are getting close when you ask the question that cannot be answered. :)

                      Your comment (sadly enough) led to a further level of profundity: You've heard talk of and seen movies about "the undead". Have you ever heard or seen anything about "the unstupid"? Clearly, stupid, then, is more difficult to undo then dead.

                        True. But let's not mention that so we can continue to believe that we only create Heart-breaking Works of Staggering Genius!* *Thank you Dave Eggers, at least your title's are good, even if your writing isn't so much.

                                    I don't get it... Am I dead or just stupid? :confused: I'm hoping for the latter, but please let me know so that I can make arrangements... :doh:
