I've been thinking, if a piece of string comes up and inch short for my needs, would a rope suffice?

And if so, would starch aid in performing Indian rope tricks?

I piece of rope is not longer than a piece of string, it's just wider. I suppose that makes your second question void.

No, we can't land on the sun, period.

The birds at the south pole don't fly anywhere for the winter.

I looked at a photo, it's as still as something get, and I didn't see time on that... Perhaps if there's a clock on the picture...

I'd be careful, it's the number sequence from Lost (tv-series).

Are you sure it's not longer? And if it's not, how about I tie two pieces together?

Also, would snap freezing the rope make Indian rope tricks easier than starching it?

If you use hemp rope....is it always a little bent?

does karma really ever get round to bitches? ..or we just make ourselves feel better thinking it does..

Well, it may seem like it does at times. But it's really just random occurences.

You build up your own karma, and you are the one to eventually administer whatever is coming for you. There's nothing more to it.

You be the judge of the accuracy of this. It's how I see things. It's a result of the insane amount of thining I've done over the years.

not a bad answer....not bad at all.....

you have a knack for this....as well as a cool sense of humour...

Dunno... but you'd have to be a little bent to climb one in a Indian rope trick..

Personally, I'd have it attached to a sky hook to be sure... wouldn't wanna get 3/4's the way up and have it go limp, hey!

If you manage to tie two pieces of rope together, I'll be impressed, but it won't be any good for the indian rope trick, the knot will upset the balance.

If you travel into space in a perfect straight line, you'll eventually end up where you started. It means the universe itself is bent.

Thank you. Your questions and replies make me look good.

A friend of mine actually nicked me "Guru Diwanji" a few years ago after I explained my theories about the universe (and meaning of life) to him. I have been considering starting to blog about that for some time now, but I have a true fear about some people actually taking it to heart and follow it religiously. Not that I believe anything that might cause harm, but people who accepts all or nothing in belief scare me. There's nothing factual about the meaning of life, it's all speculation. Things get dangerous when people forget that, no matter how harmless it may seem. Besides, it's darn hard to put it all in writing and maintain some kind of logical order to it.

I think too much, I really do.

Ah, but what if it's a reef knot?

Before I got kicked out of the boy scouts for letting the girl guide, I was told a reef knot tied perfectly had balance and strength.

The knot, yes. The rope, no.
