Todays news headlines and observations...

[/pine]

Happy Cinco de Mayo to those that celebrate...

But I saw two other headlines on a popular news portal today...both of them pleasing to read...

The first headline read: "Swearing increases physical strength"...Hey, in the back of my mind I knew it (earthy language) had to have some kind of power...best not to be abused though...

The second headline read: "Talking to yourself out loud helps boost brainpower and could indicate higher intelligence" Not sure how scientific the articles are but I'm willing to give them the benefit of doubt...BTW if someone asks if you were talking to yourself...just say "yeah...sometimes I need expert advice"...!

When I talk to myself, I at least get the answers I want to hear.

Might be, but if really hurts my feelings when I talk to myself and get ignored!

Three out of the four voices in my scone agree with the second story. :thumbsup:

When people ask if I am talking to myself, I tell them no, I am talking to me, myself and I. :laughing::laughing::laughing:

I also tell them that the most intelligent conversations I have are with me, myself and I. :shocked:

Later,

There's nothing wrong with talking to yourself as long as you don't get a response.

I talk back to myself a LOT. And I'm not usually very nice!

Sometimes I need expert advice, so I talk to myself.

Then how do you know if you're right? (or wrong)

Two rules;
Rule #1. I am always right.
Rule #2. If you think I may be mistaken, refer to rule # 1.
Even the voices in my head know I am right.
