| During the school year, I have come up with several theories, these are their stories. (blatant law and order rip off) | ||||||||||||||||
| Theory #1: The Froggy Theory.(tm) Is Odysseus in control of his destiny or is it controlled by the gods? Many answer this to be the gods, but I believe he is in control of it because of one part in it. He left Calypso's island. Some say, "How did he get there? EXACTLY?" But I have, The Froggy Theory (tm). Ok, I have a frog. I push him forward, forcing him to go strait, he will not go sideways because I am forcing him forward. Finally, I stop pushing him. He has the choice to decide where to go. Where he ends up will be his fate, or destiny. He chose his destiny. This is the same situation during the Odyssey, Odysseus was pushed along during the begining and middle, basically going along for the ride, however he chose to leave Calypso's island, nobody was making him stay. |

| Theory #2: The F'ed up theory. (named by Roberto) This theory is wrong. I realize that now. But just to show you how much time i had to think about it during geometry, I'll explain it. There are 3 dimensions. Length, width, height. But H.G. Wells describes time as the fourth demension, I believed it was not, but in fact it was thickness. If I have a can of Dr. Pepper, it has length, width, and height, but the thickness of the inside affects how much volume it has. If it is an inch thick, it won't have enough room for soda. I realized however, that the thickness is actually a PART of the volume. Just because it is a part of the outside doesn't mean it isnt part of the volume. | ||||||||||||||||
| Theory #3: Love. Love sucks. But you didn't hear it from me. Girls are good and all (I *heart* you Blair!) but some of you are pretty screwed up. Which is why I'm taking the break. (it's going on till I can drive) I'm gonna lay low until I get to know some keepers. We'll see how it goes from there. Anyway, love. My theory is that to be in love, you have to think it for at least a year, and it can't be physical. For example, if you see a hot blonde walking down the street with a fat man, and they are married, that is love. Imagine how much she'd have to love him non-physically. Unfortunatly some people (50%)are morons and get married then get a divorce.THAT is most definatly not love. | ||||||||||||||||
| Theory #4: Beauty. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and my theory on it is as follows. 1) You want to date the most beautiful person, thats common sense 2) Beauty is based on points, you can get a maximum of 10 points. 3) 6 points is based on personality. You get 3 for being smart, since I like to have intellectual conversations, and you get 3 for being all around nice. 4) The other 4 points is based on physical attractiveness. This is entirely based on how I think you look. Though I'm not picky by any means. 5) to be date-worthy, you have to have 7 points, and it doesn't matter how you get em. However, I have been rethinking my theory, it may be 7 points for personality, 3 points for attractiveness, and you must get 8 points, but that is still being debated. |

| Theory #5: Romeo and Juliet: I came up with this several weeks ago, during school, and I just now write it down, anyway, my definition, a tradgedy is a story where the main character was at a high point in his life, and then does something incredibly stupid and is at a very low point (generally death) This is very true with Romeo and Juliet, however, is it THAT sad of a story? "Two Households, both alike in dignity.... from ancient grudge break new mutiny, where civil blood makes civil hands unclean" That means these two houses have been fighting for a long time (at least 1000 years since it was written around the 1500s, ancient is considered Rome, and the western Roman empire fell in 521ad) So, they have been FIGHTING, and killed each other. At the end, the two houses stop quareling. Good story, despite the death of two "star cross'd lovers". Think about how many MORE people would have died if the two alike in dignity households didn't stop fighting. So in the long run, it's a nice story. And if you believe in an afterlife, they are holding hands with the big guy upstairs. Unless Romeo goes to hell for killing Tybalt. In THAT case it may be a sad story... for the star cross'd lovers. |

| Theory #6: Jesus. I think Jesus was a Democrat. No, seriously, think about it. 1. He healed people, thats free healthcare 2. He kept the food and wine going, thats welfare 3. He got screwed over by the rich (high ranking Jewish leaders/Romans depending on your perspective) 4. In general, he works for the overall welfare of the people such as the Democrats, while the Republicans tend to favor the rich and corporations. |
